How do we prepare a normal saline?
Yes this saline is a hypertonic solution but 3% saline is also not normal. There is nothing "normal" about it. There is only one "normal saline" and that is 0.9%.
infusion doesnt get diluted or mixed and goes straight into a patients iv, where as irrigation is usually mixed with a powdered drug, such as antibotics, then given as an injection
Normal Saline is an isotonic solution.
Normal saline
It is saline that has twice the concentration of salt as normal saline. Normal saline is 0.9% NaCl, so twice normal is 1.8% NaCl. Now I have a question. Is this ever given to patients?
normal saline composition is same as body fliud
normal saline is 0.85%w/v NaCl whlist physiological saline is 0.90% w/v NaCl.
