 In your review of evidence, you locate a quasi-experimental research study as possible evidence to support a practice change. You notice that the study aims to make a prediction that relates to correlation between study variables. The study sample size is large and normally distributed. Reflect upon this scenario to address the following.

· In your appraisal of the evidence, you note that an independent variable is not present and that a Spearman’s ranked correlation is used to analyze data. Is this the correct level of correlational analysis? Explain your rationale.

· Are association and correlational analysis equivalent in determining relationships between variables?

· Do these findings impact your decision about whether to use this evidence to inform practice change? Why or why not?

Fluid, Electrolyte, and Acid-Base Balance
1. You are a nurse who frequently cares for post-surgical patients in your hospital unit. Most of the medical-surgical patients have IV fluids infusing during their admission. Due to the frequent use of IV fluids on your floor, understanding fluid balance and electrolyte function is primary to your nursing practice. 
a. What conditions might lead to the development of hypovolemia?
b. How would the amount of patient fluid loss be determined?
c. Describe how hypovolemia and third-space fluid shifts correlate.
d. Outline the major difference between hypovolemia and third-space fluid shift.
e. Which conditions can result in third-space fluid shift?
2. You are a nurse in a nonsurgical cardiac unit caring for a 92-year-old patient who has two sons, 15 grandchildren, and 49 great-grandchildren. She lives in assisted living and has a history of congestive heart failure (CHF). She consistently struggles with balancing her fluids and electrolytes and has an affinity for dill pickles and sauerkraut. While hospitalized, she remains on a fluid restriction—much to her chagrin, as she loves ice cream. 
a. What within her history would indicate she was at risk for hypervolemia?
b. How would dill pickles and sauerkraut impact her fluid volume?

c. What body areas offer observational evidence of excessive interstitial extracellular fluid (ECF)?
d. Why would your patient be on a strict fluid restriction while hospitalized?
e. Outline nursing interventions used while a patient is on fluid restriction.
