- 1. Intravenous fluids with a higher concentration of dissolved particles than blood plasma
- 2. The movement of solute particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
- 3. Necessary for tissue repair, tissue function, growth, fluid balance, and clotting, as well as energy in the absence of sufficient intake of carbohydrates
