MONITORING FLUID BALANCE

•  I/O  monitoring  o1en  rou6ne  (pa6ent  must  be  catheterized)  –  Input:  PO  intake,  IV  fluids  –  Output:  Urine  output,  vomit,  diarrhoea,  drains  

•  Allow  500-­‐1000ml  /24h  insensible  losses  (e.g.  swea6ng,  breathing);  more  in  burns  pa6ents  

•  When  fluid  enters  the  ‘third  space’  (i.e.  edema),  pa6ent  may  have  normal  fluid  balance  but  is  hypovolemic  –  Beware!  

•  Hypovolumic  pa6ents  do  not  always  have  tachycardia  –  especially  if  given  beta-­‐blockers  etc.

FLUID OVERLOAD: CAUSES

Normally  NOT  a  cause  •  ↑  salt  intake:  homeostasis  ↑  excre6on  •  Hyperaldosteronism  (Conn’s  syndrome):  due  to  phenomenon  of

HYPOVOLEMIA: CAUSES

•  Dehydra6on  •  Haemorrhage    :  open,  concealed,  intra-­‐op  losses  •  Burns  •  GIT  losses      :  diarrhoea,  vomi6ng,  etc  •  Renal  loss      :  Renal  disease  e.g.  nephro6c,  DM  •  Iatrogenic      :  Excessive  diure6cs    Also  consider  cardiogenic  shock,  anaphyla6c  shock  etc  as  the  presenta6on  is  very  similar  to  hypovolemia

HYPOVOLEMIA: MANAGEMENT

•  Treat  the  cause  •  Fluid  challenge:  

–  500ml  (250ml  if  frail  /  CVS  dx)  0.9%  saline  /  30  min  –  If  urine  output  ↑,  implies  hypovolemia  was  the  cause  of  low  urine  output

PRESCRIBING FLUIDS: INDICATIONS

•  Hypovolemia,  dehydra6on  •  ↑  loss:  fluid  losses,  third  space  losses  

–  E.g.  Pre-­‐op  hydra6on  •  ↓  intake:  NBM,  ↓  consciousness  

–  Adults  require  2-­‐2.5L/day  to  cover  urine  output  &  losses

•  However  1L  0.9%  saline  exceeds  daily  Na  requirements,  large  volumes  can  cause  hypernatremia

HYPONATREMIA: FEATURES

Consequences  of  hyponatremia  with  hypo  or  hyper  volemia  is  usually  similar  to  that  of  the  underlying  cause  

Euvolumic  (diluBonal)  hyponatremia  •  Principally  neurological  symptoms  due  to  osmo6c  shi1s,  

cerebral  edema    •  Headache,  confusion,  restlessness  •  Drowsiness,  myoclonic  jerks,  coma

HYPONATREMIA: WORKUP

•  Exclude  pseudohyponatremia:  blood  collec6on  from  arm  with  IV  fluids,  lipaemic  sample,  hyperglycemia  

•  Determine  if  pt  is  symptoma6c  •  Determine  acute  vs  chronic  hyponatremia  *  •  Determine  ECF  volume  status  •  Check  meds  •  Ix:  U/E/Cr,  glucose,  osmolarity,  urine  osmolarity,  urine

HYPONATREMIA: MANAGEMENT

Chronic  hyponatremia  cannot  be  rapidly  corrected  due  to      OsmoBc  DemyelinaBon  Syndrome  •  Brain  loses  osmolytes  quickly  to  adapt  to  hyponatremia  •  However  with  rapid  replacement  of  sodium,  brain  gains  

osmolytes  slowly  •  Hypoosmolar  intracellular  compartment  shrinks  BBB  

endothelium,  allowing  immune  cells  to  enter  and  cause  demyelina6on  

Maximum  correc6on  rate:  8  mmol/day
