WHY THIS BORING TOPIC q Intake of Sick Newborn – at the mercy of neonatologist. q Small amount of fluid can make a big difference. q Fluid Overload - may lead to NEC, PDA, CLD.
HOW WET ARE THE NEWBORN q TBW -0.7 L/kg in Newborn 0.6 L/kg at 1yr. Age q ECF40% - Newborn 20% - Older Children
WHO REQUIRE FLUID qInfant < 30 wks. & <1250 gm. qSick Term Newborns - Severe birth asphyxia - Apnoea - RDS - Sepsis - Seizure
HOW MUCH FLUID TO BE GIVEN <1 kg 1-1.5 kg. >1.5 kg. 1st day 100 ml/kg. 80 ml/kg. 60 ml/kg. 7th day 190/ml/kg 170 ml/kg 150 ml/kg. q increase 15 ml/kg/day upto 6th day q Add 20 ml/kg/day for Phototherapy & Warmer. qAll calculation done on birth wt. till body wt. exceeds birth wt. q Fluid if prematures nursed in Plastic heat Sheild
WHAT FLUID 1st 48 hrs. <1 kg - 5% Dextrose 1-1.5 kg. - 10% Dextrose >1.5 kg. - 10% Dextrose After that ISO – P Na+ - 20 mEq / lit K+ - 20 mEq / lit Cl - 25 mEq / lit D - 5% 25ml 25% D+ 75ml ISO – P Na+ - 22.7 mEq / lit K+ - 18 mEq / lit Cl - 22 mEq / lit D - 10%
LESS FLUID Birth asphyxia Meningitis Pneumothorax IVH PDA CLD 2/3 of Maintenance
EXTRA FLUID q NEC & other condition with loss in 3rd space • May require upto 200ml / kg – repeated 10ml / kg RL/NS bolus. q ELBW / VLBW neonates – Due to high IWL.
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER IN FLUID THERAPY Term – 1% Per day qAllow a wt. Loss Preterm – 2% Per day q 1st 48 hrs – no electrolyte required q Replace Gastric fluid loss ½ NS + KCL Other body fluids NS + KCL q Give fluid direction 8-12 hrly in sick neonates
Premature 1.25 kg. day 1 give fluid direction q 10% Dextrose q 80 ml / day q 20 ml 6 hourly q 10% Dextrose 3.5ml / hr = 3 drops / min
A 3 kgs., term sick newborn on 4th day under radiant warmer & phototherapy, calculate fluid requirement q ISO – P q 315 ml + 60 ml + 60 ml = 435 ml q 108 ml / 6 hrs. q 18 ml / hr. = 18 drops / min.
ELECTROLYTE REQUIREMENT • SODIUM : • Add - from day 2 - 3 • In VLBW add when lost 6% wt. • Require - Term & LBW 2 - 3 mEq / kg / day • ELBW 3 - 5 mEq / kg / day
ELECTROLYTE REQUIREMENT…. • POTASIUM : • Add - from day 3 • can wait till serum K+ < 4 in small • prematures • Require - 2 - 3 mEq / kg / day
ELECTROLYTE REQUIREMENT.... C.CALCIUM :q Give to IDM Preterm Birth asphyxia <1500 gm. q Add from day 1. q 36-72 mEq / kg / day or 4- 8 ml / kg / day of 10% Cal. gluconate
GLUCOSE REQUIREMENT qOptimum requirement 4-6 mg / kg / min q Conc. Used - 5%, 10%, 12.5% (max) q Glucose infuse – (mg / kg / min) = % Gx rate (ml / hr.) x 0.167 x wt. q Thumb rule – 3 ml / kg / hr of 10% D = 5mg / kg / min q Remain careful about glucose in – LBW IDM IUGR
GOALS OF FLUID ELECTROLYTE THERAPY q Urine output 1 – 3 ml/kg/hr. q Allow a weight loss 1 – 2% / day in 1st wk. (weigh the splint before putting i/v line) q Absence of Edema / Dehydration / Hepatomegaly q Urine Sp. gravity 1005 - 1015 q Euglycaemia - 75 – 100 mg / dl q Normonatremia - 135 - 145 mEq / lit q Normokalemia - 4 – 5 mEq / lit
MONITORING FLUID ELECTROLYTE THERAPY Check Daily - Definitely q Wt. - loss > 3% - dehydration <1% over dehydration q Urine output <1 ml / kg / hr – dehydration or SIADH (Hourly) >4 ml / kg / hr. – overhydration / dieresis Napkin weight technique Collect in syringe from cotton q Urine specific gravity >1015 fluid deficit (each sample if possible) <1005 fluid overload q Blood Glucose q Clinical Signs
MONITORING FLUID ELECTROLYTE THERAPY …... Check Daily --- if possible q Serum Na+ q Serum K+ q Blood Urea q Serum Creatinine
Peripheral lines: Indications & Purpose • Maintain fluid, electrolyte & acid-base balance in neonate • Provide IV medications. • Provide blood or blood components. • Provide peripheral parenteral nutrition. • N B: do not try > 2consecutive times by the same person !
Monitoring & Discontinuation • Observe rate, patency ,air within the line. • Observe for local warmth, pain,leak redeness ,edema, blanching. • Flush with 2 ml N.Saline (with asepsis) if needed to check the line. • Indication : on order / leak / phlebitis / thrombosis / blanching (except with ionotrope infusion). • Stop fluid / asepsis / remove dressings / remove cannula / press until bleeding stops / dress with iodine. • Send cannula tip for culture if phlebitis.
Umbilical venous line • Purpose : Central line for medication, exchange transfusion, pressure monitoring and fluid (rarely) • Policy : Should be done by a doctor only. • Emphasis : Tip in ductus/IVC, do not advance once secured, do not keep open, very careful about sepsis. • Equipment : 5Fr for < 3.5 kg; 8Fr for > 3.5kg.( It should have side holes at tip ), forceps, scalpel,probe, suture, drapes, asepsis utensils, tapes, ties etc. )
UVC Procedure • Estimate length of the catheter(graph), assemble equipments • Universal asepsis. • Identify UV( patulous, single, bleeding, at 12 o’clock) / grasp cord with toothed forceps / remove clots from vein by iris forcep • Introduce fluid filled catheter with stop cock 2-3 cm inside vein / suck for blood / remove clot if no free flow of blood /remove, rotate & reinsert until free flow comes / advance to desired length • Fix UVC once free flow established with tapes. Radiology confirmation (D9-D10 or just above right diaphragm).
Capillary Blood Sampling • Purpose : heel prick blood sampling • Emphasis : safe and effective / maxm. 2 pricks per heel (except sick newborn). • Policy : preferably doctors/ only trained nurse. • Indications : sugar / blood gas / Hct / sepsis screen / bilirubin / biochemistry. • Equipment: asepsis utensils, lancet, capillary tubes, gauze.
Procedure of CBS • Ask sister to bundle the neonate. Chose the site (picture). Warm the area with dry warm cloth. • Universal asepsis. Perform lancet puncture in most medial or lateral aspect of plantar surface (avoid puncture on previous or previous weight bearing sites of the neonates). • Discard first drop of blood / hold the site downward / keep gentle continuous pressure /avoid ‘milking’ / Collect in capillary tube / • Stop bleeding by pressure / apply Iodine / label each tube / send with details quickly / document all details.
