Thank you ! I’ve been trying to understand this for some time now and your video made it make sense. In a sense, you’re measuring the amount of particles in the body, which is referring to electrolytes in the blood.... not fluid. Dehydration cause an increase in osmolality (due to the retention of electrolytes) and Over hydration/SIADH, cause a decrease in osmolality.

Thank you for this video, I'm learning about HHNK and it talks about the blood being hyperosmolar. After watching this explanation of what osmolality is, it helps me understand it. Thank you again!

Thanks love I can finally move to my next lesson 🥰 you are a born life saver

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I am currently taking Medsurg, and after seeing this video the increase and decrease in osmolality in SIDAH and DI finally make sense to me!! Thank You!

Normal blood norm values: 280-300 mOsm kg

Thank you! It makesmsense now.

Thank you, it helped

Wow thanks I understand it now

I finally get it... Thank you so much!!

I know. Yesterday I had the exam and I was not the only person who was clueless about this topic. The lab exam had a lot of this osmo thing. 😢

Sometimes NURSING professors do that because they expect you to retain this information from your prerequisites. That's why it's so important to pay attention in biochem and organic chem and learn how to do stoichiometry there instead of nursing school when you won't have time! BTW stoichiometry and "dimensional analysis" = same thing. So pay attention in your pre-reqs. They're not just something to get over with. They're ultra important.

This whole time I thought osmolarity had to do with water more so than particles
