Fluid, Electrolyte, Metabolic and Respiratory Acid-Base Management
Right from the basics of fluid electrolyte abnormalities, fluid therapy,
and analysis of pulmonary physiology to the analysis of respiratory
acid-base, interpretation of ABG, maintenance of H+ ion balance and much
more, there is often the need for a comprehensive approach. This book
is an attempt to look at some such aforementioned situations and seeks
to offer a better understanding and approach through specific case
studies and examples.
This educative book discusses electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities
encountered in intensive care. The purpose of this book is to guide the
postgraduates in various disciplines of medicine, practicing medical
professionals, nephrologists and intensivists in the management of
critically ill patients.
In effect, the book highlights:
• Comprehensive approach to fluid therapy including calculation
of maintenance fluid, assessment of fluid status, composition and
distribution of commonly used parenteral fluids.
• Simplified approach to analysis of metabolic and respiratory
acid-base abnormalities. The text covers discussion on Stewart ion
approach and ventilator management and up-to-date advances in the field.
• Problem-based clinical approach to electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities using patient scenarios.
