Question 3

The fluid most often used in fluid resuscitation following a major burn injury is:

Accepted Answer

A)  saline. 
B)  albumin. 
C)  lactated Ringer. 
D)  dextrose in water. 
A)  saline. 
B)  albumin. 
C)  lactated Ringer. 
D)  dextrose in water.

Question 4

The renin-angiotensin system compensates for hypovolemic shock by stimulating:

Accepted Answer

A)  antidiuretic hormone from the posterior pituitary to retain potassium and excrete sodium to improve myocardial contractility. 
B)  ß1 adrenergic receptors to increase myocardial contractility,heart rate,and conduction through atrioventricular node. 
C)  aldosterone release,which retains sodium and hence water to increase the blood volume. 
D)  movement of calcium into vascular smooth muscle,causing vasoconstriction and increasing systemic vascular resistance.
