1 Goals 1. Identify & develop complete pharmacotherapy plan for patient with fluid &/or electrolyte disorder 2. Explain pharmacotherapy recommendations Objectives 1. State common signs/symptoms of fluid & electrolyte disorders 2. Identify common causes of fluid, Na, K, Ca, Mag, phosphate disorders 3. Assess electrolyte depletion 4. Identify/Interpret laboratory/diagnostic information in determining fluid / electrolyte disorders 5. Develop complete pharmacotherapy plans for patients with fluid & electrolyte disorders Take home message Role of clinical pharmacist 1. Develop therapeutic plan using evidence-based medicine 2. Maximize outcomes 3. Minimize unwanted effects 4. Use most cost-effective therapies Pharmacotherapy Plan Template - 5 Problem Goal of therapy Pharmacotherapy Plan Monitoring strategy 1. Identify specific problem i.e. hypokalemia, hyperkalemia, severe hypercalcemia 2. Design appropriate therapy goal 3. Design patient specific pharmacotherapy plan 4. Design appropriate monitoring strategy to evaluate plan effectiveness Pathophysiology Review 7, 8, 9 1. Total Body Weight composition changes with age younger you are higher total body weight = fluid; % decreases with age o adults = 50 60% o pediatrics = 65-70% o newborns = 70 75% o preemies = 75 80% 2. Fluid is contained in two compartments intracellular compartment extracellular compartment o contains multiple components 1. interstitial 2. plasma/intravascular 3. transcellular ICF = Intracellular fluid ECF= Extracellular fluid Extracellular Space 1 Renal

2 Pathophysiology Review (Continued) 3. Fluid distribution example Age Weight (kg) % Total Body H20 Total Liters Intracellular Extracellular (2/3 rds of total H20) (1/3 rd of total H20) Adult % (presumed) 70(50%)= 35 L 35 L x 2/3rds = 24 L 11 L Natural fluid distribution = 2/3 rds intracellular; 1/3 rd extracellular 4. IV Fluid Selection Must determine where fluids distribute Osmolality of intracellular space = extracellular osmolality 280 mosm D5W distributes just as natural fluid distribution occurs 2/3 rds extracellular / 1/3 rd intracellular IV Fluid % distribution % distribution Intracellular Compartment Extracellular Compartments 1. D5W 2/3rds = 66.6% 1/3rd=33.3% 2. NS 0 % 100 % in all of the 3 extracellular compartments 3. Colloids 0 % 100 % plasma/intravascular part of extracellular space NS introduces sodium into the extracellular space changing the osmolarity of this space. This results in differing osmolarity between the intracellular and extracellular spaces. End result NS distributes to all of compartments within the extracellular space. IV fluids come in 4 different forms: 1. Crystalloids 2. Colloids 3. Blood / blood products 4. Oxygen-carrying solutions Crystalloid 9, 10 a substance whose particles are smaller than those of a Intravenous crystalloid fluids COLLOID, form a true solution, and are therefore capable of passing through a semipermeable MEMBRANE ( IV fluids containing varying concentrations of electrolytes Crystalloids are classified based on tonicity Tonicity describes the concentration of electrolytes (solutes) dissolved in the water in comparison with that of body plasma (fluid that surrounds cells) Crystalloid Concentration Definitions Isotonic Crystalloid 1. Iso = same Crystalloid concentration = plasma concentration 2. Tonic = concentration Tonicity of isotonic crystalloid = plasma tonicity Hypertonic Crystalloid 1. Hyper = high Crystalloid concentration > plasma concentration 2. Tonic = concentration Tonicity of hypertonic crystalloid > plasma tonicity Hypotonic Crystalloid 1. Hypo = low Crystalloid concentration < plasma concentration 2. Tonic = concentration Tonicity of hypotonic crystalloid is < plasma tonicity 2 Renal

3 Colloid IV Fluids -10 IV fluids containing large proteins and molecules that tend to stay within the vascular space (blood vessels) 1. Albumin; 2. blood products (i.e. PRBC, single donor plasma); 3. plasma protein fraction (Plasmanate); 4. synthetic colloids (hetastarch [Hespan R, Hextend R ], dextran) Pathophysiology Review -11 Osmolality = the measure of the number of dissolved particles in a fluid. Where will the fluid bolus go in each example below? 70 X 0.6 = 42 2/3rds = ICF = 28 L; 1/3 ECF = 14 L Intracellular osmolality is equivalent to the Extracellular osmolality fluid freely moves between these spaces normally. Assumption: pt. has normal volumes: 28 L intravascular space; 14 L in extracellular space Example 1: Adult; 70 kg.; D5W 1500 ml bolus Example 2: Adult; 70 kg; NS 1500 ml bolus Example 3: Adult; 70 kg; D5NS 1500 ml bolus Intracellular Extracellular Osm Normal Vol. 28 L 14 L Add Volume After Addition Volume After Addition D5W 29 L 14.5 L 1 L; 2/3 rds of 1500 ml 0.5 L; 1/3 rd of 1500 ml NS 28 L 15.5 L No change 1.5 L; all 1500 ml D5NS 28.5 ml 15 L 500 ml D5W 750 ml NS ml D5W D5NS: ½ volume = 750 ml is NS and ½ volume = 750 ml is D5W NS (750 ml): All 750 ml distributes into the extracellular space. D5W (750 ml): 2/3rds (66.6 % x 750 ml 500 ml) distributes into the intracellular space; 1/3 rd (33.3 % x 750 ml 250 ml) distributes into the extracellular space Dextrose distributes into intracellular & extracellular compartments in a 2/3rds, 1/3 rd distribution. 3 Renal

Correct imbalance in fluid or electrolyte 3. Manage fluid and electrolyte needs in an ongoing disease state where there is continuous loss 4. Daily fluid maintenance Fluid Selection for Volume Expansion 15, 16 Questions to Ask 1. What compartment needs volume? 2. What fluid will fill that compartment? NS, LR, PRBC, hetastarch, or albumin 3. What factors justify the selection? Fluid Compartment Justification NS Extracellular Shock, hypotension, immediate LR Extracellular Shock, hypotension, acidemia present PRBC Intravascular Add to a crystalloid, acute blood loss present Hetastarch Intravascular Add to crystalloid to sustain longer results when albumin is low & not due to blood loss Albumin Intravascular Acceptable only when serum albumin < 2 gm/dl & cause not due to blood loss Infusion rates are based on fluid, age, & condition - 16 Age Rate Monitoring Adult Any acceptable rate BP hourly Pediatric > 1 yr. 20 ml/ kg bolus HR hourly Pediatric > 0-1 yr. 10 ml/ 10 ml/hr. bolus HCT Neonate Albumin 5 10 ml/ kg. bolus K +/- all lytes 1. Adults usually can accept any rate except those with: heart failure; renal failure; or end stage liver failure 2. Clotting factors may not be necessary unless giving multiple blood products/large volumes of crystalloids 3. ABG only necessary in shock state with acid based disorders I/O daily ABG +/- Clotting factors +/- 4 Renal
