When a hypotonic IV fluid is administered, it has a lower concentration of solutes than the red blood cells, causing water to enter the cells. This can lead to cell swelling and potentially bursting (hemolysis). Conversely, when a hypertonic IV fluid is given, it has a higher concentration of solutes, resulting in water leaving the red blood cells, which can cause them to shrink (crenation). Both scenarios can disrupt normal cell function and lead to serious complications.
