      III. Dehydration. Factors producing dehydration: Dehydration or contraction of the body fluid compartments will occur whenever the loss of water and salt exceeds the intake. Fever, sweating and diarrhea produce losses in excess of normal, but if intake remains good, patients will often be able to compensate for the increased losses.

      Dehydration (synthesis) is when water is removed from adjacent atoms (of molecules) to form a bond between them. Hydrolysis (degradation) is when water is used to break bonds between molecules. Water is an excellent temperature buffer. absorbs and releases heat very slowly. d.Water provides an excellent cooling mechanism.

      Dehydration causes an increase in heart rate, both at rest and during exercise. Resting heart rate increased by 5% in subjects who were dehydrated by 4% of their body weight (5). During exercise at 65% of VO2max, dehydration by 0.9% caused an elevation of heart rate by 10 ( 2 beats/min while 2.8% dehydration caused an elevation by 18(2 beats ...

      Metabolic alkalosis is an acid–base imbalance where the pH is greater than 7.45 and the bicarbonate level is greater than 26 mEq/L. There is an excess of base in the body and a loss of acid. Basically, pH is increased due to bicarbonate increase. _ Metabolic means the “kidneys”, which involve bicarbonate and H+.

      dehydration - Water loss exceeds water intake over a period of a time resulting in a negative fluid balance. Causes: hemorrhage, prolonged vomiting/diaherra, profuse sweating. hypotonic hydration (water intoxication) - cellular overhydration - excess water present in the ECF results in net osmosis of water into cells
