question 3
to calculate the daily volume of pediatric maintenance iv fluids, allow the following:
100 ml/kg/day for the first 10 kg of body weight
50 ml/kg/day for the next 10 kg of body weight
20 ml/kg/day for each kg of body weight remaining
calculate the total volume and hourly iv flow rate for a 2,600 g infant receiving maintenance fluids. (simplify your answers completely. round your answers to the nearest whole number.)

question 4
to calculate the daily volume of pediatric maintenance iv fluids, allow the following:
100 ml/kg/day for the first 10 kg of body weight
50 ml/kg/day for the next 10 kg of body weight
20 ml/kg/day for each kg of body weight remaining
calculate the total volume and hourly iv flow rate for a 38 lb (round weight to whole number) child receiving maintenance fluids. (simplify your answers completely. round your answers to the nearest whole number.)

Explanation:

First Problem: 25 kg child

Step1: Calculate first 10 kg volume

$10\ \text{kg} \times 100\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 1000\ \text{mL/day}$

Step2: Calculate next 10 kg volume

$10\ \text{kg} \times 50\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 500\ \text{mL/day}$

Step3: Calculate remaining 5 kg volume

$5\ \text{kg} \times 20\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 100\ \text{mL/day}$

Step4: Sum total daily volume

$1000 + 500 + 100 = 1600\ \text{mL/day}$

Step5: Calculate hourly flow rate

$\frac{1600\ \text{mL}}{24\ \text{hours}} \approx 67\ \text{mL/hour}$

Step1: Convert grams to kg

$2600\ \text{g} = 2.6\ \text{kg}$

Step2: Calculate daily volume

$2.6\ \text{kg} \times 100\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 260\ \text{mL/day}$

Step3: Calculate hourly flow rate

$\frac{260\ \text{mL}}{24\ \text{hours}} \approx 11\ \text{mL/hour}$

Step1: Convert lbs to kg (1 lb ≈ 0.4536 kg)

$38\ \text{lb} \times 0.4536 \approx 17\ \text{kg}$

Step2: Calculate first 10 kg volume

$10\ \text{kg} \times 100\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 1000\ \text{mL/day}$

Step3: Calculate remaining 7 kg volume

$7\ \text{kg} \times 50\ \text{mL/kg/day} = 350\ \text{mL/day}$

Step4: Sum total daily volume

$1000 + 350 = 1350\ \text{mL/day}$

Step5: Calculate hourly flow rate

$\frac{1350\ \text{mL}}{24\ \text{hours}} \approx 56\ \text{mL/hour}$

Answer:

Total volume: 1600 mL/day, Hourly flow rate: 67 mL/hour
