DEFINITION -IS INTRAVENOUS FLUIDS ARE USED IN A CHILD WHO CANNOT BE
FED ENTERALLY
.
WHOMTOGIVEMAINTENANCEFLUIDS
?
-
Infants who are sick & whose oral intake is
uncertain.
-
Babies who are kept NBM for the surgery, with
respiratory distress etc.
-
neonates kept under radiant warmer.

WHYTHEINFANTS AREMORE
VULNERABLE?
*
Physiological inability to concentrate urine.
Higher metabolic rate & larger surface
area.
Can’t express thirst for more fluids.
Larger turnover.

i.
Water
ii.
Glucose
iii.
Sodium
iv.
Potassium
Advantages –
Simplicity, long shelf life, low cost,
compatibility.

So, sodium & potassium present in the
urine, stools & sweat would be the amount
to be replaced plus the sodium & potassium
required for normal metabolism of the
body.

Maintenance fluids usually contains 5%
dextrose (5 gm/100ml) providing 17 calories/
100 ml of fluid.
Which is approx.
20%
of the daily caloric
needs.
Prevents ketoneproduction.

Principal fluid used for intravascular resuscitation and
replacement of salt loss e.g diarrhoea and vomiting
Contains: Na+ 154 mmol/l, Cl

- 154 mmol/l; K+ - Absent,
But K+ is often added
IsoOsmolar compared to normal plasma
Distribution: Stays almost entirely in the Extracellular
space
Does not provide free water or calories. Restores NaCl

Lactated Ringer’’s (RL): Isotonic, 273 mOsm/L.
Contains 130 mEq/L Na+, 109 mEq/L Cl, 28 mEq/L lactate,
and 4 mEq/L K+, 3 mEq/L Ca++
Lactate is used instead of bicarb because it's more stable in
IVF during storage.
Lactate is converted readily to bicarb by the liver.
Has minimal effects on normal body fluid composition and
pH. More closely resembles the electrolyte composition of
normal blood serum.
Does not provide calories.

MONITORINGWHILEADMINISTERING
FLUIDS
*
Child should be
weighed prior
to the
commencement of therapy, and daily afterwards.
Children with ongoing dehydration/
ongoing
losses may need 6 hourly weightsto assess
hydration status
All children on IV fluids should have serum
electrolytes and glucose checked before
commencing the infusion (typically when the IV
is placed) and again within 24 hours if IV
therapy is to continue.

MONITORINGWHILEADMINISTERING
FLUIDS
*
For more unwell children, check the electrolytes
and glucose 4-6 hours after commencing, and
then according to results and the clinical
situation but at least daily.
Pay particular attention to the
serum sodium
on
measures of electrolytes. If <135mmol/L (or falling
significantly on repeat measures) If >145mmol/L
(or rising significantly on repeat measures)
Children on iv fluids should have a fluid
balance
chart
documenting input, ongoing losses and
urine output.

MAINTENANCEFLUIDS&
HYPONATREMIA*
Production of ADH leading to water retention
leading to water intoxication.
Patients producing ADH due to subtle volume
depletion can be safely treated with fluids
containing higher sodium concentration,
decrease in fluid rate or the combination of
both.
Persistent ADH production due to underlying
disease requires less than total maintenance
fluids
Individualization & careful monitoring is must.

REPLACEMENTFLUIDS
In addition to normal maintenance fluid
requirements, unwell children may need:
Fluid resuscitation for shock
Replacement of pre-existing fluid losses
Replacement of ongoing fluid losses

21
REPLACEMENTFLUIDS*
GI losses are accompanied with loss of
potassium, bicarbonate leading to
metabolic acidosis.
Impossible to predict the loses for next 24
hrs, so measure & replace excess GI losses
as they occur.
So each ml of the diarrheal stool or the
vomitusshould be replaced by the same
amount every 1 to 6 hourly.

CASE EXAMPLE
5 day old baby boy weighing 3 kg having
total billirubin18.0 is to be kept under
phototherapy.Baby having no other risk
factors & accepts DBM well.
What fluid at what rate should we
prescribe?
Yekateet 30, 2009/March
9, 2017
prepared and presented by Tamiru Abera
26
ANSWER
Rate Day 5 (150 ml/kg/day)
Weight 3 kg
So,
150 * 3 = 750 ml is the total maintainence.
For the babies under phototherapy we
should give half of the maintainence.
So 375 ml/24 hrs i.e125 ml / 8hrly
Fluid of choice is
5% dextrose + 0.45% NS
or
isoP will also be suitable.

DEFICITTHERAPY
Dehydration, most often due to gastroenteritis, is a
common problem in children.
Most cases can be managed with oral rehydration.
Even children with mild to moderate hyponatremic
or hypernatremicdehydration can be managed with
oral rehydration.

CAUSES OFDEHYDRATION
Intense

Inadequate intake of water
during hot

T
REATMENTDHN
Assess the child for signs of dehydration and give fluids
according to Treatment Plan A, B or C as appropriat e.
Principle of management….. Plan A -
Give extra fluid ………ORS(two packets at home)
-
Zink Supplementation
a
.½ tablet
for those below 6mo.
b.
1 tablet
for those above 6mo.
-
Continue feeding
Breastfeed frequently and for longer at each feed.
– If the child is exclusively breastfed, give ORS or clean water in
addition to breastmilk.
– If the child is not exclusively breastfed, give one or more of the
following: ORS solution, food-based fluids (such as soup, rice
water, and yoghurt drinks), or clean water.
-
When to return…see him/her in 2days
come back immediately if the child becomes sick(unable to
drink,sicker,fever,dysentery)

Plan B
35
TAKEHOMEMESSAGE
Fluid is like “prescription” so give it with caution.
Children are more vulnerable for rapid fluid loss.
Maintenance calculation by “4-2-1” rule or
Holliday Sega
r’s
formula.
Vigilant Monitoring of WEIGHT, URINE OUTPUT, SERUM
SODIUM CONCENTRATION while giving fluid is must.
As far as possible try to give maintenance fluid
requirement orally.
0.45% DNS + 20 mEq/l KCl is ideal fluid in most of the
children requiring maintenance therapy.
Replacement of fluids should be prompt & appropriate.
