Okay, here are the steps to calculate fluid and electrolyte deficits:1. % dehydration = (Pre-illness wt - Current wt)/Pre-illness wt x 100 = (7-6.3)/7 x 100 = 10% 2. Fluid deficit (L) = % dehydration x Pre-illness weight (kg) = 10% x 7 kg = 0.7 L3. Na+ deficit (mEq) = Fluid deficit (L) x 0.6 x 145 = 0.7 x 0.6 x 145 = 71 mEq 4. K+ deficit (mEq) = Fluid deficit (L) x 0.4 x

2. INTRODUCTION:
• Dehydration resulting from acute diarrheal illness is one of the most
significant causes of morbidity and mortality in the population.
• In some cases, it accounts for more than 50% of the deaths during
the initial stages of a humanitarian emergency.
• Worldwide, over 3 million children under 5 years die from
dehydration every year. (WHO)
• The use of oral rehydration therapy (ORT) has markedly reduced the
morbidity and mortality associated with dehydration caused by
diarrheal illness regardless of the etiology.

5. Normal anatomy and physiology
• Water comprises 60% of the body weight of an
average adult although the percentage is lower in
obesity, since adipose tissue contains less water
than lean tissue.
• The total body water is divided functionally
– Extracellular (ECF = 20% of body weight)
– Intracellular fluid spaces (ICF = 40% of body weight)
– These are separated by the cell membrane with its
active sodium pump which ensures that sodium
remains largely in the ECF

11. Disturbances of fluid homeostasis
• Disturbance of fluid balance (intake≠output)
– Dehydraton, Overhydration (hyperhydration)
• Disturbance of osmolarity (electrolyte intake≠water
intake)
– Isotonic
– Hypotonic
– Hypertonic
Lobo ND, Lewington AJP, Allison SP. Basic concept of fluid and electrolyte therapy. Page no-9-23
12. DEFINITION:
• Dehydration is a condition that can occur with
excess loss of water and other body fluids.
Dehydration results from decreased intake,
increased output (renal, gastrointestinal or
insensible losses), a shift of fluid (eg, ascites,
effusions), or capillary leak of fluid (eg, burns
and sepsis).
13. Diarrhea

An increase in the fluidity, volume and
frequency of stools. (>3 times/ day)
• Acute diarrhea: Short in duration (less than
2 weeks).
• Chronic diarrhea: 2 weeks or more

• By far the most common
• Equal losses of Na and Water
• Na = 130-150
• No significant change between fluid
compartments
• No need to correct slowly
26. Hyponatremic Dehydration
• Sodium loss > Water loss
• Na <130mmol/L
• Water shifts from ECF to ICF
• Child appears relatively more ill
• Less intravascular volume
• More clinical signs
• Cerebral edema
• Seizure and Coma with Na <120
• Increase rate of Sr. Na level should be less
than 0.5 mEq/L (Central pontine myelinolysis)

• Water shifts from ICF to ECF
• Child appears relatively less ill
• More intravascular volume
• Less physical signs (Dry doughy skin/ Inc. muscle tone)
• Alternating between lethargy and hyperirritability
• Decrease rate of Sr. Na level should be less

30. Approach to Dehydration
1) Initial Resuscitation
2) Determine % dehydration
3) Define the type of dehydration
4) Determine the type and rate of
rehydration fluids
5) Final considerations
31. Management of Dehydration
• General Principles:
1. Supply Maintenance Requirements
2. Correct volume and electrolyte deficit
3. Replace ongoing abnormal losses
32. 1. Maintenance Volume: Calorie
Calculations
1. Basal Calorie Method
2. Holliday- Segar method
3. Body Surface area method
34. HOLLIDAY-SEGAR METHOD
C AMY, BILLY S.A. Diagnosis and Management of Dehydration in Children. American Family Physician.
2009,oct;80(7):692-96.
35. BODY SURFACE METHOD:
Should not be used in children < 10kg.
STANDARD VALUES FOR USE IN BODY SURFACE AREA (BSA) METHOD
H2O 1500 ml/m2/24 hr
Na+ 30-50 mEq/m2/24 hr
K+ 20-40 mEq/m2/24 hr
m2 = meters squared
36. 2. Deficit Repletion
• Water deficit Volume:
Water Deficit (L) = Pre-illness weight (kg) - Illness
weight (kg)
% Dehydration = (Pre-illness weight – Illness
weight)/ Pre-illness weight x 100
• Each 1% dehydration corresponds to 10ml/kg
fluid deficit
37. 3. Ongoing Losses
• Regardless of the degree of dehydration,
give additional 10ml/ kg of ORS for each
additional diarrheal stool.
38. • Na+ deficit (mEq) = fluid deficit (L) x proportion
from ECF (0.6) x Na+
conc. (mEq/L) in ECF (145)
• K+ deficit (mEq) = fluid deficit (L) x proportion
from ICF (0.4) x K+ conc. (mEq/L)
in ICF(150)
• Excess Electrolyte Deficits:
mEq required = [conc. desired (mEq/L) – conc.
present (mEq/L) x fluid deficit x weight
39. • Free water deficit: 4ml/kg x pre-illness wt. (kg)
(FWD) x [Conc. present (mEq/L) –
[Conc. desired (mEq/L)]
• Solute fluid Deficit: Total fluid deficit – FWD
(SFD)
– Solute Na+ deficit = SFD (L) x 0.6 x 145
– Solute K+ deficit = SFD (L) x 0.4 x 150

