Zorluk: OrtaTrauma and Burns

A 42-year-old woman is transported to the emergency department after a grease fire erupted at the commercial kitchen where she works. The incident occurred exactly 3 hours before her arrival at the trauma center. She weighs 80 kg80 \text{ kg}. On primary survey, her airway is patent, breathing is spontaneous but tachypneic, and hemodynamics are stable. Physical examination reveals deep partial-thickness and full-thickness burns involving her entire anterior trunk, her entire right arm, and the anterior surface of her right lower extremity. The remainder of her skin is uninjured. Using the traditional Parkland formula (4 mL/kg/%TBSA4 \text{ mL/kg/\%TBSA}), at what rate (in mL/hour\text{mL/hour}) should the initial intravenous crystalloid infusion be set to deliver the appropriate fluid volume over the remainder of the first 8-hour window?

Cevap: 1152 mL/hour

Cevap

The initial fluid resuscitation rate should be set to 1152 mL/hour.
The correct calculation identifies 36%36\% TBSA using the Rule of Nines, computes the total 24-hour fluid requirement as 11,520 mL11,520 \text{ mL}, allocates half (5,760 mL5,760 \text{ mL}) to the first 8 hours post-injury, and divides this volume by the remaining 5 hours to achieve the appropriate rate of 1,152 mL/hour1,152 \text{ mL/hour}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) affected by the burns.
18%+9%+9%=36%18\% + 9\% + 9\% = 36\% TBSA
According to the adult Rule of Nines, the anterior trunk is 18%18\%, the entire right arm is 9%9\%, and the anterior surface of one leg is 9%9\%.
2
Calculate the total fluid requirement for the first 24 hours using the traditional Parkland formula.
4 mL×80 kg×36%=11,520 mL4 \text{ mL} \times 80 \text{ kg} \times 36\% = 11,520 \text{ mL}
The Parkland formula dictates 4 mL4 \text{ mL} of Lactated Ringer's per kg\text{kg} of body weight per percent of TBSA burned.
3
Calculate the fluid volume required for the first 8 hours.
11,520 mL÷2=5,760 mL11,520 \text{ mL} \div 2 = 5,760 \text{ mL}
Half of the total 24-hour calculated fluid volume must be administered in the first 8 hours following the burn injury.
4
Determine the time remaining in the initial 8-hour window.
8 hours−3 hours=5 hours8 \text{ hours} - 3 \text{ hours} = 5 \text{ hours}
The first 8-hour window begins at the time of the injury, not the time of hospital arrival. The patient arrived 3 hours post-injury.
5
Calculate the hourly infusion rate.
5,760 mL÷5 hours=1,152 mL/hour5,760 \text{ mL} \div 5 \text{ hours} = 1,152 \text{ mL/hour}
Dividing the required fluid volume by the remaining hours gives the constant rate for the infusion pump.
