This page is for pediatric patients. For adult patients, see: Intravenous fluid therapy or critical care quick reference for bolus doses by weight.

Background

Composition of Different Intravenous Fluids

Fluid [1] Osm Na Cl Glucose(g/L) pH Buffer K Ca Mg
Plasma 289 140 103 7.4 HCO3 22-32 4 5 2
Normal Saline (NS) 308 154 154 0 5.0 0 0 0 0
D5NS 560 154 154 50 0 0 0
Lactated Ringers 273 130 109 0 6.5 Lactate 28 4 3 0
Plasmalyte 295 140 98 0 5.0 Gluconate 23/Acetate 27 5 0 3
D5 1/2NS 406 77 77 500 4.5 0 0 0 0
D5W 252 0 0 50
5% Albumin 309 130-160 130-160 6.4-7.4 <1

Total Body Water

  • Total Body Water (TBW) = 0.6 x weight (kg)
    • Of which, 2/3 is intracellular and 1/3 extracellular
      • 1/4 of extracellular is vascular

Acute Repletion (Bolus)

Adult Size

Pediatric Size

See critical care quick reference for drug doses by weight.

  • 20 mL/kg per bolus

Maintenance Fluids

Adult Size

  • Insensible losses = 300-400 cc/m2/d
  • Adult Standard: D5 0.45%NS at 75-125 mL/hr + 20meq/L of KCl
  • Deficit: % dehydration x baseline weight
  • Daily volume needed = maintenance + deficit - fluid already given (i.e. boluses)
    • Hourly rate daily volume/24 hr

Pediatric Size (4-2-1 Rule)

  • Maintenance fluid default: D5-LR + 20meq/L of KCl or other isotonic solution
    • Isotonic fluids are now preferred (2019 AAP update)[2]

IVF Quick Reference (Peds)

Age Weight (kg) IVF (mL/hr)
Premature 2 8
Newborn 3.5 14
2mo 5 20
4mo 6.5 26
6mo 8 32
8mo 9 36
12mo 10 40
15mo 11 42
2yr 13 46
3yr 15 50
5yr 19 58

Calculation Details

  • mL/hr =
    • (4 x first 10kg) +
    • (2 x second 10kg) +
    • (1 x every 1kg after)
  • Example: For a 34 kg infant, you should run the IVF at 74 mL/hr. Often people choose to round to multiples of 5.

Alternative Calculation Method

Weight (kg)

Fluid Rate
Example
<10
 4 mL/kg per hour

8 kg infant:

4mL/kg per hour x 8 kg

10 to 20

40 mL/h +

2 mL/kg per hour per each add kg

15 kg child:

40 mL/h +

2 mL/kg per hour x 5 kg

>20

60 mL/h +

1 mL/kg per hour per each add kg

30 kg child:

60 mL/h +

1 mL/kg per hour x 10 kg

Electrolytes

  • Maintenance Na = 3 mEq/kg/d; K = 2 mEq/kg/d
  • Deficit = [desired - measured mEq/L] x fD x wt (kg)
  • fD (distribution factor) Na = 0.6, K = 0.6, Cl = 0.2-0.3, HCO3 = 0.5
  • (Maintenance + deficit)/daily volume = concentration of electrolyte in fluid to be given
  • 4mL/kg of H2O lost, ups Na by 1meq
