Abstract
Parenteral fluid therapy in children requires careful consideration of patient-specific factors such as weight, hydration status, and concomitant disease states. Recent literature has changed the standard of care for maintenance fluids for children in the past decade and brought to light more questions. Concentrations of electrolytes in fluids and the use of balanced fluids are still controversial. This article will review the use of parenteral fluids in children, including fluid content, maintenance fluid rate, treatment of dehydration, and the basics of parenteral fluid ingredients. All pediatric patients should have a plan for fluid therapy that includes careful consideration of hydration status and individual response to therapy.

Abstract
Introduction The incidence of hyponatremia after orthopedic surgery is high. Hyponatremia may prolong hospitalization and increase mortality, but few reports have identified risk factors for hyponatremia after spinal surgery. This study aims to determine the incidence and risk factors for hyponatremia after spinal surgery. Methods A total of 200 patients aged 20 years or older who underwent spinal surgery at our hospital from 2020-2021 were recruited. Data on age, sex, height, weight, body mass index, operation duration, blood loss, albumin level, the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), potassium level, the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), sodium level, length of hospital stay, history of hypertension, dialysis status, the occurrence of delirium during hospital stay, and oral medication use were collected. Comparisons between the postoperative hyponatremia group and the postoperative normonatremia group were conducted to evaluate the impact of hyponatremia on clinical outcomes. Results Postoperative hyponatremia was observed in 56 (28%) of the 200 patients after spinal surgery. Comparison between the postoperative hyponatremia group with the postoperative normonatremia group revealed that the patients in the postoperative hyponatremia group were significantly older (72 versus 68.5 years, p<0.01). Postoperative hyponatremia was significantly associated with low GNRI values (100.8 versus 109.3, p<0.01), low eGFR values (59.2 versus 70.8 mL/min/1.73 m2, p<0.01), preoperative hyponatremia (138.5 vs. 141 mEq/L, p<0.01), and a high incidence of delirium (12.5% versus 2.7%, p=0.01). Older age (odds ratio=1.04, p=0.01) and preoperative hyponatremia (odds ratio=0.66, p value<0.01) were risk factors for postoperative hyponatremia. Conclusions In addition to older age and preoperative hyponatremia, the study identified new risk factors for postoperative hyponatremia, which are preoperative undernutrition and impaired renal function. The incidence of delirium was significantly higher in the postoperative hyponatremia group, suggesting that correcting preoperative hyponatremia and ensuring good nutrition may prevent delirium and thereby shorten hospital stays.

Efficacy and safety of isotonic versus hypotonic intravenous maintenance fluids in hospitalized children: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Pediatr Nephrol 2024; 39:57-84. [PMID: 37365423 PMCID: PMC10673968 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-023-06032-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Iatrogenic hyponatremia is a common complication following intravenous maintenance fluid therapy (IV-MFT) in hospitalized children. Despite the American Academy of Pediatrics' 2018 recommendations, IV-MFT prescribing practices still vary considerably. OBJECTIVES This meta-analysis aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of isotonic versus hypotonic IV-MFT in hospitalized children. DATA SOURCES We searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central from inception to October 1, 2022. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing isotonic versus hypotonic IV-MFT in hospitalized children, either with medical or surgical conditions. Our primary outcome was hyponatremia following IV-MFT. Secondary outcomes included hypernatremia, serum sodium, serum potassium, serum osmolarity, blood pH, blood sugar, serum creatinine, serum chloride, urinary sodium, length of hospital stay, and adverse outcomes. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS Random-effects models were used to pool the extracted data. We performed our analysis based on the duration of fluid administration (i.e., ≤ 24 and > 24 h). The Grades of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) scale was used to evaluate the strength and level of evidence for recommendations. RESULTS A total of 33 RCTs, comprising 5049 patients were included. Isotonic IV-MFT significantly reduced the risk of mild hyponatremia at both ≤ 24 h (RR = 0.38, 95% CI [0.30, 0.48], P < 0.00001; high quality of evidence) and > 24 h (RR = 0.47, 95% CI [0.37, 0.62], P < 0.00001; high quality of evidence). This protective effect of isotonic fluid was maintained in most examined subgroups. Isotonic IV-MFT significantly increased the risk of hypernatremia in neonates (RR = 3.74, 95% CI [1.42, 9.85], P = 0.008). In addition, it significantly increased serum creatinine at ≤ 24 h (MD = 0.89, 95% CI [0.84, 0.94], P < 0.00001) and decreased blood pH (MD = -0.05, 95% CI [-0.08 to -0.02], P = 0.0006). Mean serum sodium, serum osmolarity, and serum chloride were lower in the hypotonic group at ≤ 24 h. The two fluids were comparable in terms of serum potassium, length of hospital stay, blood sugar, and the risk of adverse outcomes. LIMITATIONS The main limitation of our study was the heterogeneity of the included studies. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS OF KEY FINDINGS Isotonic IV-MFT was superior to the hypotonic one in reducing the risk of iatrogenic hyponatremia in hospitalized children. However, it increases the risk of hypernatremia in neonates and may lead to renal dysfunction. Given that the risk of hypernatremia is not important even in the neonates, we propose to use balanced isotonic IV-MFT in hospitalized children as it is better tolerated by the kidneys than 0.9% saline.

