IV fluid therapy Flashcards
What is the formula for enteral/isotonic balanced electrolyte fluid therapy?
-table salt (noniodized): 14 cc
-lite salt: 2.5 cc Lite salt
-baking soda : 11 cc
-water: 4 liters of water
What is the 60-40-20 rule?
60% of total body weight is water
40% of total body weight is intracellular fluid
20% of total body weight is extracellular fluid
What is the normal osmolality made up of (280-300 mosm)
{2X (Na +K)} + (glucose/18) + (BUN/2.8)
**some sources choose to exclude potassium (b/c small) or BUN (ineffective osmole)
blood Pressure=
simple equation
flow (cardiac output) X resistance (total peripheral resistance)
Stroke volume equation
End-diastolic volume - end-systolic volume
Cardiac output equation
HR X SV
blood Pressure =
{HR x (end-diastolic volume-end systolic volume)} x total peripheral resistance
What is central venous pressure of adults and foals?
adults: 5-15 cmH2O
foals: 2-12 cm H2O
What is the equation for fractional excretion?
{(serum creatinine)/ (urine creatinine)} x {(urine electrolyte)/ (serum electrolyte)}
What is normal FE of sodium?
<1%
causes of pseudohypernatremia
hyperlipemia
hyperproteinemia
What electrolyte abnormalities are seen with a ruptured bladder?
hyponatremia
hypochloremia
hyperkalemia
peritoneal fluid crea 2x that of systemic creainine
Describe the characteristics of syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone
-increased concentrations of ADH
-decreased osmolality
-Normovolemia
-inappropriate urinary concentration
-increased urinary sodium
**r/o kidney & endocrine disorders
What is the hyponatremia correction rate?
0.5 mEq/h
What is the hourly fluid rate in adults and neonates?
adults: 2-3 ml/kg/hour
neonates: 4-6 ml/kg/hour (double that of adults)
When on fluids, what should be the urine production rate?
urine production should be half of the fluid rate
What is the dextrose CRI rate?
adult: 1-2 mg/kg/min
neonates: 4-8 mg/kg/min
what is the osmolarity of hypertonic saline (7.2% NaCl)?
2462 mOsm/L
what is the dose of hypertonic saline?
4-5 ml/kg IV once
What are the advantages of hypertonic saline?
-volume expansion (increases plasma volume 3-4x the volume administered)
-anti-edema
-immunomodulation & anti-inflammatory
-anti-apoptosis
-free radical scavenge
-inhibition of leukoactivation
-prevention of immunosuppression
-positive inotrope by improving (INC end-diastolic volume, leading to inc stroke volume and inc CO— effect lasts 1 hour following infusion)
How much is a shock bolus?
60-90 ml/kg IV once
*dividing equally into three separate doses (ie: 20 ml/kg three times)
*stop when you see PINK-PERK-PEE
What are doses of hetastarch?
2-10 ml/kg IV once
What are contraindications for hetastarch administration?
renal disease
coagulopathies
For any electrolyte correction, what is the quation?
mEq to be infused = volume of distribution X body weight (kg) X deficit
What is the volume of distribution in foals vs adults?
foals: 60%= 0.6
adults: 30% =0.3
For neonates, what is the goal to which to restore the sodium level if hyponatremic?
125 mmol/L
**calculated amount of sodium required in first 6 hours to raise sodium level to 125 mmol/L
what is the maximum rate for sodium administration?
0.5 mEq/kg/hour
1 gram of baking soda has how much HCO3
12 mEq
isotonic bicarbonate is what osmolarity?
150 mmol/L
