1) Maintenance fluid therapy aims to prevent dehydration, electrolyte disturbances, and protein degradation in sick infants and children whose oral intake is uncertain.
2) Fluid requirements are calculated based on weight and age using the "4-2-1 rule" or Holliday-Segar formula. Common maintenance fluids include 0.45% saline with potassium chloride.
3) Careful monitoring of weight, urine output, and serum sodium is important when administering intravenous fluids to avoid complications like hyponatremia. Replacement fluids should promptly replace ongoing losses from vomiting, diarrhea, or altered renal output.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

14. CONCEPT OF MAINTENANCE OF WATER
Crucial component of maintenance fluid therapy.
Maintenance water = Measurable loss of water 65%
(Urine 60%, stools 5%) + Insensible loss of water 35%
(skin & lungs)
15. FOR NEONATES
Day 1 60 ml/kg/day
Day 2 90 ml/kg/day
Day 3 120 ml/kg/day
Day 4 150 ml/kg/day (maximum for term infants)
Day 5 to 3 months 150 ml/kg/day
17. Maintenance Fluids

*Nelsons Text book of pediatrics 19th edition
18. CONCEPT OF MAINTENANCE OF
ELECTROLYTES
Insensible water loss contains no electrolytes
So, sodium & potassium present in the urine, stools
& sweat would be the amount to be replaced plus
the sodium & potassium required for
metabolism of the body.

Lactated Ringer’’s (RL): Isotonic, 273 mOsm/L.II.
Contains 130 mEq/L Na+, 109 mEq/L Cl, 28 mEq/L lactate, and 4
mEq/L K+, 3 mEq/L Ca++
Lactate is used instead of bicarb because it's more stable in IVF
during storage.
Lactate is converted readily to bicarb by the liver.
Has minimal effects on normal body fluid composition and pH. More
closely resembles the electrolyte composition of normal blood serum.
Does not provide calories.
23. HOW TO CHOOSE?*

and for ongoing fluid therapy in older children with
normal serum glucose. Fluid of choice in patients with
head injury
5% dextrose + 0.9%

Suitable for ongoing fluid therapy in infants and
children, including post-operative cardiac patients
10%dextrose + 0.45%
sodium
chloride
Suitable for ongoing fluid therapy in neonates or older
infants who are hypoglycaemic, including post-operative
cardiac patients
24. MONITORING WHILE ADMINISTERING FLUIDS*
Child should be weighed prior to the commencement of
therapy, and daily afterwards.
Children with ongoing dehydration/ongoing losses may
need 6 hourly weights to assess hydration status
All children on IV fluids should have serum electrolytes
and glucose checked before commencing the infusion
(typically when the IV is placed) and again within 24 hours
if IV therapy is to continue.
*Royale Children’s Hospital Melbourne Guidelines
25. MONITORING WHILE ADMINISTERING FLUIDS
For more unwell children, check the electrolytes and
glucose 4-6 hours after commencing, and then according
to results and the clinical situation but at least daily.
Pay particular attention to the serum sodium on measures
of electrolytes. If <135mmol/L (or falling significantly on
repeat measures) If >145mmol/L (or rising significantly
repeat measures)
on
Children on iv fluids should have a fluid balance chart
documenting input, ongoing losses and urine output.
26. MAINTENANCE FLUIDS & HYPONATREMIA*
Production of ADH leading to water retention
leading to water intoxication.
Patients producing ADH due to subtle volume
depletion can be safely treated with fluids
containing higher sodium concentration, decrease
in fluid rate or the combination of both.
Persistent ADH production due to underlying
disease requires less than total maintenance fluids
Individualization & careful monitoring is must.

28. REPLACEMENT FLUIDS
In addition to normal maintenance fluid
requirements, unwell children may need:
Fluid resuscitation for shock
Replacement of pre-existing fluid losses
Replacement of ongoing fluid losses
29. REPLACEMENT FLUIDS
GI losses are accompanied with loss of potassium,
bicarbonate leading to metabolic acidosis.
Impossible to predict the loses for next 24 hrs, so
measure & replace excess GI losses as they occur.
So each ml of the diarrheal stool or the vomitus
should be replaced by the same amount every 1 to
6 hourly.

Replace Urine output ml/ml by half NS
Polyuria
Place patient on insensible fluids (25 to 40% of maintenance)
Measure urine electrolytes
Replace Urine output ml/ml by solution based on measured urine
electrolytes
*Nelsons Text book of pediatrics 19th edition
37. TAKE HOME MESSAGE
Fluid is like “prescription” so give it with caution.
Children are more vulnerable for rapid fluid loss.
Maintenance calculation by “4-2-1” rule or Holliday
formula.
Segar’s
Vigilant Monitoring of WEIGHT, URINE OUTPUT, SERUM
SODIUM CONCENTRATION while giving fluid is must.
As far as possible try to give maintenance fluid requirement
orally.
0.45% DNS + 20 mEq/l KCl is ideal fluid in most of the children
requiring maintenance therapy.
Replacement of fluids should be prompt & appropriate.