46. Q. 7 kg (pre-illness weight) infant ill for > 3 days
clinically appears 10% dehydrated. Current
weight 6.1 kg. Serum Na+ = 160 mEq/L
47.
48. Severe Dehydration
• Management of severe dehydration requires
IV fluids.
• Choice of fluid: Normal saline(NS) or Ringer
Lactate (RL)
• Fluid selection and rate should be dictated by
• The type of dehydration
• The serum Na
• Clinical findings
• Aggressive IV NS bolus remains the mainstay
of early intervention in all subtypes
52. Plan A (No Dehydration)
Oral rehydration therapy to prevent Dehydration
Age ORT fluids to give Amount of ORS to
after each loose stool provide for use at home
< 24 months 50 - 100 ml 500 ml/ day
2 – 10 years 100 – 200 ml 1000 ml/ day
> 10 years Ad lib 2000 ml/ day
Give Supplemental Zinc (10-20 mg) to the child, everyday for 10 to 14 days
53. Plan B (Some Dehydration)
1. Daily fluid requirement:
– Up to 10 kg = 100 ml/ kg
10 – 20 kg = 50 ml/ kg
> 20 kg = 20 ml/ kg
2. Deficit replacement:
75 ml/ kg ORS to be given over 4 hours
3. Replace losses:
ORS should be administered in volumes equal
to diarrheal losses. Maximum of 10 ml/ kg
per stool.
4. Give Supplemental Zinc (20 mg) to the child,
everyday for 10 to 14 days
54. Plan C (Severe Dehydration)
• Treated with 20 mL/ kg IV of isotonic crystalloid
over 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat as necessary.
• Monitor pulse strength, capillary refill time, mental
status, urine output and electrolytes.
• After resuscitation: A total of 100 ml/ kg of fluid
given over 3 hours in children > 12 months and
over 6 hours in children < 12 months.
• Assess the patient every 3 hours accordingly repeat
Plan C or shift to Plan B
Age 30 ml/ kg 70 ml/ kg
< 12 months 1 hour 5 hour
> 12 months 30 min 2 ½ hour
55. ORS Mechanism
• In normal physiological state, water is absorbed osmotically
across the small bowel through tight junctions between
epithelial cells due to a sodium gradient that is maintained
by 2 mechanisms of sodium absorption in the brush border
membrane of the luminal cell:
– passive sodium/potassium diffusion
– active co-transport of sodium jointly with monosaccharides
such as glucose.
• In diarrheal illness, the passive absorptive mechanism of
sodium and chloride is impaired, but glucose absorption
remains largely intact. This allows the absorption of enough
water and sodium to compensate for fluid losses as
significant as those seen in cholera.

58. ADVANTAGES OF LOW OSMOLARITY
ORS
• Promotes more effective water and sodium
absorption.
• No additional risk for hypernatremia.
• Better acceptability due to taste
• Decreases volume, purge rate and duration of
diarrhea.
• More stability of reconstituted solution.
• Single formulation promoted for all ages,
irrespective of etiology or nutrition status.
59. Cereal based ORS/ Rice based ORS
• Super ORS
• Superior to WHO ORS in efficacy in patients
with cholera.
• Similar efficacy in non- cholera diarrhea
• Advantages:
– Decreased purge rate
– Slow release of glucose from starch
60. Other types of ORS
• ReSoMal: Rehydration Solution in severely
Malnourished children with dehydration.
• Potassium deficiency but have high Sodium.
• Deficiency of magnesium, zinc and copper.
• Contents:
– Potassium: 40 mEq/ L
– Sodium: 45 mEq/ L
– Magnesium, zinc, copper.
61. Dehydration in Severe Malnutrition
• With some or severe dehydration but who are
not shocked should be rehydrated slowly, either
orally or by nasogastric tube.
• ReSoMal: Rehydration Solution in severely
Malnourished children should be used.
• 5ml/ kg Resomal every 30 mins for first 2 hrs.
• If still dehydrated, 5-10ml/kg/hr should be given
in alternate hours with F-75 for max 10 hrs.
• Signs of improved hydration status and
overhydration checked every half hour for first 2
hrs then hourly.
62. • Children with SAM and signs of shock or severe
dehydration and who cannot be rehydrated
orally or by NG tube should be treated with IV
fluids 15ml/kg/hr.
• Half strength darrow’s soln. with 5% dextrose
Ringer lactate solution with 5% dextrose.
• Monitor child every 5 – 10 mins for signs of
overhydration and signs of CCF.
• If child does not improve with 1 hr of IV fluid,
blood transfusion 10ml/kg slowly over 3 hours.
