The nurse, caring for a patient in hypovolemic shock, will not utilize a hypotonic solution for fluid resuscitation because hypotonic solutions:
1. Move quickly into the interstitial spaces and can cause third spacing
2. Stay longer to expand the intravascular space but deplete intracellular fluid levels
3. Do not stay in the intravascular space long enough to expand the circulating blood volume
4. Need a smaller bore needle to run at a slower rate to keep the intravascular space low
