Explanation:

First Problem (10. - / 2 Points)

Step1: Convert grams to kg

$8500\ \text{g} = \frac{8500}{1000} = 8.5\ \text{kg}$

Step2: Apply 4/2/1 fluid rule

For first 10 kg: $100\ \text{mL/kg/day} \times 8.5\ \text{kg} = 850\ \text{mL/day}$

Step3: Calculate hourly rate

$\text{Hourly rate} = \frac{850}{24} \approx 35\ \text{mL/hr}$

Use the standard pediatric maintenance fluid rule:

• 100 mL/kg for first 10 kg
• 50 mL/kg for 11-20 kg
• 20 mL/kg for >20 kg

(a) 9.8 kg

Step1: Calculate daily fluid
$100 \times 9.8 = 980\ \text{mL}$

(b) 17.8 kg

Step1: First 10 kg: $100 \times 10 = 1000$
Step2: Remaining 7.8 kg: $50 \times 7.8 = 390$
Step3: Sum: $1000 + 390 = 1390\ \text{mL}$

(c) 15 kg

Step1: First 10 kg: $100 \times 10 = 1000$
Step2: Remaining 5 kg: $50 \times 5 = 250$
Step3: Sum: $1000 + 250 = 1250\ \text{mL}$

(d) 48 kg

Step1: First 10 kg: $100 \times 10 = 1000$
Step2: 11-20 kg: $50 \times 10 = 500$
Step3: Remaining 28 kg: $20 \times 28 = 560$
Step4: Sum: $1000 + 500 + 560 = 2060\ \text{mL}$

Answer:

Total daily volume: 850 mL, Hourly IV rate: 35 mL/hr
