Intravenous Fluid Therapy Part one Prepared by : Dr. Ahmed Kholeif General Practitioner Date : 12th January,2013 2. Introduction Can You Imagine life without water? Of course not, because water is essential to sustain life. Likewise, body fluids are vital to maintain normal body functioning Total body fluid (TBW), accounts for approximately 60% of total body weight (this can be 70% or higher in a new born down to 50–55% in a mature woman). Total Body Fluid can be divided into Intra cellular and Extra cellular 3. Intra cellular Fluid 2/3 of the total body water . Found inside the plasma membrane of the bodys cells. In humans (average 70 KG), the intra cellular compartment contains on average about 28 liters of fluid . 4. Extracellular Fluid Accounts for 1/3 of the TBW, either:Interstitial, Intravascular and 3rd space1- Interstitial compartment•It the small, narrow spaces between tissues or parts of an organ. It is filled with what is called interstitial fluid•When excessive fluid accumulates in the interstitial space, edema develops. In the average male (70 kg) human body, the interstitial space has approximately 10.5 liters of fluid ( 15% of the TBW)Importance:It acts as the micro environment that allows movement of ions, protein sand nutrients across the cell barrier . 5. Extracellular Fluid2 -Intravascular compartment•The main intravascular fluid in humans is blood; the average volume of blood in humans is approximately 70-75 ml/kg 6. Extracellular Fluid3 - Third space•The third space is space in the body where fluid does not normally collect in larger amounts.•For examples the peritoneal cavity and pleural cavity are major examples of the third space.•Small amount of fluid does exist normally in such spaces, and function for example as lubricant in the case of pleural fluid . 7. WATER • Water is the bodys primary fluid and is essential for proper organ system functioning and survival.• People can live several days or even weeks without food, but they cannot survive only a few days without water . 8. WATER Water has many functions in the body !Essential for Cell life .Interfere in the Chemical and metabolic reactions .Nutrients absorption and transport .Regulate the Body temperature .Elimination of waste products through urine . 9. How much of you is water? • Body muscle mass is rich in water, while Adipose Tissue has a lower percentage of water content. That’s why:• Overweight or obese people have a lower percentage of water compared to someone whos lean and muscular.• Women typically have a lower percentage of total body water than men due to a higher percentage of body fat.• Older adults tend to have a lower concentration of water overall, due to an age-related decrease in muscle mass.• Children tend to have a higher percentage of water weight-as much as 70-80% in a full-term neonate. 10. How much of you is water? Input and Output of the “Normal” Adult Minimal Obligatory Daily input:500mL: Ingested water:800mL: Water content in food300mL : Water from oxidation :TOTAL: 1600mL 11. Minimal Obligatory Daily water output: • 500mL : Urine • 500mL: Skin • 400mL: Respiratory tract • 200mL: Stool • TOTAL : 1600mL • On average, an adult input and output is 30-35mL/kg/day (about 2.4L/day) 12. Water requirements increase with:• Fever Sweating • Burns Tachypnea •Surgical drains Polyuria• Gastrointestinal losses through Vomiting or diarrhea Water requirements increase by 100 to 150 mL/day for each C degree of body temperature elevation. 13. What are Solutes? A substance dissolved in another substance •There are many SOLUTES, for example: Plasma proteins (eg. albumin, globulins, fibrinogen)Ions (sodium chloride, magnesium, calcium,bicarbonates)Food molecules (eg. glucose, amino-acids), wasteproducts as urea 14. What’s Osmolality?Term refers to the solute concentration in the body fluid by weight. The number of milliosmols (mOsm) in a kilogram (kg)of solution.In humans normally the osmolality in plasma is about 275-295 mOsm/Kg 15. FLUIDTHERPY Importance !•Can be life-saving in certain conditions •Loss of body water, whether acute or chronic, can cause arrange of problems from mild headache to convulsions, coma,and in some cases, death.•Though fluid therapy can be a lifesaver, its never always safe, and can be very harmful. 