fluid calculation
The formula for maintenance fluids for the first 10 kg is this many mL/kg/day.
100 mL/kg/day
Mild dehydration causes urine output less than this amount per kg per hour.
2 mL/kg/h
The most common form of dehydration is this type.
isotonic dehydration
This burn affects only the epidermis.
superficial burn
This vital sign change is a hallmark of shock along with AMS and hypotension.
tachycardia
For 11–20 kg body weight, you add this many mL/kg/day.
50 mL/kg/day
Moderate dehydration often causes weight loss of this percentage.
6–9%
Hypertonic dehydration has a sodium level greater than this.
150 mEq/L
This burn type is red, painful, and may blister.
partial-thickness burn
This respiratory change is common in shock.
tachypnea
For each kg above 20 kg, you add this many mL/kg/day.
20 mL/kg/day.
Severe dehydration is defined as weight loss greater than this percentage.
10%
Seizures and neurological symptoms are seen in this dehydration type.
hypertonic dehydration
This burn type is painless and may appear red, brown, or black
full-thickness burn
This type of IV fluid is given first to manage shock.
isotonic fluid
This electrolyte concentration is used for oral rehydration solutions.
75-90 mEq Na/L
A capillary refill time of 2–4 seconds is a sign of this dehydration stage.
moderate dehydration
Hypotonic dehydration has sodium less than this value.
130 mEq/L
Burn care includes a large-bore IV, wound closure, pain management, and these topical antibiotics.
bacitracin or mupirocin
When fluids aren’t enough to manage shock, these drugs may be added.
vasopressors
In severe dehydration, this is the bolus volume of isotonic fluid given STAT.
20 mL/kg
what conditions have decreased fluid needs
Congestive heart failure
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH)
Mechanical ventilation
Postoperatively
Oliguric renal failure
Increased intracranial pressure
Shock is a common complication of this dehydration type.
hypotonic dehydration
Along with opioids and antibiotics, this beta-blocker may be used in burn management
propranolol
In addition to fluids and vasopressors, this intervention supports breathing in shock patients.