Abstract
The purpose of perioperative fluid management in children is to maintain adequate volume status, electrolyte level, and endocrine system homeostasis during the perioperative period. Although hypotonic solutions containing glucose have traditionally been used as pediatric maintenance fluids, recent studies have shown that isotonic balanced crystalloid solutions lower the risk of hyponatremia and metabolic acidosis perioperatively. Isotonic balanced solutions have been found to exhibit safer and more physiologically appropriate characteristics for perioperative fluid maintenance and replacement. Additionally, adding 1-2.5% glucose to the maintenance fluid can help prevent children from developing hypoglycemia as well as lipid mobilization, ketosis, and hyperglycemia. The fasting time should be as short as possible without compromising safety; recent guidelines have recommended that the duration of clear fluid fasting be reduced to 1 h. The ongoing loss of fluid and blood as well as the free water retention induced by antidiuretic hormone secretion are unique characteristics of postoperative fluid management that must be considered. Reducing the infusion rate of the isotonic balanced solution may be necessary to avoid dilutional hyponatremia during the postoperative period. In summary, perioperative fluid management in pediatric patients requires careful attention because of the limited reserve capacity in this population. Isotonic balanced solutions appear to be the safest and most beneficial choice for most pediatric patients, considering their physiology and safety concerns.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intravenous fluid therapy is the most common intervention in critically ill children. There is an increasing body of evidence questioning the safety of high-volume intravenous fluid administration in these patients. To date, the optimal fluid management strategy remains unclear. We aimed to test the feasibility of a pragmatic randomised controlled trial comparing a restrictive with a standard (liberal) fluid management strategy in critically ill children. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Multicentre, binational pilot, randomised, controlled, open-label, pragmatic trial. Patients <18 years admitted to paediatric intensive care unit and mechanically ventilated at the time of screening are eligible. Patients with tumour lysis syndrome, diabetic ketoacidosis or postorgan transplant are excluded. INTERVENTIONS 1:1 random assignment of 154 individual patients into two groups-restrictive versus standard, liberal, fluid strategy-stratified by primary diagnosis (cardiac/non-cardiac). The intervention consists of a restrictive fluid bundle, including lower maintenance fluid allowance, limiting fluid boluses, reducing volumes of drug delivery and initiating diuretics or peritoneal dialysis earlier. The intervention is applied for 48 hours postrandomisation or until discharge (whichever is earlier). ENDPOINTS The number of patients recruited per month and proportion of recruited to eligible patients are feasibility endpoints. New-onset acute kidney injury and the incidence of clinically relevant central venous thrombosis are safety endpoints. Fluid balance at 48 hours after randomisation is the efficacy endpoint. Survival free of paediatric intensive care censored at 28 days is the clinical endpoint. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethics approval was gained from the Children's Health Queensland Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC/21/QCHQ/77514, date: 1 September 2021), and University of Zurich (2021-02447, date: 17 March 2023). The trial is registered with the Australia New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12621001311842). Open-access publication in high impact peer-reviewed journals will be sought. Modern information dissemination strategies will also be used including social media to disseminate the outcomes of the study. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ACTRN12621001311842. PROTOCOL VERSION/DATE V5/23 May 2023.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Identifying predisposing factors to dysnatremia to improve perioperative care after cleft surgery. DESIGN Retrospective case series. Patient data were obtained through the electronic medical records of the hospital. SETTING Tertiary care university hospital. PATIENTS The inclusion criterion was the measurement of an abnormal natremia value, defined as Na >150 or <130 mmol/l after a cleft lip or cleft palate repair procedure. The exclusion criterion was natremia between 131 and 149 mmol/l. RESULTS Natremia measurements were available for 215 patients born between 1995 and 2018. Five patients presented with postoperative dysnatremia. Several predisposing factors to dysnatremia have been identified: drugs, infection, administration of intravenous fluids, and postoperative syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion. Although the hospital environment contributes to dysnatremia development, the fact that only patients undergoing cleft palate repair develop natremia anomalies suggests that this surgery may be itself a risk factor. CONCLUSION Children undergoing palatoplasty may be at higher risk to develop postoperative dysnatremia. Early recognition of symptoms and risk factors, postoperative monitoring, and prompt treatment of dysnatremia diminish the risk of neurological complications.

Abstract
In physiological glucose homeostasis, the liver plays a crucial role in the extraction of glucose from the portal circulation and storage as glycogen to enable release through glycogenolysis upon fasting. In addition, insulin secreted by the pancreas is partly eliminated from the systemic circulation by hepatic first-pass. Therefore, patients with a congenital porto-systemic shunt present a unique combination of (a) postabsorptive hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia (HH) because of decreased insulin elimination and (b) fasting (ketotic) hypoglycaemia because of decreased glycogenolysis. Patients with porto-systemic shunts therefore provide important insight into the role of the portal circulation and hepatic function in different phases of glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) or head trauma present challenges for emergency physicians and neurosurgeons. Traumatic brain injury is currently a community health issue. For the best possible care, it is crucial to understand the various helpful therapy techniques in the pre-operative and pre-hospital phases. The initial rapid infusion of large volumes of mannitol and a hypertonic crystalloid solution to restore blood pressure and blood volume is the current standard of care for people with combined hemorrhagic shock (HS) and traumatic brain injury. The selection and administration of fluids to trauma and traumatic brain injury patients may be especially helpful in preventing subsequent ischemic brain damage because of the hemodynamic stabilizing effects of these fluids in hypovolemic shock. Traumatic brain injury is an essential factor that may lead to disability and death in a patient. Traumatic brain damage can develop either as a direct result of the trauma or as a result of the initial harm. Significant neurologic problems, such as cranial nerve damage, dementia, seizures, and Alzheimer's disease, can develop after a traumatic brain injury. The comorbidity of the victims may also be significantly increased by additional psychiatric problems such as psychological diseases and other behavioral and cognitive sequels. We review the history of modern fluid therapy, complications after traumatic brain injury, and the use of fluid treatment for decompressive craniectomy and traumatic brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyponatremia is common among hospital inpatients. It is generally due to excess free body water resulting from increased water intake and decreased water elimination due to underlying pathology and hormonal influence. However, supporting evidence is lacking for treating mild hyponatremia with fluid restriction. Our study examines the association between hyponatremia and fluid intake in acutely ill inpatients. We hypothesize that fluid intake is not closely associated with serum sodium (SNa). METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of hyponatremia using the Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care (MIMIC) III dataset, a public ICU registry. We analyzed fluid, sodium, and potassium intake with a mixed model linear regression with SNa as the outcome for hyponatremic and non-hyponatremic patients and cumulative total input from one to seven days. In addition, we compared a group of patients receiving less than one liter of fluid per day to a group receiving more than one liter. RESULTS The association of SNa with fluid intake was negative and statistically significant for most cumulative days of intake from one to seven for the total population and those with sporadic hyponatremia. For those with uniform hyponatremia, the negative association was significant for three and four days of cumulative input. The change in SNa was almost always less than 1 mmol/L of additional fluid intake across all groups. SNa for hyponatremic patients who received less than one liter of fluid per day were within one mmol/L of those who received more (p<0.001 for one, two, and seven cumulative intake days). CONCLUSIONS SNa is associated with a change of less than 1 mmol/L across a wide range of fluid and sodium intake in adult ICU patients. Patients who received less than one liter per day had SNa almost identical to those who received more. This suggests that SNa is not tightly coupled with fluid intake in the acutely ill population and that hormonal control of water elimination is the predominant mechanism. This might explain why the correction of hyponatremia by fluid restriction is often difficult.

Abstract
The Korean Society for Electrolyte and Blood Pressure Research, in collaboration with the Korean Society of Nephrology, has published a clinical practice guideline (CPG) document for hyponatremia treatment. The document is based on an extensive evidence-based review of the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of hyponatremia with the multidisciplinary participation of representative experts in hyponatremia with methodologist support for guideline development. This CPG consists of 12 recommendations (two for diagnosis, eight for treatment, and two for special situations) based on eight detailed topics and nine key questions. Each recommendation begins with statements graded by the strength of the recommendations and the quality of the evidence. Each statement is followed by rationale supporting the recommendations. The committee issued conditional recommendations in favor of rapid intermittent bolus administration of hypertonic saline in severe hyponatremia, the use of vasopressin receptor antagonists in heart failure with hypervolemic hyponatremia, and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis with moderate to severe hyponatremia, the individualization of desmopressin use, and strong recommendation on the administration of isotonic fluids as maintenance fluid therapy in hospitalized pediatric patients. We hope that this CPG will provide useful recommendations in practice, with the aim of providing clinical support for shared decision-making to improve patient outcomes.

