Review deck 2 Flashcards
Describe the maintenance fluid for a 35 kg child
4 mL for first 10
2 mL for second 10
1 mL/kg after
total 75 mL
Normal IV boluses for kids are
10-20 mL/kg
Describe how to estimate blood replacement
[(desired Hct-present Hct) x EBV]/Hct of PRBCs (~60%)
Cardiac arrest in the pediatric patient after receiving succinylcholine
treat for hyperkalemia
CPR should be started when HR is
60 bpm
Pierre Robin Sequence is made up of
hypoplastic mandible (micronathia) pseudo-macroglossia (posterior displacement of tongue) high arched cleft palate
Kids with CP may have
normal intelligence
Patients with CF will have
restrictive lung disease & high peak pressures
CHARGE association is associated with
a difficult intubation
MPS is associated with
a difficult airway
has valvular regurgitation/stenosis
atlantoaxial instability
For a child with down syndrome who experiences bradycardia on induction,
give atropine
Patients with Down syndrome may have
subglottic stenosis
atlantoaxial instability
hypothyroidism
more prone to bradycardia
Unique anatomical features of children include
prominent occiput
An ETT that is too big or overinflated will cause
subglottic edema
Patients undergoing cardiac arrest in the OR need to have
a definitive airway established
After 10 minutes of CPR or unable to obtain an airway,
the ECMO team should be activated
Calculating the 50th percentile weight is
(age x 2)+ 9
Neonates have a higher _________ which requires
ECF volume which requires larger doses of water-soluble drugs
Atropine dosage is
0.02 mg/kg
Adenosine dosage is
0.1 mg/kg
PO versed dosage is
0.5 mg/kg
The pediatric population goes to sleep faster with inhaled anesthetics because
increased RR
decreased FRC
_____ can be used for second gas effect
N2O
