Q: Prevention in the disease process before occurrence of disease is?

Q: Solution not Isotonic to Plasma?
5% Dextrose
Red cells placed in normal saline (ie 0.9% saline) will not swell so normal saline is said to be isotonic.Ganong argues that an infusion of 5% dextrose is initially isotonic but that when the glucose is taken up and metabolised by cells, the overall effect is of infusing a hypotonic solution.