Balanced Crystalloids versus Normal Saline in Children with Critical Asthma. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:children9101480. [PMID: 36291416 PMCID: PMC9601181 DOI: 10.3390/children9101480] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
There is little known about the impact of maintenance fluid choice in children with critical asthma on clinical outcomes. Our primary study objectives were to determine the differences in the serum chloride and bicarbonate levels based on the receipt of 0.9% saline or a balanced solution. The secondary study objectives included differences in acute kidney injury (AKI) and intensive care unit (ICU)/hospital length of stay (LOS). In this retrospective cohort study, we included 1166 patients admitted to a quaternary children's hospital with critical asthma between 2017 and 2019. The patients were stratified based on if they received 0.9% saline or a balanced solution (Lactated Ringer's or Plasma-lyte) for maintenance therapy. The study outcomes were determined using independent sample t-tests, multivariable logistic regression, and negative binomial regression. The patients who received 0.9% saline maintenance therapy had a significantly higher increase in their serum chloride levels when compared to those who received balanced solutions (0.9% saline: +4 mMol/L, balanced: +2 mMol/L, p = 0.002). There was no difference in the decrease in the serum bicarbonate levels (0.9% saline: -0.4 mMol/L, balanced: -0.5 mMol/L, p = 0.830). After controlling for age, race, sex, and the Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction (PELOD-2) score, there was no association between the type of fluid received and the development of AKI (OR 0.87, 95% CI: 0.46-1.63, p = 0.678). Additionally, there was no association between the type of fluid and hospital or ICU LOS. Thus, despite higher serum chloride levels in the patients that received 0.9% saline, the choice of fluid therapy did not have an impact on the serum bicarbonate values, the development of AKI or hospital and ICU LOS, suggesting there is little difference between 0.9% saline and balanced solutions as maintenance therapy in children with critical asthma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety of giving intravenous (IV) maintenance fluids according to Holliday and Segar's recommendations of 1957 has recently been questioned after reports of complications caused by iatrogenic hyponatremia in children receiving hypotonic fluids. However, the current practice of choice of maintenance IV fluids for hospitalized children varies worldwide. This study was planned to compare 0.45% and 0.9% saline in 5% dextrose at standard maintenance rates in hospitalized children aged 3 months to 12 years. OBJECTIVE Primary objective was to study change in serum sodium level at 24 hours in children receiving total IV fluid maintenance therapy as 0.45% or 0.9% normal saline in 5% dextrose. Secondary objectives of this study were to estimate change in serum sodium levels from the baseline to 48 or 72 hours, if IV fluids were continued, and to find incidence of hyponatremia and hypernatremia after administering these 2 types of maintenance fluids. METHODS This study was an open-label, randomized control trial conducted at the Department of Pediatrics of a tertiary care hospital from July 22, 2019, to October 28, 2019. Two hundred children aged 3 months to 12 years admitted in pediatric emergency and requiring IV maintenance fluid were randomized into 2 groups (group A received 0.45% saline in 5% dextrose, group B received 0.9% normal saline in 5% dextrose) with 100 in each group. RESULTS Both groups were comparable for baseline characteristics. Fall in mean serum sodium from baseline was more with increasing duration of IV fluids until 24 hours in 0.45% saline group as compared with 0.9% saline group, which was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The incidence of mild and moderate hyponatremia was significantly more in hypotonic group at 12 hours (P < 0.001) and 24 hours (P < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference at 48 hours. CONCLUSIONS The fall in serum sodium values was significant, and there was significant risk of hyponatremia with the use of hypotonic fluids at 12 and 24 hours. Hence, the use of isotonic fluids seems to be more appropriate among the hospitalized children.Trial Registration: CTRI/2019/10/021791.

Abstract
Background: Perioperative fluid management in children has been a major topic for debate.
Objectives: Our aim is to review the current evidence on perioperative fluid management in children including: type of fluid, administration rates, preoperative fluid intake and monitoring techniques.
Design: Narrative review.
Method: Following the PRISMA-S guidelines we performed a search (2010-March 2022) in databases Medline (through PubMed) and Cochrane Library. 4297 citations were found and screened by two independent researchers. After screening, 64 articles were withheld for our review.
Results: The perioperative administration of isotonic fluids is safer than hypotonic solutions, concerning the development of hyponatremia. A balanced isotonic solution with 1-2,5% glucose should be used as perioperative maintenance IV fluid in children (1 month to 18 years). Colloids can be used in children when inadequate effect in volume correction is achieved with crystalloids. The preferred synthetic colloid for children is a third generation HES in a balanced solution. To date, most clinicians use the “4-2-1 rule” for calculating fluid rate. This may not be the optimal fluid rate, as little research has been done. Preoperative fasting for clear fluids should be limited to 1 hour, children should even be encouraged to drink up until 1 hour before induction. Respiratory variation of aortic blood flow peak velocity (ΔVpeak) with echocardiography is currently the most reliable technique for evaluating fluid responsiveness in children.

Abstract
The Korean Society for Electrolyte and Blood Pressure Research, in collaboration with the Korean Society of Nephrology, has published a clinical practice guideline (CPG) document for hyponatremia treatment. The document is based on an extensive evidence-based review of the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of hyponatremia with the multidisciplinary participation of representative experts in hyponatremia with methodologist support for guideline development. This CPG consists of 12 recommendations (two for diagnosis, eight for treatment, and two for special situations) based on eight detailed topics and nine key questions. Each recommendation begins with statements graded by the strength of the recommendations and the quality of the evidence. Each statement is followed by rationale supporting the recommendations. The committee issued conditional recommendations in favor of rapid intermittent bolus administration of hypertonic saline in severe hyponatremia, the use of vasopressin receptor antagonists in heart failure with hypervolemic hyponatremia, and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis with moderate to severe hyponatremia, the individualization of desmopressin use, and strong recommendation on the administration of isotonic fluids as maintenance fluid therapy in hospitalized pediatric patients. We hope that this CPG will provide useful recommendations in practice, with the aim of providing clinical support for shared decision-making to improve patient outcomes.

