12 hours,
then to 35 ml/kg/hr for 24 hours,
then to 2-3 ml/kg/hr for 24 hours and
then reduced further depending on haemodynamic
status;
IV fluids can be maintained for up to 2448 hours
62
Group C
(Require emergency treatment)
Treatment of compensated shock
If patient is still unstable:
check HCT after 1st bolus;
if HCT increases/still high (>50%), repeat a 2nd bolus of
crystalloid solution at 1020 ml/kg/hr for 1hr
if there is improvement after 2nd bolus, reduce rate to 710
ml/kg/hr for 12 hrs and continue to reduce as above
if HCT decreases, this indicates bleeding and need to
cross-match and transfuse blood as soon as possible
63
Group C
(Require emergency treatment)
Treatment of hypotensive shock
64
Group C
Treatment of hypotensive shock
-If patient is still unstable:
review the HCT taken before the 1st bolus;
if HCT was low (<40% in children), this indicates
bleeding, the need to cross-match and transfuse
if HCT was high compared to baseline value, change to
IV colloids at 1020 ml/kg as a 2nd bolus over 30 minutes
to 1 hr; reassess after second bolus
If patient is improving reduce the rate to 710ml/kg/hr for
12 hr, then back to IV crystalloids and reduce rates as
above
65
Group C
Treatment of hypotensive shock
-If patient is still unstable:
repeat HCT after second bolus.
If HCT decreases, this indicates bleeding
if HCT increases/remains high (>50%), continue colloid
infusion at 1020 ml/kg as a 3rd bolus over 1 hr,
then reduce to 710 ml/kg/h 12 hr, then change back
to crystalloid solution and reduce rate as above
