IV Soution Question

What type of IV solution would be administered to a client brought to the ER following a MVA? Isotonic, Hypotonic, or Hypertonic? This question is making me crazy!!!

Thanks!

Assuming this patient is bleeding I would say isotonic to avoid fluid volume deficit. Hypertonic goes from blood vessels to cells but causes dangerous fluid shifts and is used less commonly. Hypo goes from cells to blood vessels and is more often used for edema & burns. So it all comes down to the major diagnosis.
