Fluid
is the largest part in body. The total amount of body fluid volume and solute, as well as concentration are relatively constant during steady-state condition. Disturbances of composition and volume of body fluid is one of the most common clinical problems and important. Large disturbances of fluid and electrolyte balance may quickly lead to changes in cardiovascular function, neurological, and neuromuscular

ECF,
including plasma & interstitial fluid, contain sodium & chloride ions in large amount, bicarbonate ions are also in large enough quantities, but only a few ions of potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphate, and organic acids. ICF only contains a few amount of sodium and chloride ions and almost no calcium ion. In fact, this fluid contains a large amount of potassium ions, phosphate, and proteins.

Osmosis
is the net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane as a result of difference in non diffusible solute concentration between the two side. Osmotic pressure is the pressure that must be applied to the side with more solute to prevent a net movement of water across the membrane to dilute the solute. Osmotic pressure is generally dependent only on the number of nondiffusible solute particles.
The
osmolarity of the solution is equal to the number of osmoles per liter of solution. The osmolality equals the the number of osmoles per kilogram of solvent. Tonicity refers to the effect a solution has on cell voluume. An isotonic solution has no effect on cell volume, whereas hypotonic and hypertonic solution increase and decrease cell volume respectively.

VOLUME CHANGE - volume depletion - volume overload CONSENTRATION CHANGE - Hyperosmolality & hypernatremia - Hypoosmolarlty & hyponatremia - Pottasium disturbance - Calcium disturbance - Phosphor disturbance - Magnesium disturbance
2.
The condition that is caused by depletion of extracellular fluid. The most common cause of volume depletion is diarrhea or vomiting. The other causes include trauma, infection, inflamation, bleeding, burns, etc. Volume depletion is devided into 3 types based on the blood sodium level: - Isonatremic (normal blood sodium levels) - Hyponatremic (abnormally low blood sodium levels) - Hypernatremic (abnormally high blood sodium levels)
Volume
overload is the condition that can be caused by iatrogenic or secondary of renal insuffiency, sirosis or congestive heart failure. Edema is the indication of volume overload in tissues. Classification of edema : Intracelullar Edema & Extracelullar Edema
1.
Sodium Disturbance
Hyperosmolality & Hypernatremia Hypernatremia is nearly always the result of either a loss of water in excess of sodium or retention of large quantities of sodium Clinical Manifestation: restless, lethargy, and hyperreflexia can progresss to seizures, coma, and ultimately death. Treatment of hypernatremia is aimed at restoring plasma osmolality to normal as well as correcting the underlying problem.
Water deficit should generally be corrected over 48 h with hypotonic solution such as D5W. Hypernatremic patients with decreased total body sodium should be given isotonic fluids to restore plasma volume. Hypernatremic patients with increased total body sodium should be treated with loop diuretic along with intravenous D5W.
Hyponatremia invariably reflects water retention from either an absolute increase in TBW or loss of sodium in excess of water. Clinical Manifestation : anorexia, nausea, weakness. Progressive cerebral edema, however result in lethargy, confusion, seizures, coma and finally death. Treatment of hyponatremia:
Na+ Deficit = TBW x (desired Na [Na+] present [Na+])
Very rapid correction of hyponatremia has been associated with demyelinating lesion in pons. The correction rate : :0,5 meq/L/horless (mild symptom); 1 meq/L/h or less (moderate symptom); and 1,5 meq/L/h or less (severe symptom).
2. Potassium Disturbance
Hyperkalemia Hyperkalemia exsists when plasma [K] exceeds 5,5 meq/L Hypercalemia can result from (1) an intercompartmental shift of potassium ions (2) decreased urinary excretion of potassium or rarely (3) an increased potassium intake. Clincal manifestation involves CNS (paraesthesia, skeletal weakness) and cardiovascular system (dysrhytmia, ECG changes).
Treatment
of hyperkalemia: Treatment is directed at reversing cardiac manifestation, anda skeletal muscle weakness and restoring of plasma K to normal calcium 95-10 ml of 10% calcium gluconate or 3-5 ml of 10% calcium chloride) partially antagonizes the cardiac effects of hyperkalemia and is useful in patients with marked hyperkalemia.
