Hello,
I have a couple of questions about Fluids: [] My understanding is there is a requirement for the rate (or duration) of fluid administration to be present in the order in order to be counted against the 30 ml/kg volume. I think I've heard others say, however, that if there is clear documentation of the actual rate of administration (for example, in nursing documentation such as a MAR or a flowsheet), then this is not required. Does anybody know for sure? [] I understand that plasmaLyte can not be counted against the 30ml/kg volume (though Lactated Ringers can). Is anybody aware of a rationale for this? Thank you, Joe Joseph Clement, MS, RN, CCNS Clinical Nurse Specialist San Francisco General Hospital ph: 415206-6174 pg: 415 327-0220