[PMID: 34572217 PMCID: PMC8471545 DOI: 10.3390/children8090785] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Revised: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 09/07/2021] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Hyponatraemia is a known complication in hospitalised children receiving maintenance intravenous fluid. Several studies have been published to investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous fluids in children. However, there is still an ongoing debate regarding the ideal solution to be used in the paediatric population. Therefore, the aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the safety and efficacy of administering isotonic versus hypotonic intravenous maintenance fluid in hospitalised children. An extensive search was undertaken on PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar and Cochrane Library on 28 December 2020. Only randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were included. We used the random-effects model for all analyses. Risk ratio (RR) and mean difference with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used for dichotomous and continuous outcomes, respectively. The quality of each study was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tool for RCTs. This study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42021229067). Twenty-two RCTs with a total of 3795 participants were included. The studies encompassed surgical and medical patients admitted to intensive care unit as well as to general wards. We found that hypotonic fluid significantly increases the risk of hyponatremia at both ≤24 h (RR 0.34; 95% CI: 0.26–0.43, p < 0.00001) and >24 h (RR 0.48; 95% CI: 0.36–0.64, p < 0.00001). Isotonic fluid increases the risk of hypernatraemia at ≤24 h (RR 2.15; 95% CI: 1.24–3.73, p = 0.006). The prevalence of hyponatraemia was also higher in the hypotonic group at both ≤24 h (5.7% vs. 23.3%) and >24 h (6.0% vs. 26.3%). There was no statistically significant difference in the risk of developing adverse outcomes between the two groups. Mean serum and urine sodium as well as serum osmolality/osmolarity was lower in the hypotonic group. Isotonic solution is protective against the development of hyponatraemia while hypotonic solution increases the risk of hyponatraemia.

Abstract
Objective There is no study evaluating the effect on plasma osmolality of both fluid tonicity and high fluid rate at the same time. The aim of this experimental study was to determine the change in the plasma osmolality by different fluid tonicity and rate, and to suggest the safest and the most appropriate fluids based on the plasma osmolality for medical situations requiring fluid therapy with high or maintenance rates. Materials and methods The rats were randomly divided into seven groups (six rats in each group): [D5] D5 administered at 100 ml/kg/24h; [D5150] D5 administered at 150 ml/kg/24h; [D5(½)100] D5 0.45% NaCl administered at 100 ml/kg/24h; [D5(½)150] D5 0.45% NaCl administered at 150 ml/kg/24h; [D5(1)100] D5 0.9% NaCl administered at 100 ml/kg/24h; [D5(1)150] D5 0.9% NaCl administered at 150 ml/kg/24h; [Control group] non-treated control rats. Intracardiac blood samples were collected from all the groups at the end of 24 h. Results [D5(1)150] and [D5(½)100] were the group closest to the control group in terms of both sodium (P = .937; P = .699, respectively) and effective osmolality (P = 1, P = .818, respectively). Conclusion Our results showed that 0.9% NaCl and 0.45% NaCl solutions might be the safest and the most appropriate fluids to maintain normal plasma osmolality in medical situations requiring fluid therapy with high or maintenance rates, respectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the prevalence of dysnatraemias among children admitted for paediatric surgery before and after a change from hypotonic to isotonic intravenous maintenance fluid therapy. DESIGN Retrospective consecutive time series intervention study. SETTING Paediatric surgery ward at the Children's Hospital in Lund, during a 7-year period, 2010-2017. PATIENTS All children with a blood sodium concentration measurement during the study period were included. Hypotonic maintenance fluid (40 mmol/L NaCl and 20 mmol/L KCl) was used during the first 3 years of the study (646 patients), and isotonic solution (140 mmol/L NaCl and 20 mmol/L KCl) was used during the following period (807 patients). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcomes were sodium concentration and occurrence of hyponatraemia (<135 mmol/L) or hypernatraemia (>145 mmol/L). RESULTS Overall, the change from hypotonic to isotonic intravenous maintenance fluid therapy was associated with a decreased prevalence of hyponatraemia from 29% to 22% (adjusted OR 0.65 (0.51-0.82)) without a significantly increased odds for hypernatraemia (from 3.4% to 4.3%, adjusted OR 1.2 (0.71-2.1)). Hyponatraemia <130 mmol/L decreased from 6.2% to 2.6%, and hyponatraemia <125 mmol/L decreased from 2.0% to 0.5%. CONCLUSIONS Routine use of intravenous isotonic maintenance fluids was associated with lower prevalence of hyponatraemia, although hyponatraemia still occurred in over 20% of patients. We propose that the composition and the volume of administered fluid need to be addressed.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The use of isotonic fluid therapy is currently recommended in children, but there is limited evidence of optimal fluid therapy in acutely ill children. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the risk for electrolyte disorders, including hyponatremia, hypernatremia, and hypokalemia, and the risk of fluid retention in acutely ill children receiving commercially available plasmalike isotonic fluid therapy. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This unblinded, randomized clinical pragmatic trial was conducted at the pediatric emergency department of Oulu University Hospital, Finland, from October 3, 2016, through April 15, 2019. Eligible study subjects (N = 614) were between 6 months and 12 years of age, required hospitalization due to an acute illness, and needed intravenous fluid therapy. Exclusion criteria included a plasma sodium concentration of less than 130 mmol/L or greater than 150 mmol/L on admission; a plasma potassium concentration of less than 3.0 mmol/L on admission; clinical need of fluid therapy with 10% glucose solution; a history of diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or diabetes insipidus; a need for renal replacement therapy; severe liver disease; pediatric cancer requiring protocol-determined chemotherapy hydration; and inborn errors of metabolism. All outcomes and samples size were prespecified except those clearly marked as exploratory post hoc analyses. All analyses were intention to treat. INTERVENTIONS Acutely ill children were randomized to receive commercially available plasmalike isotonic fluid therapy (140 mmol/L of sodium and 5 mmol/L potassium in 5% dextrose) or moderately hypotonic fluid therapy (80 mmol/L sodium and 20 mmol/L potassium in 5% dextrose). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was the proportion of children with any clinically significant electrolyte disorder, defined as hypokalemia less than 3.5 mmol/L, hypernatremia greater than 148 mmol/L, or hyponatremia less than 132 mmol/L during hospitalization due to acute illness. The main secondary outcomes were the proportion of children with severe hypokalemia and weight change. RESULTS There were 614 total study subjects (mean [SD] age, 4.0 [3.1] years; 315 children were boys [51%] and all 614 were Finnish speaking [100%]). Clinically significant electrolyte disorder was more common in children receiving plasmalike isotonic fluid therapy (61 of 308 patients [20%]) compared with those receiving moderately hypotonic fluid therapy (9 of 306 patients [2.9%]; 95% CI of the difference, 12%-22%; P < .001). The risk of developing electrolyte disorder was 6.7-fold greater in children receiving isotonic fluid therapy. Hypokalemia developed in 57 patients (19%) and hypernatremia developed in 4 patients (1.3%) receiving plasmalike isotonic fluid therapy. Weight change was greater in children receiving isotonic, plasmalike fluid therapy compared with those receiving mildly hypotonic fluids (mean weight gain, 279 vs 195 g; 95% CI, 16-154 g; P = .02). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this randomized clinical trial, commercially available plasmalike isotonic fluid therapy markedly increased the risk for clinically significant electrolyte disorders, mostly due to hypokalemia, in acutely ill children compared with previously widely used moderately hypotonic fluid therapy containing 20 mmol/L of potassium. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02926989.

