REPLACEMENT

19
Q

What type of VOLUME THERAPY?

Goal is to PREVENT Dehydration
consider BOTH sensible & insensible losses

A

MAINTENANCE

20
Q

CRYSTALLOID
Volume Therapy

A

FLUID + ELECTROLYTES
replaces water & electrolytes

readily available / better tolerated / 1st line

Ex:
0.45% / 0.9% NaCl // LR // D5W

21
Q

COLLOID
Volume Therapy

A

PRBC / Albumin 5% / 25% hetastarch
HUMAN PRODUCTS

used for I_ntravascular Volume (IVF) EXPANSION_

large molecules stay in the VASCULAR space

22
Q

ISOTONIC
Replacement Fluid Tonicity

A

SImilar to Plasma, no fluid shifts

0.9% NaCl & LR’s

23
Q

HYPERtonic
​Replacement Fluid Tonicity

A

GREATER than PLASMA

IC –> EC fluid shifts
intracellular to extracellular

3% NaCl

24
Q

HypoTonic
​Replacement Fluid Tonicity

A

< 150 mOsm/L
flows BACK <– into Intracellular Space
EC –> IC

0.2% NaCl

25
Q

Crystalloid Characteristics

A

Dextrose 5% is isotonic
hypotonic solution

BUT it causes increases in ICF / ISF / IVF

  • Dextrose is slowly distributed
26
Q

Colloid Characteristics

NO Intracelular Movement

A
27
Q

Lactated Ringers & 0.9% NaCl
USES

LR contains K+, not good for patients with RENAL failure

A

Useful for hypotensive patients

IVF EXPANSION
(intravascular)

Since they are ISOTONIC, there is no fluid shift
does NOT enter any cells

commonly used in general surgery / neurosurgical poulations
since there is a LOSS of a lot of blood –> need to expand volume

28
Q

D5W
Uses

A
  • *ISOTONIC**
  • BUT it* INCREASES ICF / ISF / IVF

The Dextrose provides OSMOTIC Activity to prevent hemolysis

Effective admin of a hypotonic solution“free water”

Watch out for:
HYPERglycemia &hypoNatremia

29
Q

0.45% NaCl or 0.45% NaCl/D5W

USES

A

Able to REPLACE MORE Free water vs NS

Useful in:
HYPERNatremic Patients
&
Replacing INSENSIBLE water loss
dextrose can add calories

30
Q
  • *RESUSCITATION**
  • *Management of HypoVolemia**
A

*ONLY if S/Sx of SHOCK
Bolus Dosing with 250-1000mL of
0.9% NaCl or LR
goal is to EXPAND IVF volume, need blood purfusion –> vital organs FIRST

Monitor:
BP / HR / Urine Output / CNS symptoms

MAY REPEAT if still SYMPTOMATIC

31
Q

REPLACEMENT
Management of HypoVolemia

A
  • *Calculate:**
  • *FREE WATER DEFICIT**
  • based on SODIUM concentrations*
32
Q

MAINTENANCE
Management of HypoVolemia

A

Goal is to:
Prevent Dehydration
while administering daily water requirements

check comorbidities
revie patient’s electrolytes
&
nutritional status

33
Q

Daily Fluid Requirements
(Maintenance)
Based on Volume Status
Dehydration / Post-OP / Euvolemia / Elderly or CHF

A
  • *Dehydation**
  • *45** mL/kg/day
  • *Post-Operative**
  • *40** mL/kg/day
  • *Euvolemia**
  • *35** mL/kg/day
  • *Elderly or CHF**
  • *30** mL/kg/day
34
Q

Daily Fluid Requirement
(Maintenance)
Alternative Method - PEDIATRICS

A
  • *for the 1st 10kg**
  • *100** mL/kg/day
  • *for the 2ND 10kg**
  • *50**​ mL/kg/day
  • *for WEIGHT > 20kg**
  • *20** mL/kg/day
35
Q

What Fluid & how much for this patient?

Post-OP patient with EBL of 500ml
(estimated blood loss)

A

FIRST
LR or 0.9% NaCl @ 40 mL/kg/day
useful in surgery - loss of a lot of blood // post-op pt

after 24 hours, THEN
D5W/0.45% NaCl @ 35 mL/kg/day
??? // euvolemic (normal volume)

36
Q

What Fluid & how much for this patient?

HypoTensive Patient

A

LR or 0.9% NaCl @ 45 mL/kg/day

useful in HypoTensive Patients
&
low BP will lead to AVP release –> WATER excretion
dehydration is 45 mL/kg/day

37
Q

What Fluid & how much for this patient?

NPO Cardiac patient w/ K+ level 3.4 mEq/L

A

D5W/0.45% NaCl + KCl 20 mEq @ 30 mL/kg/day

Normal K+ levels are 3.5-5.0​ mEq/L, patient is hypoKalemic
to correct the hypokalemia along with the KCL tabs

30 mL/kg/day –> CARDIAC PATIENT (CHF)

38
Q

What Fluid & how much for this patient?

NPO Patient for an elective procedure

A

D5W/0.45% NaCl @ 35 mL/kg/day

not an EMERGENCY / sudden surgery, likely no blood loss
need to add calories?
replace free water &
insensible water losses

35 because euvolemic (normal volume)

39
Q

Assessment of TOXICITY

A
  • *FLUIDs = DRUGS**
  • *volume overload is a COMMON PROBLEM**
  • if not MONITORED properly*:

Monitor:
Daily weight / Labs / Physical Exam

S/Sx:
Pulmonary + Peripheral Edema // Heart Failure
serum Osm // ↓Na+
reduction of pOsm, means EXCESS water

40
Q

pOsm
IMPLIES WHAT?
(osmolarity, qualitative measure of TBW)

A

EXCESS OF WATER

can be HYPERvolemic

41
Q

­­↑ pOsm
IMPLIES WHAT?

(osmolarity, qualitative measure of TBW)

A

LACK OF WATER

HypoVolemic

42
Q

Use for COLLOID Solutions
5% Albumin // 25 % Albumin
no intracellular movement

A

for INTRAVASCULAR VOLUME EXPANSION
4x GREATER
IVF expansion vs equal volume of crystaloid

BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS
packed RBC’s = PRBC

43
Q
  • *Colloid Solutions**
  • *Albumin Uses**
A

5% is adminstered in 250mL doses

25% is admin in 50-100mL doses
25% is DIFFERENT because
fluid flows from ISF (negative) –> IVF
interstitial –> intravascular
