Q

basic fluid management in peds

A
  1. 4-2-1 for maintenance rate 2. calculate NPO deficit (maint x hours NPO - mL of clears) 3. replace 1/2 of deficit over 1st hour and 2nd half over next 2 hours 4. third space losses (mild = 3-4; mod = 5-10; severe = 10-15) 5. evap losses (do not include in the first hour) 6. general rule: no greater than 20 mL/kg/hr

Q

inserting an IO in peds

A
  1. locate tibial tuberosity 2. go 2cm below - flat spot 3. local if pt is awake 4. advance through SubQ until bone felt 5. twist into bone with firm pressure until feel loss of resistance 6. aspirate marrow for confirmation
22
Q

albumin considerations in pediatrics

A
  1. considered a blood product - consider jehovahs witness 2. 5% - only concentration used 3. supports intravascular volume 4. more effective with slow infusion instead of bolus 5. not used a lot in peds
23
Q

if a child loses 10% of blood volume, what should you replace it with?

A

crystalloid (3:1 - LR preferred)

24
Q

if child loses 10-20% of blood volume, what should you replace it with?

A

crystalloid (3:1) or colloid (1:1)

25
Q

if child loses > 20% of blood volume, what should you replace it with

A

blood products (1:1)

26
Q

under what circumstances would you use FFP in peds

A
  1. massive transfusion 2. coagulation issues
27
Q

under what circumstances would you use plts in peds

A
  1. massive transfusion 2. low plts
28
Q

under what circumstances would you use PRBC in peds

A
  1. low H/H (drop of hgb < 7) 2. high blood loss surgery 3. postop
29
Q

10 mL/kg of PRBC will raise hct by ___% and hgb by _____

A

10; 3

30
Q

calculating amount of blood replacement

A

(maximum allowable blood loss x desired hct) / hct of PRBC

31

A

neuronal; glial; synaptogenesis

32
Q

____________________ is programmed cell death in the brain

A

36
Q

which area of the brain is responsible for spatial learning and memory and can be impacted by neuroapoptosis

A

hippocampus

37

A

1-3 mg/kg

40
Q

CV s/e of ketamine

A
  1. typically increase: BP, HR, CO, and myocardial O2 demand (due to indirect inhibition of catechol reuptake) 2. in catecholamine depleted pt these can decrease

metabolism of ketamine

A

CYP450

44

A
  1. cardiac pts - esp if unrepaired (tetralogy any dz where dont want sVR to drop) 2. uncooperative 3. emergence reaction 4. neonates 5. burn pts 6. pts with mitochondrial d/o
