Several factors specific to the neonate’s physiology contribute to physiologic hyperbilirubinemia. Name one.
Increased production: Fetal erythrocytes have a higher rate of turnover; per kilogram, newborn infants produce twice the daily adult amount of bilirubin.
Decreased clearance: Newborns have relatively low UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity (increases until approximately 14 weeks). They also have slow intestinal motility in the first few days as feeding becomes established, and this increases small amounts of bilirubin reuptake by the enterohepatic circulation.

Calculate the ongoing fluids rate for a DKA patient who is 15kg and has a 10% fluid deficit, who you will plan to fluid resuscitate over 36hours and who received a 10ml/kg NS bolus in the ER?
Will need to replenish 1500ml in addition to maintenance fluids
1500ml- (10ml/kg x 15kg) = 1350ml
1350ml/36hours = 37.5ml/hr
maintenance using the 4:2:1 rule:
(4ml/hr x10kg) + (2ml/hr x5kg) = 50ml/hr
50ml/hr + 37.5ml/hr = 87.5ml/hr
What is the formula to calculate a patient's QTC?