16. Types of Fluid The fluids used in clinical practice are usefully classified into colloids, crystalloids and blood products1.Colloid Solutions that contain large molecules that don't pass the cell membranes. When infused, they remain in the intravascular compartment and expand the intravascular volume and they draw fluid from extravascular spaces via their higher on cotic pressure 17. Types of Fluid2.Crystalloid Solutions that contain small molecules that flow easily across the cell membranes, allowing for transfer from the bloodstream into the cells and body tissues.This will increase fluid volume in both the interstitial and intravascular spaces (Extracellular)It is subdivided into: * Isotonic * Hypotonic * Hypertonic 18. Isotonic Fluids When to consider a solution isotonic? When the concentration of the particles (solutes) is similar to that of plasma, So it doesn't move into cells and remains within the extracellular compartment thus increasing intravascular volume. 19. Isotonic Fluids Types of isotonic solutions include:0.9% sodium chloride (0.9% NaCl)lactated Ringers solution 5% dextrose in water (D5W)Ringers solution 20. Isotonic FluidsA- 0.9% sodium chloride (Normal Saline) Solutions Na+ K+ Ca2+ Mg2+ Cl- HCO3- Dextrose mOsm/L 0.9% NaCl 154 154 308Simply salt water that contains only water, sodium (154 mEq/L),and chloride (154 mEq/L).Its called "normal saline solution" because the percentage of sodium chloride in the solution is similar to the concentration of sodium and chloride in the intravascular space. 21. A- 0.9% sodium chloride (Normal Saline)When to be given?1- to treat low extracellular fluid, as in fluid volume deficit from- Hemorrhage - Severe vomiting or diarrhea - Heavy drainage fromGI suction, fistulas, or wounds2- Shock3- Mild hyponatremia4- Metabolic acidosis (such as diabetic ketoacidosis)5- It’s the fluid of choice for resuscitation efforts.6- its the only fluid used with administration of blood products. 22. B- Ringers lactate or Hartmann solution + + 2+ 2+ - - Solutions Na K Ca Mg Cl HCO3 Dextrose mOsm/L Lactated 130 4 3 109 28 273 Ringer’so is the most physiologically adaptable fluid because it select rolyte content is most closely related to the composition of the bodys blood serum and plasma.o Another choice for first-line fluid resuscitation for certain patients, such as those with burn injuries. 23. A- 0.9% sodium chloride (Normal Saline)TAKE CARE:Because 0.9% sodium chloride replace sextracellular fluid, it should be used cautiouslyin certain patients (those with cardiac or renaldisease) for fear of fluid volume overload. 24. B- Ringers lactate or Hartmann solution When to be used?To replace GI tract fluid losses ( Diarrhea or vomiting )Fistula drainage Fluid losses due to burns and trauma Patients experiencing acute blood loss or hypovolemia due to third-space fluid shifts. 25. B- Ringers lactate or Hartmann solution Notice. Both 0.9% sodium chloride and LR may be used in many clinical situations, but patients requiring electrolyte replacement (such as surgical or burn patients) will benefit more from an infusion of LR.- LR is metabolized in the liver, which converts the lactate to bicarbonate. LRis often administered to patients who have metabolic acidosis not patients with lactic acidosis- Don't give LR to patients with liver disease as they cant metabolize lactate- used cautiously in patients with sever renal impairment because it contains some potassium- LR shouldn't be given to a patient whose pH is greater than 7.5 26. C -Ringers solutionLike LR, contains sodium, potassium, calcium, andchloride in similar. But it doesnt contain lactate.Ringers solution is used in a similar fashion as LR, but doesn't have the contraindications related to lactate. 27. D- Dextrose 5% + + 2+ 2+ - - Solutions Na K Ca Mg Cl HCO3 Dextrose mOsm/L D5W 50gm/l 278It is considered an isotonic solution, but when the dextrose is metabolized, the solution actually becomes hypotonic and causes fluid to shift into cells. 28. D- Dextrose 5% How does it work?•D5W provides free water that pass through membrane pores to both intracellular and extracellular spaces. Its smaller size allows the molecules to pass more freely between compartments, thus expanding both compartments simultaneously•It provides 170 calories per liter, but it doesn't replace electrolytes.•The supplied calories doesn't provide enough nutrition for prolonged use. But still can be added to provide some calories while the patient isNPO. 29. D- Dextrose 5%Take Care !- D5W is not good for patients with renal failure or cardiac problems since it could cause fluid overload.- patients at risk for intracranial pressure should not receive D5W since it could increase cerebral edema- D5W shouldn't be used in isolation to treat fluid volume deficit because it dilutes plasma electrolyte concentrations- Never mix dextrose with blood as it causes blood to hemolyze.- Not used for resuscitation, because the solution wont remain in the intravascular space.- Not used in the early postoperative period, because the bodys reaction to the surgical stress may cause an increase in antidiuretic hormone secretion 30.