Association Between Hyponatremia and Maintenance Intravenous Solutions in Critically Ill Children: A Retrospective Observational Study. Front Pediatr 2021; 9:691721. [PMID: 34295861 PMCID: PMC8290911 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2021.691721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 06/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objetive: We sought to determine the association between maintenance intravenous solutions and the presence of hyponatremia in children in pediatric intensive care (PICU). Materials and Methods: An analytical observational study in children hospitalized in the PICU between January 2015 and December 2018. Patients who received maintenance fluids within the first 48 h after admission and who had at least two serum sodium levels drawn during this time were included. Measurements and Main Results: A total of 1,668 patients were admitted to the PICU during the study period, 503 of whom met the inclusion criteria. The median age was 24 months (IQR 8-96) and 50.9% were female. Altogether, 24.1% of the children developed hyponatremia; it was more frequent in those who received hypotonic solutions (63 vs. 37%; OR 1.41 95% CI 0.92, 2.15 p = 0.106), who also had a longer hospital stay (20 vs. 14 days, difference in means 8 days, 95% CI 2.67, 13.3, p = 0.001). Children who received loop diuretics and those who were post-operative had a greater risk of developing hyponatremia if they received hypotonic solutions (aOR 2.1 95% CI 1.41, 3.0, p = 0.000). Those with balanced isotonic solutions had a lower risk of developing hyponatremia (aOR 0.59 95% CI 0.35, 0.99, p = 0.004) and hyperchloremia (aOR 0.51 95% CI 0.34, 0.77, p = 0.000), adjusted for disease severity. A greater risk of death was found in the group with severe hyponatremia <130 mEq/L (aOR 9.75 95% CI 1.64-58.15; p = 0.01). Conclusions: Hyponatremia associated with the use of hypotonic maintenance solutions occurs in one out of four children in intensive care. The use of these solutions is associated with a longer hospital stay, and the main risk groups are post-operative patients and those who receive loop diuretics. Clinical studies are needed to determine which maintenance solutions have the greatest efficacy and safety in critically ill children.

Risks of severe hyponatremia in children receiving hypotonic fluids. Arch Pediatr 2020; 27:474-479. [PMID: 33028494 DOI: 10.1016/j.arcped.2020.08.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2020] [Revised: 06/07/2020] [Accepted: 08/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Intravenous fluids are frequently used in hospitalized children. Hypotonic fluids have been the standard of care in pediatrics for many years. This might be explained by the empiricism of early recommendations favoring fluids with dextrose, but an insufficient amount of sodium. The risk of hyponatremia (<135mmol/L) might be increased by the occurrence of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) in the course of common acute diseases (e.g., bronchiolitis, acute gastroenteritis, encephalitis, meningitis) in children. Severe hyponatremia (<130mmol/L) is often associated with neurologic complications leading to sequelae or even death. Over the last few years, hyponatremia induced by hypotonic fluids has been increasingly reported, and significant progress has been made in the understanding of cerebral edema and osmotic demyelination. Several randomized clinical trials have shown weak but significant evidence that isotonic fluids were superior to hypotonic solutions in preventing hyponatremia. However, clinical practices have not changed much in France, as suggested by the analysis of intravenous fluids ordered from the Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) central pharmacy (PCH) in 2017. Therefore, it would be advisable that national guidelines be released under the French Health Authorities regarding the safe infusion of infants and children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypotonic maintenance i.v. fluids (IVF) pose a higher risk of hyponatremia than isotonic maintenance IVF, but isotonic maintenance IVF can result in excess sodium (Na) load in children. This study analyzed the incidence and risk factors for hyponatremia in children given hypotonic fluids with different Na concentrations and different maintenance rates. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis using medical charts of children aged 3 months-15 years. The children were normonatremic (Na ≥135 mmol/L and <145 mmol/L) before IVF, and given IVF containing 35 mmol/L Na at a 100% maintenance rate (Na 35) or fluids containing 84 mmol/L Na at a 70% maintenance rate (Na 84) for 24-48 h. RESULTS Of a total of 463 children, hyponatremia (Na <135 mmol/L) occurred in 46/275 children (17%) given Na 35, and 16/188 (9%) given Na 84 (P = 0.01). On multivariate logistic regression analysis, Na 35 (OR, 2.19; 95%CI: 1.04-4.62), low clinical dehydration scale (CDS) score before IVF (OR, 0.17; 95%CI: 0.06-0.49), and high body temperature 24-48 h after maintenance IVF (OR, 2.39; 95%CI: 1.79-3.18) were independent risk factors for hyponatremia. CONCLUSIONS Maintenance IVF with low Na concentration at a 100% maintenance rate, low CDS before IVF, and a high body temperature 24-48 h after maintenance IVF are independent risk factors for hyponatremia.

Abstract
Fluid and blood administration are required during surgery in children. The type, amount and tonicity of the intravenous fluids is an important aspect to be considered during anaesthesia management. The physiological differences between adults and children regarding the body water and blood volume needs to be understood. We performed a PUBMED search for English language articles using keywords including 'children', 'intravenous fluid therapy', 'crystalloids', 'colloids', 'fluid homeostasis', 'Starling equation', 'Donnan effect', 'blood loss', 'estimation of blood loss', 'blood management program'. This review discusses the physiological basis, historical background, risk of hyponatraemia, need of glucose in the intravenous fluids as well as the recent concepts in blood transfusion as related to children.

Abstract
The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD) is a common cause of hyponatremia in hospitalized children. SIAD refers to euvolemic hyponatremia due to nonphysiologic stimuli for arginine vasopressin production in the absence of renal or endocrine dysfunction. SIAD can be broadly classified as a result of tumors, pulmonary or central nervous system disorders, medications, or other causes such as infection, inflammation, and the postoperative state. The presence of hypouricemia with an elevated fractional excretion of urate can aid in the diagnosis. Treatment options include fluid restriction, intravenous saline solutions, oral sodium supplements, loop diuretics, oral urea, and vasopressin receptor antagonists (vaptans).

