Electrolytes play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis within the body. They help to regulate heart and neurological function, fluid balance, oxygen delivery, acid–base balance and much more. Electrolyte imbalances can develop by the following mechanisms: excessive ingestion; diminished elimination of an electrolyte; diminished ingestion or excessive elimination of an electrolyte. The most serious electrolyte disturbances involve abnormalities in the levels of sodium, potassium or calcium.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

3. Introduction
FUNCTIONS OF BODY FLUIDS
Facilitate in the transport [nutrients, hormones,
proteins,& others]
Aid in removal of cellular metabolic wastes
Provide medium for cellular metabolism
Regulate body temperature
Provide lubrication of musculoskeletal jts. and all
body cavities [parietal, pleural fluids]
3
4. Composition and distribution of
body fluids
Water constitutes 50-70% of total body weight
It depends on age, sex, fat distribution in the
body
The body water is divided in to two functional
compartments, the ECF and ICF
ECF is 1/3 of TBW, composed of plasma (5%),
and interstitial fluid(15%) .
ICF is 2/3 of TBW, constitutes the fluid inside
the cell.

7. Regulation of Fluids in Compartments
Osmosis
Movement of water through a selectively
permeable membrane from an area of low
solute concentration to a higher.
Movement occurs until near equal
concentration found
It is passive process

8. Cont’d
Diffusion
Movement of solutes from an area of higher
concentration to an area of lower
concentration in a solution and/or across a
permeable membrane (permeable for that
solute)
Movement occurs until near equal state
It is passive process
8
9. Cont’d
Active Transport
Allows molecules to move against
concentration and osmotic pressure to
areas of higher concentration
Active process – energy is expended

10. Cont’d
Osmolality - amount of solute or particles
in KG of water.
Osmolality = solute/solvent
Plasma osmolality = 2 x (Na) +
(Glucose/18)+(Urea/2.8)
Normal value ( 275-290mOsm/L )

To maintain homeostasis water intake must
match with water excretion.
Water balance
• Daily Intake of Water
– it is ingested in the form of liquids or water in the food
– it is synthesized in the body as a result of oxidation of
carbohydrates, adding about
• Daily Loss of Body Water
• Insensible Water Loss
• evaporation from the respiratory tract and diffusion
through the skin
• Fluid Loss in Sweat
• Water Loss in Feces
• Kidneys

13. Cont’d
Disturbances in body fluids can be classified into
three:
Disturbance in fluid volume
Disturbance in composition
Disturbance in acid base balance
13
14. Disturbance in fluid volume
Hypovolumia (dehydration)
The lost fluid is not water alone, but water
and electrolytes in approximately the same
proportion as they exist in normal extra
cellular fluid.
Causes include:-
GIT losses,
sequestration of fluids in third space,
excess skin losses.
14
15. Cont’d
Diabetes - the body produces more urine
Kidney disorders- kidneys unable to
concentrate urine as needed
Problems with walking, because getting water
is difficult
Dementia- sense of thirst is reduced and the
ability to get water impaired
Diuretics- increase the of water and salt
excretion
16. Cont’d
Clinical features
Dry skin
Fast pulse
low blood pressure
Low urine out put- [ The kidneys try to
conserve -olig urea / an-urea]
Sunken eyes

17. Cont’d
Mild
(loss: 5% of body weight): decresed skin turgor,
sunken eyes, dry mucous membranes
Moderate
(loss: 10 % of body weight): + oliguria,
orthostatic hypotension, tachycardia
Severe
(loss: 15% of body weight): + hypotension,
decreased level of consciusness, stupor
18. Treatment for dehydration
involves replacing lost fluids.
Mild dehydration - 2 to 3 liters of water to drink
over a period of a few hours.
Moderate dehydration - Add some salt (sodium)
and other electrolytes. Rehydration formulas
(available without a prescription)
Severe Dehydration –
INTRAVENOUS REPLACEMENT.
I/V also for those who cannot swallow, and
those who are in a coma. If electrolytes must
also be replaced, they are given intravenously
with the fluids.

