Why does IV contrast cause fluid shifts?

its to do with osmotic pressure and osmolality of the iv contrast, usually when a hypertonic solution is injected it pushes the ECF (extra cellular fluid) into blood plasma, this is because the solution has a greater osmotic pressure and osmolality than normal fluid.

Albumin is a colloid solution that helps to expand plasma volume in the body by increasing the oncotic pressure within the blood vessels. This can be beneficial in cases of severe dehydration, such as in patients with hypovolemic shock, as it helps to improve blood flow to vital organs and increase circulating volume.

What effect would an IV containing pure HCO3- in an isotonic solution have on blood pH?

An IV containing pure HCO3- in an isotonic solution would increase the blood pH. HCO3- is a base that can combine with excess H+ ions in the blood, helping to neutralize acidity and raise pH levels. This process can be beneficial in conditions such as metabolic acidosis.


Is it bad to use an IV that contains only plain water?

A: Yes. Inserting plain water into an IV can kill a patient. The solution must be made of saline, an isotonic solution of sodium chloride and distilled water. If the IV is made of plain water, then it will be hypotonic to blood cells, causing them to burst.