Abstract
Maintenance intravenous fluids (IVFs) are used to provide critical supportive care for children who are acutely ill. IVFs are required if sufficient fluids cannot be provided by using enteral administration for reasons such as gastrointestinal illness, respiratory compromise, neurologic impairment, a perioperative state, or being moribund from an acute or chronic illness. Despite the common use of maintenance IVFs, there is high variability in fluid prescribing practices and a lack of guidelines for fluid composition administration and electrolyte monitoring. The administration of hypotonic IVFs has been the standard in pediatrics. Concerns have been raised that this approach results in a high incidence of hyponatremia and that isotonic IVFs could prevent the development of hyponatremia. Our goal in this guideline is to provide an evidence-based approach for choosing the tonicity of maintenance IVFs in most patients from 28 days to 18 years of age who require maintenance IVFs. This guideline applies to children in surgical (postoperative) and medical acute-care settings, including critical care and the general inpatient ward. Patients with neurosurgical disorders, congenital or acquired cardiac disease, hepatic disease, cancer, renal dysfunction, diabetes insipidus, voluminous watery diarrhea, or severe burns; neonates who are younger than 28 days old or in the NICU; and adolescents older than 18 years old are excluded. We specifically address the tonicity of maintenance IVFs in children.The Key Action Statement of the subcommittee is as follows:1A: The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that patients 28 days to 18 years of age requiring maintenance IVFs should receive isotonic solutions with appropriate potassium chloride and dextrose because they significantly decrease the risk of developing hyponatremia (evidence quality: A; recommendation strength: strong).

Abstract
Hypotonic solutions have been used in pediatrics for maintenance of intravenous (IV) hydration. However, recent randomized control trials and cohort studies have raised significant concerns for association with hospital-acquired hyponatremia (HAH). The study aimed to assess whether the use of hypotonic parenteral solutions (PS) compared with isotonic PS is associated with increased HAH risk in children with common pediatric conditions. Retrospective chart review of 472 patients aged 2 months to 18 years who received either isotonic or hypotonic PS as maintenance fluids. Administration of hypotonic PS was associated with a four-fold increase in risk of developing HAH in the univariate analysis, (unadjusted odds ratio (OR) = 3.99; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.36–11.69, p = 0.01). Hypotonic PS were associated with HAH (p = 0.04) when adjusted for the level of admission serum CO2. There was a mean decrease of serum sodium of 0.53 mEq/L in the hypotonic group compared to the mean increase of 4.88 mEq/L in the isotonic group. These data suggest that hypotonic PS are associated with HAH in children admitted for common pediatric conditions. Isotonic PS should be considered as a safer choice for maintenance fluid hydration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to compare the effect of two different intravenous fluid regimes on the incidence of hyponatremia in children. METHODS Children 1 month to 18 years of age, admitted to pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of a tertiary care medical college hospital were randomized to receive either isotonic fluid (0.9% saline in 5% dextrose) at the standard maintenance rate or hypotonic fluid (0.18% saline in 5% dextrose) at two-thirds of the standard maintenance rate. RESULTS A total of 240 children were randomized (120 isotonic, 120 hypotonic). In all, 16.7% children in hypotonic group developed hyponatremia compared with 7.5% in isotonic group (p = 0.029). Duration of PICU stay was significantly more in Hypotonic group. CONCLUSION We conclude that use of 0.9% saline in 5% dextrose as maintenance fluid helps in reducing the incidence of hospital-acquired hyponatremia and duration of intensive care unit stay among children admitted to PICU.

In children requiring intravenous fluid for hydration maintenance, which out of hypotonic saline and isotonic saline is less likely to result in the development of hyponatraemia? J Paediatr Child Health 2017; 53:309-313.

Abstract
The administration of intravenous fluids remains a common intervention for hospitalised children. Commonly used hypotonic fluids administered at maintenance rates provide 2-4 mmol/kg/day of sodium. Being hypotonic, the development of hyponatraemia remains a risk. The consequences of hyponatraemia are not insignificant, with possibilities of irreversible neurological morbidity and mortality. There is currently no clear consensus on the optimal composition of fluids to be used for intravenous rehydration. A review of the available literature suggests that children who receive isotonic fluid have a lower risk of developing hyponatraemia, regardless of the rate of administration. This result is most applicable in the first 24 h of administration in a wide age group of paediatric patients with varying severities of illness.

Abstract
The topic of intravenous (IV) fluids may be regarded as “reverse nephrology”, because nephrologists usually treat to remove fluids rather than to infuse them. However, because nephrology is deeply rooted in fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance, IV fluids belong in the realm of our specialty. The field of IV fluid therapy is in motion due to the increasing use of balanced crystalloids, partly fueled by the advent of new solutions. This review aims to capture these recent developments by critically evaluating the current evidence base. It will review both indications and complications of IV fluid therapy, including the characteristics of the currently available solutions. It will also cover the use of IV fluids in specific settings such as kidney transplantation and pediatrics. Finally, this review will address the pathogenesis of saline-induced hyperchloremic acidosis, its potential effect on outcomes, and the question if this should lead to a definitive switch to balanced solutions.

Abstract
The goal of maintenance fluid therapy in small animals is to replace normal ongoing losses of water and salts when oral intake is withheld. Hospitalized dogs and cats may have multiple stimuli for antidiuretic hormone release that disrupt normal osmoregulation and predispose to water retention. Severe illness promotes retention of both sodium and water as edema. Commercially available fluids have electrolyte concentrations that are very different from dietary maintenance requirements, and potential consequences include development of hypoosmolality, edema, or both when excesses of water or sodium are administered. Suggestions for tailoring fluid administration toward specific goals are provided.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent literature suggests that hypotonic fluids increase the risk of hospital-acquired hyponatraemia; despite this, hypotonic fluids are widely used. OBJECTIVES To compare the change in serum sodium following the use of hypotonic (0.3% saline, 0.45% saline) or isotonic (0.9% saline) intravenous (IV) maintenance solutions in hospitalised children. STUDY DESIGN This was a randomised controlled trial. Children aged 3 months to 15 years with medical or surgical disorders were randomised to receive one of three maintenance IV fluids: two hypotonic solutions (3.3% dextrose in 0.3% saline or 5% dextrose in 0.45% saline) and one isotonic solution (5% dextrose in 0.9% saline). The primary outcome was serum sodium levels at 8 hours. Secondary outcomes included the incidence of hospital-acquired hyponatraemia, adverse events attributable to IV solutions and length of hospital stay. RESULTS 151 children were assigned randomly to receive 0.3% saline (n = 49), 0.45% saline (n = 50) or 0.9% saline (n = 52). Baseline characteristics were similar for the three groups. At 8 hours, mean (SD) serum sodium was lower in the hypotonic solutions groups [0.3% saline 134.65 (1.9) mmol/L, 0.45% saline 134.90 (2.3) mmol/L than 0.9% saline 137.98 (2.8) mmol/L] (P < 0.0001). The incidence of hospital-acquired hyponatraemia was higher in the hypotonic groups [0.3% saline 10/49 (20.4%), 0.45% saline 11/50 (22%) than 0.9% saline 1/52 (1.9%), P = 0.006). There were no differences in other adverse effects or length of hospital stay between the groups. CONCLUSION Hypotonic IV solutions increase the incidence of hospital-acquired hyponatraemia. Isotonic solutions are a safer alternative.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Focusing on critically ill children with cardiac disease, we will review common causes of fluid perturbations, clinical recognition, and strategies to minimize and treat fluid-related complications. DATA SOURCE MEDLINE and PubMed. CONCLUSIONS Meticulous fluid management is vital in critically ill children with cardiac disease. Fluid therapy is important to maintain adequate blood volume and perfusion pressure in order to support cardiac output, tissue perfusion, and oxygen delivery. However, fluid overload and acute kidney injury are common and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Understanding the etiologies for disturbances in volume status and the pathophysiology surrounding those conditions is crucial for providing optimal care.

