Q

Features of compensated shock?

A
  1. Tachycardia is often the first and most sensitive vital sign change.
  2. Blood flow is redirected from nonvital organs and tissues to vital organs by a selective increase in systemic vascular resistance (SVR), resulting in reduced peripheral perfusion and decreased urine volume.
  3. Cardiac contractility increases to maintain cardiac output.
  4. Increased venous smooth muscle tone improves preload and stroke volume

Indicated in children who cannot be fed enterally

37
Q

What are maintenance fluids?

A
  • Estimates the volume required per kg to maintain hydration in healthy children
  • Accounts for insensible losses (from breathing, through the skin)
  • Allows for excretion of the daily excess solute load (urea, creatinine, electrolytes, etc) in a volume of urine with similar osmolarity to plasma
38
Q

Maintenance fluids does not include?

A
  1. Replacement for ongoing losses (diarrhea, vomiting drainage)
  2. Deficit replacement(dehydration)
39
Q

Composition of maintenance fluids?

A
  1. Electrolytes
    - sodium, potassium, and chloride
  2. Water
  3. Glucose
    - provides 20% of normal caloric needs, prevents starvation ketoacidosis and diminishes the protein degradation that would occur if the patient received no calories
