overinfusion

A

weight gain, increased urine output >2ml/kg/hr, cough, can be fatal

41
Q

electrolyte imbalance

A

caused by underlying disease or fluid therapy
cardiac changes, muscle weakness

42
Q

CRI

A

constant rate infusion
avoids peaks and troughs in pain managment, analgesia etc

43
Q

multimodal analgesia CRI

A

delivering several analgesic drugs at the same time to cover different pain pathways

44
Q

CRI calculation

A
  1. IVF rate mls/hr
  2. hours in bag - bag size (mls) /fluid rate = hrs
  3. drug dose /hr - mg/kg/hr x kg = mg/kg
  4. total mg - mg/hr x hours in bag = total mg
    5 mls added to bag - total mg / concentration (mg/ml) = ml
45
Q

Potassium chloride KCI

A

mmol/l or mEq/ml
1. fluid rate - ml/hr
2. what you want / what you have (mEq/ml)
3. mEq/hr - mEq/ml x ml/hr

46
Q

MAX KCI

A

0.5mEq/kg/hr
