Maintenance Fluids

Описание к видео Maintenance Fluids

A straightforward question in the oral/written boards - calculate the maintenance fluids, please don't confuse it for resuscitative fluids,.

The formula is
For first 10 kgs = weight (kg) x 100 mL/kg/day
For 10-20 kg = 1000 mL + [weight (kg) x 50 ml/kg/day]

and then for anything above 20 kg = 1500 mL + [weight (kg) x 20 ml/kg/day]

If they are not in renal failure or have Chronic kidney disease; don't forget to have the K in the fluids.