Precautions in usage of Isotonic solutions• Be aware that patients being treated for hypovolemia can quickly develop hypervolemia (fluid volume overload) following rapid or over infusion of isotonic fluids.• Document baseline vital signs, edema status, lung sounds, and heart sounds before beginning the infusion, and continue monitoring during and after the infusion. 32. Precautions in usage of Isotonic solutions• Frequently assess the patients response to I.V. therapy, monitoring for signs and symptoms of hypervolemia such as: hypertension / bounding pulse / pulmonary crackles / peripheral edema / dyspnea/ shortness of breath / jugular venous distention (JVD)• Monitor intake and output• Elevate the head of bed at 35 to 45 degrees, unless contraindicated .• If edema is present, elevate the patients legs. 33. • monitor for signs and symptoms of continued hypovolemia, including: urine output of less than 0.5 mL/kg /hour / poor skin turgor tachycardia weak, thready pulse hypotension• Educate patients and their families about signs and symptoms of volume overload and dehydration• instruct patients to notify if they have trouble breathing or notice any swelling.• Instruct patients and families to keep the head of the bed elevated (unless contraindicated). 34. Thank you for your attention 35. Intravenous Fluid Therapy Part Two Prepared by : Dr. Ahmed Kholeif General Practitioner Date : 14th January,2013 36. B- HYPOTONIC FLUIDS • Compared with intracellular fluid (as well as compared with isotonic solutions), hypotonic solutions have a lower concentration of solutes (electrolytes). And osmolality less than 250 mOsm/L .• Hypotonic crystalloid solutions lowers the serum osmolality within the vascular space, causing fluid to shift from the intravascular space to both the intracellular and interstitial spaces.• These solutions will hydrate cells, although their use may deplete fluid within the circulatory system. 37. TYPES OF HYPOTONIC FLUIDS • 0.45% sodium chloride (0.45% NaCl), 0.33% sodium chloride, 0.2% sodium chloride, and 2.5% dextrose in water• Hypotonic fluids are used to treat patients with conditions causing intracellular dehydration, when fluid needs to be shifted into the cell , such as:1. Hypernatremia2. Diabetic ketoacidosis3. Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state. 38. HYPOTONIC FLUIDSPrecautions with hypotonic solutions Never give hypotonic solutions to patients who areat risk for increased ICP because it may exacerbatecerebral edema Dont use hypotonic solutions in patients with liver disease, trauma, or burns due to the potential for depletion of intravascular fluid volume 39. HYPOTONIC FLUIDSPrecautions with hypotonic solutions The decrease in vascular bed volume can worsen existing hypovolemia and hypotension and cause cardiovascular collapse Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of fluid volume deficit In older adult patients, confusion may be an indicator of a fluid volume deficit. Instruct patients to inform you if they feel dizzy or just "dont feel right." 40. C- HYPERTONIC SOLUTIONS • What is hypertonic solutions?• Solution that have a higher tonicity or solute concentration. Hypertonic fluids have an osmolarity of 375 mOsm/L or higher• The osmotic pressure gradient draws water out of the intracellular space, increasing extracellular fluid volume, so they are used as volume expanders. 41. HYPERTONIC SOLUTIONS Some examples and Indications: 1- 3% sodium chloride (3% NaCl):• May be prescribed for patients in critical situations of severe hyponatremia.• Patients with cerebral edema may benefit from an infusion of hypertonic sodium chloride2- 5% Dextrose with normal saline (D5NS): whichreplaces sodium, chloride and some calories 42. HYPERTONIC SOLUTIONS Precautions with hypertonic fluids: Hypertonic sodium chloride solutions should be administered only in high acuity areas with constant nursing surveillance for potential complications .Maintain vigilance when administering hypertonic saline solutionsbecause of their potential for causing intravascular fluid volume overload and pulmonary edema.shouldnt be given for an indefinite period of time.Prescriptions for their use should state the specific hypertonic fluid to be infused, the total volume to be infused and infusion rate, or the length of time to continue the infusion .It is better to store hypertonic sodium chloride solutions apart fromregular floor stock I.V. fluids . 