Abstract
Background Reportedly, administration of hypotonic fluids containing 30.8–74 mEq/L sodium with 5 % glucose may lead to serious hyponatremia or hyperglycemia. In Japan, hypotonic fluids containing 90 mEq/L sodium with 2.6 % glucose are commonly used. We compared blood electrolyte balance and blood glucose concentration with the use of isotonic (140 mEq/L sodium with 1 % glucose) versus hypotonic fluids in pediatric patients. Methods We studied 77 children aged 5 months to 2 years who underwent oro-maxillofacial surgery and dental treatment under general anesthesia. Patients were categorized according to the fluids infused (hypotonic or isotonic). Blood samples were obtained from the dorsalis pedis artery between the conclusion of anesthesia induction and commencement of surgery. We compared blood sodium, potassium and glucose concentrations in the two fluid groups during the pre-anesthesia and post-anesthesia-induction periods. Results There were no significant differences in pre-anesthesia values between isotonic (n = 35) and hypotonic groups (n = 42). There were significant differences between isotonic and hypotonic groups in post-anesthesia-induction concentrations of sodium (isotonic, 138.7 ± 1.4 mEq/L; hypotonic, 137.5 ± 1.3 mEq/L; p = 0.0003) and glucose (isotonic, 88.0 ± 9.4 mg/dL; hypotonic, 109.9 ± 18.4 mg/dL; p < 0.0001), while potassium concentrations were not significantly different (isotonic, 4.0 ± 0.3 mEq/L; hypotonic, 4.0 ± 0.2 mEq/L; p = 0.6615) between the two groups. Conclusion Isotonic solution administration enables avoidance of serum sodium reduction and serum glucose elevation in infants, and may therefore enhance patient safety in comparison with hypotonic solutions.

Abstract
AIM Using hypotonic intravenous solutions for baseline fluid needs in paediatric patients on a nil by mouth diet may cause serious complications, including hyponatraemia, cerebral oedema and even death. We analysed the evolution of natraemia and explored any adverse effects on children treated with intravenous isotonic fluids. METHODS This was a prospective study of 50 patients consecutively admitted to a general paediatric ward who were treated with isotonic intravenous fluids and on a nil by mouth diet. RESULTS The most prevalent diagnosis was acute gastroenteritis (64%). Hyponatraemia, defined as sodium in plasma of <135 mEq/L, affected 22% of the subjects, but none displayed this during the first postadmission analysis at a median of eight hours. Sodium levels changed by an average of +0.64 mEq/L/hour. The subgroup analysis (0.91 versus 0.56 mEq/L/hour, p = 0.02) and multiple linear regression (R(2) = 0.756) showed a greater increase in sodium when patients had hyponatraemia on admission. Iatrogenic hyponatraemia was not detected, but two patients showed mild hypernatraemia and 35% developed clinically insignificant hyperchloraemia. CONCLUSION Using intravenous isotonic fluids induced a positive trend in natraemia on a general paediatric ward, particularly if patients were hyponatraemic when admitted, and did not induce clinically relevant adverse effects.

Abstract
Introduction: Gastroenteritis (GE) is one of the most common pediatric diseases.
Hyponatremia commonly occurs by administering hypotonic fluids to GE and hospitalized
children. Yet, there is no consensus on the ideal method of treatment.
Objectives: we aimed to assess suitable intravenous (IV) fluid for preventing dysnatremia in
children with GE.
Patients and Methods: This is a double blind randomized clinical trial, which was conducted
on infants of 6 months up to 14 years children with GE. Children were randomly assigned
in 2 different groups. Group A; received 20 cc/kg 0.9% isotonic saline as a bolus, and 0.45%
hypotonic saline as sum of maintenance fluid and volume deficit. Group B was treated with
the same bolus and 0.9% isotonic saline with 20 mEq/L KCl as sum of maintenance fluid
and volume deficit. Blood and urine samples were taken at admission, 4 and 24 hours. Data
were analyzed by independent t test, Mann-Whitney U test, Friedmann test, chi-square and
2-tailed repeated measurements by SPSS version 19.
Results: Baseline hyponatremia and isonatremia were detected in 24 (31.5%) and 51 (67.1%)
patients, respectively. Mean level of sodium at T0, T4 and T 24 mentioned no significant
difference between groups. No hypernatremia was noted by administering isotonic saline.
Results showed that 4 and 24 hours after administration isotonic saline, the mean plasma
sodium differed significantly in baseline hyponatremic patients. However, no significant
difference was noted after 4 and 24 hours in group A.
Conclusion: According to the considerable effect of isotonic saline on hyponatremic patients,
it seems that administering isotonic fluids regardless of the types of dysnatremia can be
recommended to lessen clinicians’ conflicting decision-making in selecting an appropriate
fluid.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this Consensus Statement, we review the etiology and pathophysiology of fluid disturbances in critically ill children with cardiac disease. Clinical tools used to recognize pathologic fluid states are summarized, as are the mechanisms of action of many drugs aimed at optimal fluid management. DATA SOURCES The expertise of the authors and a review of the medical literature were used as data sources. DATA SYNTHESIS The authors synthesized the data in the literature in order to present clinical tools used to recognize pathologic fluid states. For each drug, the physiologic rationale, mechanism of action, and pharmacokinetics are synthesized, and the evidence in the literature to support the therapy is discussed. CONCLUSIONS Fluid management is challenging in critically ill pediatric cardiac patients. A myriad of causes may be contributory, including intrinsic myocardial dysfunction with its associated neuroendocrine response, renal dysfunction with oliguria, and systemic inflammation with resulting endothelial dysfunction. The development of fluid overload has been associated with adverse outcomes, including acute kidney injury, prolonged mechanical ventilation, increased vasoactive support, prolonged hospital length of stay, and mortality. An in-depth understanding of the many factors that influence volume status is necessary to guide optimal management.

Abstract
Intravenous fluids are frequently used in paediatrics but have been associated with significant adverse outcomes. Understanding the composition of fluid prescribed and administering an appropriate rate is essential for safe fluid administration, along with regular monitoring. Recent evidence has shown that using an isotonic fluid with a sodium concentration similar to plasma can decrease the risk of hyponatraemia without an increase in adverse effects. This should lead to a change in guidelines: isotonic fluid should now be used as the primary maintenance intravenous fluid given to the majority of children.

