4-2-1 is an old estimation for fluid replacement. What is goal directed theraphy and fluid administration is based on?

A
  • Goal: keep CO at a level that delivers appropriate amounts of oxygen to the tissues

Fluid administration based on:
* CVP- not specific
* CO
* SV -determines if they are fluid responsive
* SVV -determines if they are fluid responsive
* SWAN- use declining
* SVO2- measures O2 extraction
* TEE- quantify LV cavity size/EF (not a standard of care)
* lactate levels: decreasing level signals successful resuscitation

Patient will either be fluid responsive or unresponsive. If fluid responsive, a bolus will be administered. Fluid replacement is individualized.

Q

What are the reasons for using GDT (goal directed therapy)?

A

Allows decisions to use:
* more fluid
* vasopressors
* inotropes
* blood products

S41

97
Q

What have studies shown about the results of goal directed therapy?

A
  • Less AKI
  • Less Respiratory Failure
  • Decrease Wound Infection
  • Decrease Mortality

S41

98
Q

What is the maintenance dose for goal directed therapy?

A
  • 1-3 mL/kg/hr of crystalloid

S42

99
Q

For goal directed therapy, a fluid challenge of ___________ mL will be used to increase SV.

A
  • 250 mL

S42

100
Q

What is used in goal directed therapy with blood loss or blood products?

A
  • Colloids 1:1 (1 colloid for every blood product)
  • Did 3:1 in the past

S42

101
Q

What are the LIMITS to arterial waveform pressure monitoring (SVV Monitoring)?

A
  • Low HR/RR
  • Irregular rhythms
  • Mechanical Ventilation w/ Low Vt
  • Increased Abdominal Pressure
  • Thorax Open
  • Spontaneous Breathing

Any of these factors will result in an inaccurate reading on the monitor. Need normal on all of these factors to have SVV

S43

its ironic that patients we would need to measure this on are the patients that this information will not be accurate with, haha

102
Q

What are the 3 different types of monitoring using an aterial line for fluid responsiveness?

A
  • Systolic Pressure Variation
  • Pulse Pressure Variation:
  • Stroke Volume Variation

S44 and lecture

103
Q

How do you utilize Systolic Pressure Variation

A
  • Max systolic pressure -min systolic pressure
  • during one cycle of mechanical breath

Normal: 7-10 mmhg

Increase: volume responsive or have residual prelaod reserve

S44

104
Q

How do you utilize pulse pressure variation?

A
  • The difference between the lowest systolic pressure and the highest diastolic pressure
  • Over entire RR cycle
  • Normal <13-17%
  • >13-17% = positive respone to volume expanson
105
Q

How do you utilize stroke Volume Variation?

A
  • variation of SV in 30 seconds
  • The area under the “curve” (still highest and lowest values)
106
Q

What is normal Stroke Volume Variance (SVV)?

A
  • 10-15%

(erikson: 10-13%)

S44

107
Q
  • For SVV, what do you do if its >15%?
  • What do you do if pt is hypotensive but SVV is normal or low?
A
  • If >15%, patient will be responsive to fluid (give fluid bolus)
  • Pt will not be fluid responsive. Give ionotrpes