43. Colloid solutions How does it work? • It expand the intravascular volume by drawing fluid from the interstitial spaces into the intravascular compartment through their higher oncotic pressure.• the same effect as hypertonic crystalloids solutions but it requires administration of less total volume and have a longerduration of action because the molecules remain within the intravascular space longer.• Its effect can last for several days if capillary wall linings are intact and working properly. 44. Colloid solutions Examples: 1- 5% albumin (Human albumin solution)- The most commonly utilized colloid solutions.- It contains plasma protein fractions obtained from human plasma and works to rapidly expand the plasma volume used for:•volume expansion•moderate protein replacement•achievement of hemodynamic stability in shock states.- considered a blood transfusion product and requires all the same nursing precautions used when administering other blood products.-It can be expensive and its availability is limited to the supply of human donors 45. Colloid solutions Albumin Contraindications: a) Severe anemia b) Heart failurec ) Known sensitivity to albumind ) Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors ( ACEI)should be withheld for at least 24 hours before administering albumin because of the risk of atypical reactions, such as flushing and hypotension 46. What to do if you suspect transfusion reaction • Sings of transfusion reaction may include: fever, flank pain, vital sign changes, nausea, headache, urticaria, dyspnea, and broncho spasm.• If you suspect a transfusion reaction, take these immediate actions:1. Stop the transfusion.2. Keep the I.V. line open with normal saline solution.3. Notify the physician and blood bank.4. Intervene for signs and symptoms as appropriate.5. Monitor the patients vital signs. 47. Colloid solutions 2- Hydroxyethalstarcheso Another form of hypertonic synthetic colloids used for volume expansion Contain sodium and chloride and used for hemo dynamic volume replacement following major surgery and to treat major burn so Less expensive than albumin and their effects can last 24 to36 hours 48. Colloid solutions Precautions when using Colloid solutions: 1)The patient is at risk for developing fluid volume overload2) As for blood products, use an 18-gauge or larger needle to infuse colloids.3)Monitor the patient for signs and symptoms of hypervolemia, including:• Increased BP•Dyspnea or crackles in the lungs•edema. 49. Colloid solutions Precautions when using Colloid solutions: 4) Closely monitor intake and output.5) Colloid solutions can interfere with platelet function and increase bleeding times, so monitor the patients coagulation indexes.6) Elevate the head of bed unless contraindicated.7) Anaphy lactoid reactions are a rare but potentially lethal adverse reaction to colloids. Take a careful allergy history from patients receiving colloids (or any other drug or fluid), asking specifically if they've ever had a reaction to an I.V. infusion 50. Components of fluid therapy 1. Maintenance therapy: replaces normal ongoing losses2. Fluid Resuscitation: corrects any existing water and electrolyte deficits. 51. Components of fluid therapy A. Maintenance therapy Maintenance therapy is usually undertaken when the individual is not expected to eat or drink normally for a longer time (eg, peri operatively or patient on a ventilator) 52. Maintenance therapy How to calculate maintenance fluid flow rates?The most commonly used formula is (4/2/1) rule a.k.a ( Weight+40),which is used for both adults and pediatrics.4/2/1 rule•4 ml/kg/hr for first 10 kg (=40ml/hr)•then 2 ml/kg/hr for next 10 kg (=20ml/hr)•then 1 ml/kg/hr for any kgs over that This always gives 60ml/hr for first 20 kg then you add 1 ml/kg/hr for each kg over 20 kg So: Weight in kg + 40 = Maintenance IV rate/hour For any person weighing more than 20kg 53. Fluid Resuscitation B) Fluid Resuscitation :Correction of existing abnormalities in volume status or serumelectrolytes (as in hypovolemic shock)What is the Parameters used to assess volume deficit?1- Blood pressure2- Urine output3- Jugular venous pressure4- Urine sodium concentration 54. Fluid Resuscitation