Abstract
Correct fluid and electrolyte concentrations are essential to reduce mortality in critically ill infants. The authors list considerations in calculating the necessary maintenance volumes and emphasize the importance of continuous monitoring of data and a review and retabulation every eight hours, because requirements vary from one infant to the other, and in the same infant under different circumstances.
