Metabolic ALKALOSIS (they lost acid)

42
Q

A

Acid stays

43

CAN have:

  • Ricelytes
  • Pedialytes
  • Unsweetened jello

CANT have:
Fruit juice

48
Q

Progress to soft complex CHO foods

*no greasy or spicy foods and progress as tolerated for older adults

49
Q

Diet for vomiting and diarrhea general guidelines for infants?

-No milk or milk products for _____ (unless ordered by doctor)

A

24-48 hours

50
Q

Diet for vomiting and diarrhea general guidelines for infants?

Day 2?

A
  • May have SOY formula for 2 days, then return to regular formula
  • May begin with 1/2 strength formula for 24 hours and then back to regular
51
Q

Diet for vomiting and diarrhea general guidelines for infants?

Day 3?

A

Infant full strength formula

52
Q

***For test and ATI, continue to ____ or ____ UNLESS they are on an oral rehydration diet!

A

Breast feed or formula feed

53
Q

Where do we check skin turgor for infants?

A

Inner thigh or abdomen

54
Q

Severe diarrhea management: If we start an IV and they haven’t urinated, should we put potassium in?

A

NO

55
Q

What is the most common type of dehydration in children? Why?

A

ISOTONIC—you catch it early enough before it progresses to hypo or hyper

56
Q

Calculation of percentage weight loss?

A
  1. Subtract childs present weight from original weight to get the loss
  2. Divide loss by childs original weight
57
Q

Present weight: 28 lbs

Original weight: 31 lbs

A

31 (original)- 28 (presnet)= 3 lbs

3 (loss) / 31 (original)= 0.09

9% weight loss

58
Q

If V/D continue and progresses to severe dehydration, what do we do?

A

Admit for IV therapy

59
Q

When pt comes in with severe dehydration, we need to admit them for IV therapy. What happens in ED before they are admitted?

A

10-20 ml/kg of normal saline boluses are give and repeated 2-3 times, then IV fluids are begun

60
Q

We DO NOT add potassium to IV until patient has voided. Why?

A

Initial therapy is used to expand ECF volume quickly and improve circulatory and renal function …….Potassium is WITHHELD until kidney function (renal) is restored and circulation has improved!

61
Q

If circulation does not improve, what happens?

A

SHOCK

62
Q

What is a late sign of shock?

A

Low BP

63
Q

Allergy

67
Q

Regardless of type of shock, what do we do?

A

ABC

68
Q

If child has shock, and is not breathing do we do ABC or CAB?

A

CAB

69
Q

What is shock patho?

A

Lose blood= diminished venous return= decreased CO and BP

70
Q

Shock signs?

A
  • Cool, cold, clammy skin
  • Poor cap refill
  • Reduced urine output
  • Anaerbobic metabolism= ACIDOSIS
  • Tachycardia, tachypnea
  • LOC changes (parent tells this)
71
Q

Early or late signs of shock:

  • Tachycarida
  • Delayed cap refill
  • Fussy, irritable
A

Early

72
Q

Early or late signs of shock:

  • BRADYcardia
  • Change in LOC
  • Hypotonia
  • Cheyne stokes
  • HYPOtension
A

Late

73
Q

Early or late shock: tachycardia

A

Early

74
Q

Early or late shock: bradiacardia

A

Late

75
Q

Stages of shock: What happens in compensated?

A
  • Mild tachycardia

* this is when we want to catch shock

76
Q

Stages of shock: Uncompensated

What happens?

A

-Pronounced tachycardia, prolonged cap. refill, BP maintained, somnolence

77
Q

Where will you prob end up with uncompensated shock?

A

ICU

78
Q

Stages of shock: Irreversible..What happens?

A

Thready pulse, BP decreases

Can cause COMA or DEATH

79
Q

Septic shock can cause SIRS (systemic inflammatory response syndrome). What happens here? (3)

A
  • Response to certain infections
  • Capillaries dilate—lets out ALBUMIN
  • 3rd spacing of fluids
80
Q

A
  • Fever
  • Tachypnea
  • Tachycardia

What are the body temp stages of shock?

A

Warm

Cool Cold

82
Q

What is the best chance of survival in shock stages: warm, cool, or cold?

A

Warm

83
Q

Will we always see all temp stages of shock?

A

NO–it progresses so quickly so we may not always see all stages

*these stages don’t necessarily have to be in a sequential order

84
Q

Shock: Ventilation is first, then treat underlying cause. How is fluid administration done?

A

Crystalloid FIRST, then colloid

85
Q

What happens with the release of histamine for anaphylaxis shock? (4)

A
  • Vasodilation
  • Increased cap. permeability
  • Fluid leak into interstitial spaces
  • Decreased venous return
86
