Because saline, often called salt, contains a lot of sodium. Sodium is very bad for you because it increases your blood pressure. When your blood pressure increases, your arteries and organs can be harmed.
Normal Saline 0.9% is called an isotonic solution. A 0.0% saline solution is called a hypotonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse into the red blood cells and cause them to burst open. A 10% saline solution is called a hypertonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse out of the red blood cells, making them shrivel up and shrink.
0.35% saline
Injecting a patient with a 10 percent saline solution would create an osmotic effect by drawing water from the cells into the bloodstream to help balance the concentration of solutes. This can lead to an increase in blood volume and blood pressure due to the additional solutes. The osmotic effect can also affect the hydration status of the patient's cells and tissues.
To make a 9 percent saline solution, start by preparing a 100 percent salt solution. With a bottle of 100 percent salt water, take 9 percent and dilute with distilled water to make a 9 percent saline solution.
This is a isotonic saline solution.
There are 90 mg of saline per 1 ml of 9% saline solution.
Saline solution should always be in given as a concentration of 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl).
0.9%
yes it is isotonic solution.
This is an isotonic saline solution; 9 g/L sodium chloride solution in water with added glucose.
If you think to an isotonic solution the concentration is 0,9 g NaCl/100 g solution.
Let x = the amount of 20% solution Let x + 10 = the amount of the final solution. So we have: (.20)x + (.50)(10) = (.40)(x + 10) .20x + 5 = .40x + 4 .20x = 1 x = 5 liters of 20% solution of saline.
