Why ? Essential for surgeons (and all physicians) Knowledge can diagnose, treat and prevent
many of the problems in surgical patients
Most abnormalities are relatively simple, and many
iatrogenic

Fluid Compartments
Total Body Water Relatively constant Depends upon fat content and varies with age
Men 60% (neonate 80%, 70 year old 45%) Women 50%

It’s All About Balance
Gains and Losses Most individuals ingest approx 2 – 2.5 L/day Losses
Sensible and Insensible Typical adult, typical day
Skin 600 ml Lungs 400 ml Kidneys 1500 ml Feces 100 ml
Balance can be dramatically impacted by illness and medical care
![Page 6: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How much fluid can a patient lose if a patient could lose fluid?
Sensible losses Blood (most pts can tolerate 500 cc BL) Sweat (up to 4 L /day) Tears – (diarrhea)
Insensible losses Skin 250 cc/day/degree fever Trach/vent – upto 1500 cc/day Peritoneum - > 1/day Third spacing

Fluid Movement
Is a continuous process Diffusion
Solutes move from high to low concentration Osmosis
Fluid moves from low to high solute concentration. Active Transport
Solutes kept in high concentration compartment Requires ATP
![Page 10: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Movement of Water
Osmotic activity
Normal around 300 mOsm/L
Osmolality determined by concentration of solutes

Volume Deficit Most common surgical disorder Signs and symptoms
CNS: sleepiness, apathy, reflexes, coma GI: anorexia, N/V, ileus CV: orthostatic hypotension, tachycardia with
peripheral pulses Skin: turgor Metabolic: temperature

What kind of fluid are we losing?
Sweat – hypotonic (low sodium) Insensible loss is pure water GI loss is usually isotonic
Stomach – acid, high CL Pancreas/bile – high HCO3 Saliva – high K
![Page 15: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IV fluids a la carte
NaCl Normal saline (0.9%) has 154 mEq/L Na, 154
mEq Cl ½ Normal has 77 mEq Na/Cl
Lactated Ringers Has 130 Na, 109 Cl (also has some K, Ca,
lactate) D5Water
Good replacement for insensible losses

6 month old boy, born full-term Developed worsening vomiting during the
past week Today he is listless, irritable, not tolerating
oral intake Pulse 145, BP 70/50 Diaper is dry, anterior fontanel depressed

Treatment – Patient weight is 12 kg
Fluid choice? Replace volume Replace K/Cl
How to order “Bolus”
Think about rate over time Adequate access important
What would maintenance fluid choice and rate be?
4-2-1 rule
![Page 20: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Acid – Base Balance
Acidosis May result from decreased perfusion i.e. decreased
intravascular volume K will move out of cells (K+ - H+ exchange)
Alkalosis Complex physiologic response to more chronic
volume depletion i.e. vomiting, NG suction, pyloric stenosis, diuretics K will move intracellular

Case 2 Diagnoses?
New onset A fib, why?
Hypervolemia Hyponatremia Hypokalemia Hypomagnesemia Anemia
![Page 26: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Increased Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH)
Causes Surgical stress (physiologic) Cancers (pancreas, oat cell) CNS (trauma, stroke) Pulmonary (tumors, asthma, COPD) Medications
Anticonvulsants, antineoplastics, antipsychotics, sedatives (morphine)
![Page 28: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Hyponatremia – how to classify Na loss
True loss of Na Dilutional (water excess) Inadequate Na intake
Classified by extracellular volume Hypovolemic (hyponatremia)
Diuretics, renal, NG, burns Isovolemic (hyponatremia)
Liver failure, heart failure, excessive hypotonic IVF
Hypervolemic (hyponatremia) Glucocorticoid deficiency, hypothyroidism
![Page 29: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Case 2 - How to treat
A fib: ACLS protocol Correct electrolytes
Replace Mg and K Decrease volume, fluid restriction
![Page 31: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Case 3
23 year old with jejunostomy Had colon and ileum resected due to injury
Tolerates some oral nutrition, but has high output from jejunostomy (2.5 liters per day), therefore requires TPN
P 118, BP 105/60

Current Problems
Hypovolemia Increased plasma osmolarity
2 X 154 + (213/18) + (28/1.8) = 335 Hypernatremia Renal insufficiency Acidosis
![Page 34: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Case 3 - Hypovolemia
Fistula output High volumes can rapidly lead to dehydration Electrolyte composition can be difficult to
estimate Can send aliquot to laboratory
May need to be replaced separately from maintenance (TPN) fluids
Hyperglycemia
![Page 35: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Hypernatremia
Relatively too little H2O Free water loss (burns, fever, fistulas) Diabetes insipidus (head trauma, surgery,
infections, neoplasm) Dilute urine (Opposite of SIADH)
Osmotic diuresis Nephrogenic DI
Kidney cannot respond to ADH Too much Na, usually iatrogenic
![Page 36: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Hypernatremia
[0.6 X wt (kg)] X [Serum Na/140 - 1]
Free water deficit:
Example:Na 154, 60 kg person
(0.6 X 60) X [(154/140) - 1]36 X [1.1 -1]36 X 0.1 = 3.6 Liters

Hyperkalemia - Common Causes
Hemolyzed specimen
Underlying disease Renal failure Rhabdomyolysis
Associated medications Too much K+, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers,
antibiotics, chemotherapy, NSAIDS, spironolactone
![Page 41: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Potassium and Ph
Normally 98% intracellular Acidosis
Extracellular H+ increases, H+ moves intracellular, forcing K+ extracellular
Alkalosis Intracellular H+ decreases, K+ moves into cells
(to keep intracellular fluid neutral)
![Page 42: Fluids and Electrolytes for surgeons](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56816581550346895dd81e74/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Hyperkalemia - Treatment
Emergency (> 6 mEq/l) Monitor ECG, VS Calcium gluconate IV (arrhythmias) Insulin and glucose IV Kayexalate, Lasix + IVF, dialysis
Mild to Moderate Mild: dietary restriction, assess medications Moderate: Kayexalate Severe: dialysis