Abstract
Intravenous (IV) fluids are used ubiquitously when children undergo surgical procedures. Until recently, Holliday and Segar's guidelines for calculating maintenance fluids dictated fluid management strategies in postoperative pediatric patients. An increased recognition of hospital-acquired hyponatremia and its associated morbidity has led to a critical re-examination of IV fluid management in this population. Postsurgical patients are at high risk of developing hyponatremia due to the presence of non-osmotic stimuli for antidiuretic hormone release. Recent studies have established that, as they are administered in current practice, hypotonic maintenance fluids are associated with increased rates of hyponatremia. The best available data demonstrate that administration of isotonic fluid reduces hyponatremic risk. In this review, we discuss the collective data available on the subject and offer guidelines for fluid management and therapeutic monitoring.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the risk of hyponatremia between hypotonic and isotonic parenteral maintenance solutions (PMS) administered to children with very severe pneumonia, admitted in the general pediatric ward. METHODS A randomized controlled open label trial was conducted in the pediatrics department of a tertiary care medical college hospital including euvolemic children 2 mo to 5 y of age, fulfilling the WHO clinical definition of very severe pneumonia and requiring PMS. They were randomized to receive either isotonic PMS (0.9% saline in 5% dextrose and potassium chloride 20 meq/L) or hypotonic PMS (0.18% saline in 5% dextrose and potassium chloride 20 meq/L) at standard rates for next 24 h. RESULTS A total of 119 children were randomized (59: Isotonic; 60: Hypototonic PMS). Nine (15%) children in the isotonic PMS group and 29 (48%) in the hypotonic PMS group developed hyponatremia during the study period, (p <0.001) with a relative risk being 3.16 (95% CI 1.64 to 6.09). Mean serum sodium was significantly lower in the hypotonic group compared to the isotonic group (p < 0.001 each at 6, 12 and 24 h). The difference in mean change in serum sodium from baseline was also significant at 12 and 24 h (5.4 and 5.8 meq/L respectively; p < 0.001 each). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the rationality of the use of isotonic PMS in children with respiratory infections, a condition regularly encountered by most pediatricians.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate maintenance intravenous fluid-prescribing practices and the incidence of hospital-acquired hyponatremia in children admitted to a general pediatric ward. METHODS This is a prospective observational study conducted over a 2-month period in children ages 2 months to 5 years who were admitted to a general pediatric ward and who were receiving maintenance intravenous fluids. The composition, rate, and duration of intravenous fluids were chosen at the discretion of the treating physician. Serum biochemistries were obtained at baseline and 24 h following admission. Patients who were at high risk for developing hyponatremia or hypernatremia or had underlying chronic diseases or were receiving medications associated with a disorder in sodium and water homeostasis were excluded. Intravenous fluid composition and the incidence of hyponatremia (sodium <135 mEq/L) were assessed. RESULTS Fifty-six children were enrolled. All received hypotonic fluids; 87.5% received 0.18% sodium chloride (NaCl) and 14.3% received 0.45% NaCl. Forty percent of patients (17/42) with a serum sodium (SNa) less than 140 mEq/L experienced a fall in SNa with 12.5% of all patients (7/56) developing hospital-acquired or aggravated hyponatremia (126-134 mEq/L) with fall in SNa between 2 and 10 mEq/L. CONCLUSION Administration of hypotonic fluids was a prevalent practice in children admitted to a general pediatric ward and is associated with acute hospital-acquired hyponatremia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyponatremia is common among orthopaedic patients and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. We examined the prevalence, timing, causes, and outcomes of hyponatremia in adult hospitalized orthopaedic surgery patients. METHODS We evaluated the medical records of 1067 consecutive orthopaedic surgery patients admitted to a tertiary academic institution. The medical records were reviewed to investigate hyponatremia (serum sodium <135 mEq/L) that (1) had been present on hospital admission or (2) had developed postoperatively. The primary outcomes were the prevalence and timing of, and risk factors for, presentation with or development of hyponatremia. Secondary outcomes were hospital length of stay, total hospital cost, and discharge disposition. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the variables associated with hyponatremia and the effects of hyponatremia on clinical outcomes. RESULTS Of the 1067 patients, seventy-one (7%) had preoperative hyponatremia and 319 (30%) developed hyponatremia postoperatively. Of the latter, 298 (93%) developed hyponatremia within forty-eight hours postoperatively. Compared with patients with normonatremia, those who presented with hyponatremia, on the average, were older (67.2 versus 60.5 years, p < 0.001), had longer hospital stays (4.6 versus 3.3 days, p < 0.001), incurred higher hospital costs ($19,200 versus $17,000, p = 0.006), and were more likely to be discharged to an extended-care facility (odds ratio [OR] = 2.87, p < 0.001). Developing hyponatremia postoperatively resulted, on average, in a longer hospital stay (3.7 versus 3.3 days, p = 0.002) and greater hospital cost ($18,800 versus $17,000, p < 0.001). Age (OR = 1.13 per decade, p = 0.012), spine surgery (OR = 2.76 versus knee, p < 0.001), hip surgery (OR = 1.76 versus knee, p < 0.001), and the amount of lactated Ringer solution used (OR = 1.16, p = 0.002) increased the risk of developing hyponatremia. CONCLUSIONS Hyponatremia in orthopaedic patients is associated with longer, costlier hospitalizations. The factors that significantly increased the risk of developing postoperative hyponatremia were an older age, spine fusion, hip arthroplasty, and the amount of lactated Ringer solution used.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare two electrolyte maintenance solutions in the postoperative period in children undergoing appendectomy, in relation to the occurrence of hyponatremia and water retention. METHODS A randomized clinical study involving 50 pediatric patients undergoing appendectomy, who were randomized to receive 2,000mL/m(2)/day of isotonic (Na 150 mEq/L or 0.9% NaCl) or hypotonic (Na 30 mEq/L NaCl or 0.18%) solution. Electrolytes, glucose, urea, and creatinine were measured at baseline, 24h, and 48h after surgery. Volume infused, diuresis, weight, and water balance were analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-four patients had initial hyponatremia; in this group, 13 received hypotonic solution. Seventeen patients remained hyponatremic 48h after surgery, of whom ten had received hypotonic solution. In both groups, sodium levels increased at 24h (137.4±2.2 and 137.0±2.7mmol/L), with no significant difference between them (p=0.593). Sodium levels 48h after surgery were 136.6±2.7 and 136.2±2.3mmol/L in isotonic and hypotonic groups, respectively, with no significant difference. The infused volume and urine output did not differ between groups during the study. The water balance was higher in the period before surgery in patients who received hypotonic solution (p=0.021). CONCLUSIONS In the post-appendectomy period, the use of hypotonic solution (30 mEq/L, 0.18%) did not increase the risk of hyponatremia when compared to isotonic saline. The use of isotonic solution (150 mEq/L, 0.9%) did not favor hypernatremia in these patients. Children who received hypotonic solution showed higher cumulative fluid balance in the preoperative period.
