Osmolality of BF •Directly related to the concentration of solutes in the solution •The higher the solute concentration, the greater the osmotic pressure and the greater the tendency of water to move into the solution
Normal OPP = cation(151) + anion(139) + nonelectrolyte (10) = 300mmol/L(280 ~ 310mmol/L)

Sodium (Na +) ❚ most abundant cation in ECF ❚ creates osmotic pressure of ECF ❚ N=130-150 mmol/L ❚ essential for electrical activity of neurons and muscle cells 16
Sodium balance ❚ Intake: 100-200 mmol/day ❚ Output : urine, sweat ❚ Sodium balance is regulated by kidney

CASE PRESENTATION ❚ An 84-year-old woman was brought to the hospital because she was lethargic and refused to drink. On admission, she weighed 60 kg. Her blood pressure was 100/60mmHg with a pulse of 110 per minute and poor skin turgor. laboratory examination revealed a BUN of 100mg/dl, sodium of 170mEq/L, potassium of 4.0Eq/L, and CO2 of 24mmol/L. serum creatine was 2.5mg/dl. Urinalysis showed a specific gravity of 1.030, no protein, glucose, or acetone was present. urine sodium was 5mEq/L and urine osmolality 59 726mOsm/L.
Questions ❚ What kind of disorders of water and sodium metabolism happened to this patient? ❚ What’s the primary reason for the water and sodium imbalance?