Hypokalemia
Is defined as plasma [K+] less than 3,5 mEq/l. Hypokalemia can occur as result of (1) intercompartmental shift of K+ (2) increased potassium loss or (3) an inadequate potassium intake. Clinical Manifestation : abnormality of ECG, sketetal muscle weakness, muscle cramping, tetany, and rarely rhabdomyolisis. Treatment of hypokalemia: - oral replacement with potassium chloride solution is generally safest (60-80 mEq/d). - intravenous replacement of potassium chloride should usually reserved for patient with or risk for serious cardiac manifestation or muscle weakness
Fluid management is aimed to replacement of water and electrolyte depletion, shock therapy, and solves another abnormalities that occur because of therapy. Intravenous fluid management, consists of: - Crystalloid Fluid - Colloid Fluid - Combination both of them
This fluid has composition that is similar to ECF. Crystalloid solutions are aqueous solutions of low molecular-weight ion (salts) with or without glucose.. Half time of crystalloid solution in intravascular is about 20-30 minutes. Crystalloid should be considered as resuscitation fluid in patients with hemorrhagic and septic shock, in burn patients, in patients with head injury to maintain cerebral perfusion pressure, and in patients undergoing plasmapharesis and hepatic resection.
If
3-4 l of crystalloid has given, and hemodynamic responses inadequate, colloid may be added. Solution are chosen according to the type of fluid loss being replaced. For loses primarily involving water hypotonic solution maintenance type solution If loses involve both water and electrolyte isotonic solution replacement type solution.
The
most commonly used fluid is lactated Ringers solution. When NS is given in large volume, can produces a dilutional hyperchloremic acidosis because of its high sodium and chloride (154 mEq/l). NS is the preferred solution for hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis and for diluting PRC prior to transfusion. D5W is used for replacement of pure water deficits and as a maintenance fluid for patients on sodium restriction. Hypertonic 3% saline is employed in therapy of severe symptomatic hyponatremia.
Colloid
is called as plasma replacement fluid or usually called plasma substitute or plasma expander The osmotic activity of high molecular weight substances in colloid tends to maintain these solution intravascularly. Most colloid solutions have intravascular halflives between 3-6 h.
Generally
include: 1.Fluid resusitation in patients with severe intravascular fluid deficit (eg. Hemorrhagic shock) prior to the arrival of blood transfusion. 2.Fluid resusitation in the presence of severe hypoalbuminemia or condition associated with large protein losses such as burns.
Perioperative fluid therapy includes replacement of preexisting fluid deficits of normal losses (maintenance requirements), and surgical wound losses including blood loss.
Normal
Maintenance Requirements
in the absence of oral intake, fluid & electrolyte deficits can rapidly develop as result of continued urine formation, gastrointestinal secretions, sweating and insensible loses from skin and lung. Weight For the first 10 kg For the next 10-20 kg For each kg > 20 kg Rate 4 ml/kg/h add 2 ml/kg/h add 1 ml/kg/h
Eg: what are the maintenance fluid requirements for 25 kg child? 40 + 20 + 5 = 65 ml/h
Preexisting
deficit
Patients presenting for surgery after an overnight fast without any fluid intake will have a preexisting deficit proportionate to the duration of the fast. Preexisting deficit = normal maintenance rate x length of the fast
Eg : for average 70 kg, fasting for 8 h, this amounts to (40+20+50)ml/h x 8 h = 880 ml Fluid is given part for the first hour, part for the next second hour, and part for the next third hour.
Intraoperative
Fluid Replacement
Intraoperative fluid therapy should include supplying basic fluid requirements and replacing residual preoperative deficit as well as intraoperative losses (blood, fluid redistribution, and evaporation)
1.
Ideally, blood loss should be replaced with crystalloid or colloid to maintain vascular volume until the danger of anemia outweighs the risk of transfusion. The transfusion point can be determined preoperatively from the hematocrit and by estimating blood volume.