22. Disturbance in composition
Sodium (Na+)
It is the most abundant cation of the extra
cellular fluid. 90 % of total ECF cations
Normal value is 135- 145mom/l
Daily requirement of sodium is 1.2-2moml/kg
Most important ion in regulating water balance
Important in nerve and muscle function.
22
23. Cont’d
Hyponatremia
Defined as Sodium level < 135mmol/L
Abnormalities of sodium concentration
commonly result from alteration in
water balance
Most hyponatremias are as a result of
too much water not too little salt
Results from excess Na loss or water
gain
23
24. Causes of hyponatremia
1. Volume depletion, sodium and water depletion.
Most frequent cause of sodium and water
depletion in surgery is SBO, Duodenal, Biliary,
pancreatic and high intestinal fistula are also
causes of hyponatremia.
2. Water intoxication with excess volume and
edema, over-prescribing of IV 5% and colorectal
washouts with plain water and TURP syndrome
24
26. Management
A low sodium level - restored to a normal by
gradually and steadily giving sodium and
water Orally/intravenously
Over rapid correction may result in Dangers of
central pontine myelinosis
26
28. Hypernatremia
Na+ more than 145 mmol
Causes
Excessive water loss in burns or sweating, insensible losses
through the lungs.
Excess amount of 0.9% saline solution is given IV during the
early operative period
where there is some degree of retention of sodium.
Clinical feature
Depending on the cause it can be of fluid excess or fluid
deficit 28
29. Clinical feature
Neuro - Spontaneous muscle spasms , Skeletal muscle
weakness , diminished deep tendon reflexes
Resp. – Pulmonary edema
CV – Diminished CO, HR and BP depend on vascular
volume
GU – Decreased urine output.
Skin – Dry skin. Edema .

30. Management of hypernatremia
usually consists of treatment of the associated water
deficit
In hypovolemic patients, volume should be restored
with normal saline
Water deficit(L)= serum Na+ -140 X TBW
140
decrease in serum sodium of no more than 1 mEq/h

31. Disorders Of Potassium Balance
Hypokalemia
causes
Diarrhea or vomiting for a long time.
Enterocutaneos fistula
Diuretic.
Symptoms
Mild decrease no symptoms.
The body tends to produce less insulin. As a result, the
level of sugar in the blood may increase.
Moderate fatigue, confusion, and muscle weakness
cramps .
Severe paralysis and abnormal heart rhythms
(arrhythmias).
31
32. Hypokalemia-Treatment
Potassium supplements by mouth as a
tablet or liquid or eating foods rich in
potassium.
Potassium-sparing diuretic –In People on
diuretics - reduces the amount of
potassium excreted .
IV-supplement in surgical cases
32
33. Hyperkalemia
A high potassium level (hyperkalemia) is
much more dangerous than a low potassium
level.
Most common causes
Renal failure
Drugs that reduce the amount of potassium
excreted by the kidneys.
diuretic spironolactone and angiotensin-converting
enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (used to lower blood
pressure). When a person who takes one of these
drugs also eats potassium-rich foods or takes a
potassium supplement, the kidneys cannot always
excrete the potassium.
33
34. Cont’d
The first symptom of a high potassium
level may be an abnormal heart rhythm.
Electrocardiography (ECG) may help with
the diagnosis. This procedure can detect
changes in the heart's rhythm that occur
when the potassium level is high.
34
35. Hyperkalemia Treatment
Stop eating potassium-rich foods and stop taking
potassium supplements.
Drugs that cause the body to excrete excess
potassium, such as diuretics.
If the potassium level is very high or is increasing,
treatment must be started immediately.
Then diuretics – Frusemide prevents potassium from
being re-absorbed are given to reduce the amount of
potassium in the body. These drugs may be given
intravenously, taken by mouth, or given as enemas.

36. Disorder of Calcium balance
Hypocalcaemia: result when a disorder such as;.
Hypoparathyroidism- if the parathyroid glands
are removed or damaged during neck surgery.
Deficiency of vitamin D. [Vitamin D helps the
body absorb calcium ]
Certain drugs, such as the anticonvulsants
phenytoin and phenobarbital, can interfere
with the processing of vitamin D, resulting in a
deficiency of vitamin D.

39. Cont’d
Hypercalcaemia: Symptoms;
A slight increase in the calcium level may
not cause any symptoms.
A very high level can result in dehydration
because it causes the kidneys to excrete
more water.
A very high level can also cause loss of
appetite, nausea, vomiting, and confusion.
A person may even go into a coma and die.