How to know that the patient has Hypovolemic Shock?The patient has the following sings and symptoms:1- Anxiety or agitation 2- Cool, Pale skin3- Confusion 4- Decreased or no urine output5- Rapid breathing 6- Disturbed consciousness7- Low blood pressure 8- Low body temperature9- Rapid pulse, often weak and thready 55. Fluid Resuscitation Rate of Repletion of Fluid deficit:1- Severe volume depletion or hypovolemic shock: Rapid infusion of 1-2L of isotonic saline (0.9% NS) as rapidly as possible to restore tissue perfusion2- Mild to moderate hypovolemia:Choose a rate that is 50-100mL/h greater than estimated fluid losses. calculating fluid loss as follows:Urine output= 50ml/hIn sensible losses = 30ml/h Additional loss such as Vomiting or Diarrhea or high fever (additional 100-150 ml/day for each degree of temp >37 C) 56. FLUID OVERLOAD (HYPERVOLEMIA) It is excessive accumulation of fluid in the body,due to:1- Excessive parenteral infusion2- Deficiencies in cardiovascular or renal fluidvolume regulation 57. FLUID OVERLOAD (HYPERVOLEMIA) Signs and Symptoms They are not always typical but most commonly are:1- Edema (swelling) - particularly feet, and ankles2- Difficulty breathing while lying down3- Crackles on auscultation4- High blood pressure5- Irritated cough6- Jugular vein distension7- Shortness of breath (dyspnea)8- Strong, rapid pulse 58. FLUID OVERLOAD (HYPERVOLEMIA) Management of Hypervolemia1- Prevention is the best way2- Sodium restriction3- Fluid restriction4- Diuretics5- Dialysis 59. IV Modes of administration Peripheral IV line placed into a peripheral vein PICC : Central line that is placed via the peripheral vasculature. Its tip terminates in the superior vena cava Peripheral mid line catheters: Shorter version of the PICC, Its tip terminates in the axilla Hickman lines: Skin tunneled cuffed central catheters 60. How to calculate IV flow rates ! Intravenous fluid must be given at a specific rate, neither too fast nor too slow. The specific rate may be measured as ml/hour, L/hour or drops/min. To control or adjust the flow rate only drops per minute are used. 61. How to calculate IV flow rates ! What is a drop factor?Drop factor is the number of drops in one milliliter used in IV fluid administration (also called drip factor). A number of different drop factors are available but the Commonest are:1- 10 drops/ml (blood set)2- 15 drops / ml (regular set)3- 60 drops / ml (microdrop, burette) 62. How to calculate IV flow rates ? The formula for working out flow rates is: volume (ml) X drop factor (gtts / ml) = gtts / min --------------------------------------------- (flow rate) time (min)Example:1500 ml IV Saline is ordered over 12 hours. Using a drop factor of 15 drops /ml, how many drops per minute need to be delivered? 1500 (ml) X 15 (drop / ml) --------------------------------------------------- = 31 drop/ minute 12 x 60 (gives us total minutes) 63. How to calculate drug dosage? Common Conversions:1 Liter = 1000 Milliliters1 Gram = 1000 Milligrams1 Milligram = 1000 Micrograms1 Kilogram = 2.2 pounds Remember! Before doing the calculation,convert units of measurement to one system. 64. How to calculate drug dosage? Example:The ordered dose is Ceftriaxone 750 mg IV. the container contain 1g in a 10 ml vial.How to calculate?You should convert first g to mg , then :(D) 750 mg X (V) 10 ml = 7.5 ml(H) 1000 mg 65. How to calculate drug dosage? D x V = Amount to Give HD = dose ordered or desired doseH = dose on container label or dose on handV = form and amount in which drug comes(tablet, capsule, liquid) 66. IV lines common Problems A. Infiltrationwhen the catheter unintentionally enters the tissue surrounding the blood vessel and the IV fluid go into the tissues.B. PhlebitisInflammation of a blood vesselC. HypothermiaWhen large amounts of cold fluids are infused rapidly D. Local infection (Abscess)A microscopic organism may use the tiny hole in the skin created by the IV catheter to find its way into the body, and cause an infection 67. Remember ! I. Treat IV fluids as “prescription” like any other medication II. Determine if patient needs maintenance or resuscitation III. Choose fluid type based on co-existing electrolyte disturbances IV. Don’t forget about additional IV medications patient is receivingV. Choose rate of fluid administration based on weight and minimal daily requirements VI. Avoid fluids in patients with ECF volume excessVII. Always reassess whether the patient continues to require IV fluid 68. Last Slide It’s Over THANK YOU ! |
