Objectives
 To discuss:
 Maintenance
Fluids and Electrolyte Requirements

Types of Dehydration

Management of Dehydration

Electrolyte Abnormalities
Composition of Body
Compartments
 Total Body Water (TBW)= 50-75% of Total Body
Mass

TBW = Intracellular Fluid (ICF) + Extracellular Fluid (ECF)
 ICF = 2/3 of TBW
 ECF = 1/3 of TBW -- 25% of body weight

ECF = Plasma (intravascular) + Interstitial fluid

Regulation of Body Fluids and
Electrolytes
 Mechanism to Regulate ECF volume

Anti-Diuretic Hormone (ADH)
•
•

Kidney = Increase water reabsorption
ADH secretion is regulated by tonicity of body
fluids
Thirst
•
Not physiological stimulated until plasma
osmolality is >290
Regulation of Body Fluids and
Electrolytes

Aldosterone
• Released from the adrenal cortex
– Decrease circulating volume
– Stimulation by Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone axis
– Increase plasma K
• Enhanced renal reabsorption of Na in
exchange for K (>Na = expansion of ECF)

Atrial Natriuretic Factor
• Secreated by the cardiac atrium in response to
atrial dilatation (regulates blood volume)
• Inhibits Renin secretion
• Increase GFR and Na excretion
Daily Maintenance
Requirements
4cc, 2cc, 1cc rule



4 cc for the first 10 kg
2 cc for the next 10 kg
1 cc for each kg after

Example:
•
27 kg child
–
–
–
4 cc for the first 10 kg
2 cc for the next 10 kg
1 cc for each kg after
= 40cc
= 20cc
= 7 cc
67 cc/hr
Maintenance Requirements
 Maintenance Fluids: weight dependent
& age dependent:
 (NS =0.9% Saline =154 meq Na/liter)
 age
>2 -3 years: D5 0.5 NS + 20 meq
KCl/liter
 Up to age 2-3 years: D5 0.2 NS + 20 meq
KCl/liter
• D5 = 50 gm/liter = 5 g/dl
• Newborns often require D10 = 100 gm/liter = 10
gm/dl
Dehydration
 Epidemiology:

One of the most common medical problems

In the U.S. - 10% of all pediatric admissions

Worldwide, over 3 million children under 5
years die from dehydration

Dehydration
 Classification

Isotonic
•

Serum Sodium 130-150 mEq
Hypotonic
•
Serum Sodium < 130 mEq
 Hypertonic
• Serum Sodium >150 mEq
Management of Dehydration
 General Principles:

Supply Maintenance Requirements

Correct volume and electrolyte deficit

Replace ongoing abnormal losses
Management of Dehydration
 Oral Rehydration:
 Effective for mild and some moderate
dehydrations
 Child may be able to tolerate PO intake
 Small aliquots as tolerated
•
•

Mild: 50 cc/kg over 4 hours
Moderate: 100 cc/kg over 4 hours

Management of Dehydration:
IV
 Replacement of Fluid Deficit Based on %
Dehydration:
 Example: 5 kg child who is 6% dehydrated: 5 x
60cc/kg
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt x % dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt in kg (1000cc/kg) x (1/100)
estimate of dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = wt x 10 x estimate of dehydration
• fluid deficit (cc) = 5 x 10 x 6
• fluid deficit (cc) = 300 cc
Management of Dehydration:
IV
 Initial:
NS or LR 20 cc/kg Bolus in first hour
 Then Remainder of Deficit
• In previous example: total fluid deficit = 300cc
for 5 kg child who is 6% dehydrated = 60cc/kg
• Replacement:
– first hour: 20 cc/kg = 20 x 5 = 100 cc
– replace the rest: 40 cc/kg or 300 - 100 = 200 cc
– The type of fluid used and the rate of infusion
depends on the age and Na status of the patient:
» for isonatremic dehydration: correct deficits of
next 7 hours
» 200cc over 7 hours = 28 cc/hr
Hyponatremia
 Predisposing Factors







Diabetes mellitus (hyperglycemia)
Cystic fibrosis
CNS disorders ( SIADH)
Gastroenteritis

Hyponatremia
 Management




Na Deficit:
• Na Deficit = (Na Desired - Na observed) x 0.6
x body weight(kg)
Replace half in first 8 hours and the rest in the
following 16 hours
Rise in serum Na should not exceed 2 mEq/L/h to
prevent Central Pontine Myelinolysis (? Existence
in children)
In cases of severe hyponatremia (<120 mEq) with
CNS symptoms:
• 3% NaCl 3-5 ml/kg IV push for hyponatremia
induced seizures
– 6 ml/kg of NaCl will raise serum Na by 5 mEq/L
