Obesity is a term that means you weigh at least 20% more than what is considered a normal weight for your height. It makes you more likely to have conditions including: Heart disease and stroke.
An Isotonic Solution creates a mild, less concentrated salt solution of 9mg of Sodium Chloride per mL of water, which has a similar salt concentration as your body and may be more comfortable to use for some people initially compated to the more concentrated Hypertonic solution.
This type of solution provides free water, sodium, and chloride but does not provide calories or other electrolytes. An example of a hypotonic solution is 0.45% sodium chloride (0.45% NS), commonly called half normal saline.Solutions with an electrolyte content of 375 mEq/L or more are considered hypertonic.Hypertonic solutions are infused to treat patients who have severe hyponatremia.ntravenous (IV) fluids are infused to maintain fluid balance, replace fluid losses, and treat electrolyte imbalances. They are commonly available in volumes ranging from 25 mL to 1,000 mL and are dispensed in either plastic bags or glass bottles.
