23
Q

How does lactated ringers osmolarity compare to that of NS?

A

LR osmolarity is lower than NS.

24
Q

Why is lactate added to LR?

A

Buffering capacity

25
Q

___ will excrete excess water faster than NS.

A

LR

Suppresses ADH secretion, allows for diuresis.

26
Q

Lactate formation relies on what?

A

Hepatic metabolism

27
Q

Why do we not want to give D5W (Dextrose solutions) for volume expansion?

A

water moves freely between all compartments = turns into free water

28
Q

True or False:
Dextrose 5% can be used for caloric intake in diabetics?

A

FALSE:
Dextrose 10% could be used for caloric intake in diabetics

29
Q

What are the hemodilutionary effects of colloid administration?

A
  • ↓ plasma viscosity
  • ↓ RBC aggregation
30
Q

What fluid “class” can have adverse effects on the immune, coagulation, and renal systems?

A

Colloids

31
Q

What is Hetastarch?
What is it derived from?

A

Modified natural polymers of amylopectin derived potato or corn/maize.

32
Q

How much of intravascular volume expansion from hetastarch is still present in the system 90 minutes later?

A

70-80%

33
Q

What are side effects of hetastarch?

A
  • Coagulopathy
  • Renal dysfunction
34
Q

What is Dextran?

A

Highly branched polysaccharide

35
Q

What type of surgery is dextran useful for? Why?

A

Microvascular surgery due to inhibition of clotting cascade.

36
Q

What can dextran interfere with? (besides the clotting cascade)

A

Blood crossmatching due to coating of RBCs

37
Q

What are signs/symptoms of low intravascular volume?

A
  • Tachycardia
  • Decreased Pulse Pressure (Narrow)
  • Hypotension
  • Decreased Cap refill
38
Q

What are signs/symptoms of high intravascular volume?

A
  • ↑ capillary hydrostatic pressure
  • Edema
  • ↓ tissue O₂
  • Poor wound healing
  • Dysfunctional coagulation
39
Q

What are standards for NPO status?

A
40
Q

What is the classic formula for NPO/maintenance fluid replacement?

4-2-1 Rule

A

1st 10kg = 4 mL/kg/hr → 40mL/hr
2ⁿᵈ 10kg = 2 mL/kg/hr → 20mL/hr
Each 1kg over 20kg = 1mL/kg/hr

41
Q

What would the maintenance fluid rate (4-2-1 rule) be for a 110kg patient?

A

40 mL + 20 mL + (90 x 1mL/kg/hr) → 150 mL/hr

42
Q

What would the maintenance fluid rate be for a 18kg toddler?

A

1st 10kg → 40 mL
2ⁿᵈ 8kg → 16 mL

= 56 mL/hr

43
Q

How is fluid deficit replaced in a surgery?

A

½ calculated volume in 1st hour
¼ volume in 2ⁿᵈ hour
¼ volume in the 3rd hour

44
Q

How is fluid deficit calculated?

A

hours NPO x 4-2-1 maintenance rate

45
Q

How is hourly intraoperative volume replacement calculated?

A

Deficit + Maintenance + EBL

46
Q

How much blood do lap sponges hold?
How much blood do Raytech’s hold?
How much blood does a 4x4 hold?

A

100 mL
20 mL
10 mL

47
Q

What would the replacement volume rate be for a surgical case that exhibits minimal (robotic, toe pin, cataract, etc.) evaporative/redistributive volume loss?

A

0-2 mL/kg/hr

48
Q

What would the replacement volume rate be for a surgical case that exhibits moderate evaporative/redistributive volume loss?

A

2-4 mL/kg/hr

49
Q

What would the replacement volume rate be for a surgical case that exhibits severe (open belly) evaporative/redistributive volume loss?

A

4-8 mL/kg/hr

50
Q

How is the Parkland burn resuscitation formula calculated?
What % of TBSA from 2nd or 3rd degree burns are required for initiation of this resuscitative effort?

A

4 mL/kg/ %BSA burned

20% TBSA

51
Q

Why might the Parklands burn formula be altered for kids?

A

Proportions of their body are not equal. Heads are much larger, therefore the head may be a greater % of Total burn

52
Q

How is the volume calculated via the parkland formula given?

A

½ in the 1st 8 hours
½ in the next 16 hours

53
Q

Studies of Goal Directed Therapy have shown decreases in all of these adverse effects of fluid resuscitation:

A
  • Less AKI
  • Less Resp. Failure
  • Less Wound infection
  • Less mortality
54
Q

What are the general characteristics of goal directed therapy?

A
  • Volume administration based on hemodynamics
  • 1-3 mL/kg/hr crystalloid
  • 250cc fluid challenges for ↓SV
  • 1:1 colloids for blood loss
55
Q

What is normal SVV?

(PPV, SPV as well)

A

10 - 15 %

This is over 30 seconds

56
Q

A

Low HR and/or RR
Irregular HR
