Electrolyte & Fluid Management in the ICU: The Clinicians Master Reference

This electrolyte reference prioritizes classification before treatment. Dive into 19 pages covering the complete hyponatremia pathway (osmolality, volume status, urine osmolality, urine sodium), ensuring safe correction with the Adrogue-Madias formula. Understand ODS rate ceilings, including the critical 8 mEq/L per 24h high-risk ceiling, and master overcorrection rescue strategies with D5W and desmopressin. Beyond hyponatremia, explore hypernatremia and the free water deficit, a structured three-layer hyperkalemia protocol detailing onset and duration for each agent, magnesium's role in refractory hypokalemia, phosphate management with ASPEN 2020 refeeding syndrome grading, the nuances of corrected versus ionized calcium (and why the Payne correction can mislead in critical illness), and a comparison of balanced crystalloids versus saline, supported by SMART trial data. Reinforce your learning with six fully worked clinical cases, guiding you through the arithmetic from start to finish. Access a powerful live-formula Excel workbook featuring 24 cells: simply input sodium, glucose, weight, and infusate to instantly calculate TBW, glucose-corrected sodium, Adrogue-Madias change per liter, free water deficit, both 24-hour ceilings, and receive an automatic correction-rate check that alerts you if you're proceeding too quickly. Rely on eight meticulously cited sources, each with its DOI and PubMed identifier, empowering you to verify every number independently.
