A patient has a prescription to receive d5w with 20 meq kcl/l at 100 ml/hour. The nurse would select  5% dextrose in water with 20 mEq of KCl from the iv supply cart. D5W stands for 5% dextrose in water, which is different from normal saline, half normal saline, or lactated Ringer's.

A kind of glucose is dextrose (sugar). A vein receives an IV injection of 5% dextrose in water to replenish lost fluids and give the body carbs. Dehydration, insulin shock, and low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) are all treated with D5W (fluid loss).

Because it can impact prognosis, the selection of intravenous infusion products for critically sick patients has been extensively researched. There hasn't been much investigation on drug diluents in this setting, though.

The goal of this study is to assess how the diluent (saline or 5% dextrose in water [D5W]) choice affects electrolyte imbalances, blood glucose management, the frequency of acute kidney damage (AKI), and mortality.

How was the Toorale Man found?
jekas [21]

Answer:

An aboriginal skeleton that was discovered in 2012 on the banks of Darling river in Tootale National Park is known as Toorale Man. The skeleton's facial bones were damaged and had deep and fatal wounds. The wound stretched from the forehead to the mouth.

Initially, it was believed that the wound was caused by metal blades and the man died in the violence between the aboriginals and European settlers. But the radiocarbon dating revealed that the man died much earlier, almost 700 years ago. It raised several questions about the use of metal by aboriginals because metal arrived in Australia with Macassan Fisherman in the north and then with the European settlement.

His skull was lying on a washed pile of sand and was arranged in a fetal position and his skull was sticking out.
