FEN Flashcards
what is the 60-40-20 rule?
60% of body weight is water,
40% is ICF,
20% is ECF (5% plasma, 15% ISF)
what are the Starling forces?
hydrostatic pressure drives fluid into ICF, oncotic pressure sucks it back out
how is blood osmolarity calculated? what is a normal value?
2×Na + BUN/2.8 + gluc/18
normally 285-300 mOsm/L
what is normal urine osm? what controlls this?
70-1200 mOsm/L
controlled by ADH
fluids to give to:
- dehydrated
- trauma
- std maintenance
- hypernatremic
NS: good for dehydrated pts
LR: good for trauma pts
D5½NS: standard maintenance fluid
D5W: good for hypernatremic pts
how to calculatd MIVF for 24 hrs
vs
1 hr
100-50-20 rule: maintenance fluids for 24 hrs
100 mL/kg for first 10 kg, then 50 for next 10 kg, then 20 for each kg over
4-2-1 rule: maintenance fluids for 1 hr
4 mL/kg for first 10 kg, then 2 for next 10 kg, then 1 for each kg over
causes water reabsorption (V2, aquaporins) and vasoconstriction (V1)
ADH
aldo effect on electrolytes
↑Na, ↓K, ↓H
PTH effect on electrolytes
↑Ca, ↓P, ↑vit D
calcitonin effect on electrolytes
↓Ca, ↓P
effect of Vit D
↑Ca, ↑P
what causes hypernatremia?
tx?
water loss due to 6 Ds –
Diuresis, Dehydration, Diabetes insipidus, Docs (iatrogenic), Diarrhea,
Diseases
Tx PO fluids > IV fluids (correct gradually due to risk of cerebral edema)
MCC hyponatremia
management
SIADH
Tx water restriction + NS (correct gradually due to risk of central pontine myelinolysis)
etiologies of hyperK
management?
renal failure
K-sparing diuretics
release from dead tissue (crush injury, ischemic bowel, etc.)
- first, confirm w/ repeat blood draw
- Dx EKG (peaked T waves, sine waves)
- Tx C BIG K DIE – calcium gluconate, bicarb insulin-glucose, kayexalate, dialysis (if severe)
etiologies of hypoK
management?
diarrhea, vomiting, diuretics
KCl (<10 mEq/hr)
*give 10mEq per 0.1 inc
etiologies of hyperCa
management?
hyperparathyroidism (MCC outpt), cancer (MCC inpt)
get EKG (short QT) • Tx “flush and drain” (NS + furosemide), bisphosphonates if mild
etiologies of hyperMg
management?
renal failure
Tx IV calcium gluconate + NS + furosemide
