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
Acute electrolyte and acid-base imbalance is experienced by many children following kidney transplant. This is partly because doctors give very large volumes of artificial fluids to keep the new kidney working. When severe, fluid imbalance can lead to seizures, cerebral edema and death. In this pragmatic, open-label, randomized controlled trial, we randomly assigned (1:1) pediatric kidney transplant recipients to Plasma-Lyte-148 or standard of care perioperative intravenous fluids (predominantly 0.45% sodium chloride and 0.9% sodium chloride solutions). We then compared clinically significant electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities in the first 72 hours post-transplant. The primary outcome, acute hyponatremia, was experienced by 53% of 68 participants in the Plasma-Lyte-148 group and 58% of 69 participants in the standard fluids group (odds ratio 0·77 (0·34 - 1·75)). Five of 16 secondary outcomes differed with Plasma-Lyte-148: hypernatremia was significantly more frequent (odds ratio 3·5 (1·1 - 10·8)), significantly fewer changes to fluid prescriptions were made (rate ratio 0·52 (0·40-0·67)), and significantly fewer participants experienced hyperchloremia (odds ratio 0·17 (0·07 - 0·40)), acidosis (odds ratio 0·09 (0·04 - 0·22)) and hypomagnesemia (odds ratio 0·21 (0·08 - 0·50)). No other secondary outcomes differed between groups. Serious adverse events were reported in 9% of participants randomized to Plasma-Lyte-148 and 7% of participants randomized to standard fluids. Thus, perioperative Plasma-Lyte-148 did not change the proportion of children who experienced acute hyponatremia compared to standard fluids. However fewer fluid prescription changes were made with Plasma-Lyte-148, while hyperchloremia and acidosis were less common.

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
Perioperative hyponatremia, due to non-osmotic release of the antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin, is a serious electrolyte disorder observed in connection with many types of surgery. Since blood loss during surgery contributes to the pathogenesis of hyponatremia, we explored the effect of bleeding on plasma sodium using a controlled hypotensive hemorrhage pig model. After 30-min baseline period, hemorrhage was induced by aspiration of blood during 30 min at mean arterial pressure <50 mmHg. Thereafter, the animals were resuscitated with retransfused blood and a near-isotonic balanced crystalloid solution and monitored for 180 min. Electrolyte and water balances, cardiovascular response, renal hemodynamics, and markers of volume regulation and osmoregulation were investigated. All pigs (n = 10) developed hyponatremia. All animals retained hypotonic fluid, and none could excrete net-free water. Urinary excretion of aquaporin 2, a surrogate marker of collecting duct responsiveness to antidiuretic hormone, was significantly reduced at the end of the study, whereas lysine vasopressin, i.e., the pig antidiuretic hormone remained high. In this animal model, hyponatremia developed due to net positive fluid balance and generation of electrolyte-free water by the kidneys. A decreased urinary aquaporin 2 excretion may indicate an escape from antidiuresis.

Postoperative free water administration is associated with dysnatremia after congenital heart disease surgery in infants. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 2023; 67:730-737.

Abstract
Dysnatremia after congenital heart disease (CHD) surgery is common. European guidelines on intraoperative fluid therapy in children recommend isotonic solutions to avoid hyponatremia, but prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass and administration of high sodium-containing solutions (i.e., blood products and sodium bicarbonate) are associated with postoperative hypernatremia. The aim of the study was to describe fluid composition prior to and during the development of postoperative dysnatremia. A retrospective observational, single-center study including infants undergoing CHD surgery. Demographics and clinical characteristics were registered. Highest and lowest plasma sodium values were recorded and associations with perioperative fluid administration, blood products, crystalloids, and colloids were explored in relation to three perioperative periods. Postoperative dysnatremia occurred in nearly 50% of infants within 48 h after surgery. Hypernatremia was mainly associated with administration of blood products (median [IQR]: 50.5 [28.4-95.5] vs. 34.5 [18.5-61.1] mL/kg; p = 0.001), and lower free water load (1.6 [1.1-2.2] mL/kg/h; p = 0.01). Hyponatremia was associated with a higher free water load (2.3 [1.7-3.3] vs. 1.8 [1.4-2.5] mL/kg/h; p = 0.001) and positive fluid balance. On postoperative day 1, hyponatremia was associated with higher volumes of free water (2.0 [1.5-2.8] vs. 1.3 [1.1-1.8] mL/kg/h; p < 0.001) and human albumin, despite a larger diuresis and more negative daily fluid balance. Postoperative hyponatremia occurred in 30% of infants despite restrictive volumes of hypotonic maintenance fluid, whereas hypernatremia was mainly associated with blood product transfusion. Individualized fluid therapy, with continuous reassessment to reduce the occurrence of postoperative dysnatremia is mandatory in pediatric cardiac surgery. Prospective studies to evaluate fluid therapy in pediatric cardiac surgery patients are warranted.

Abstract
Background Serum osmolality can be measured (Omeas) or calculated (Ocal). Many formulas for Ocal have been already published, but data regarding the most accurate equation in small babies is not available. Thus, we aim to compare Omeas and Ocal obtained by different formulas in newborns and small children. Methods The study included 280 serum samples taken from children, from the first day of life to 2 years (mean age 8.2 ± 7.6 months) treated in the University Children's Hospital in Krakow. The serum osmolality was measured by osmometer and calculated by 8 common formulas. Results The mean value of Omeas (2 8 5 .8 ± 5 .1 mOsm/kgH2O) was significantly different as compared to the mean values of Ocal (p< 0.01) for all formulas, except Ocal obtained by the formula: 1.86*(N a + K) +1.15*Glu + Urea + 14. According to Bland-Altman analysis, this formula showed the best performance for estimating osmolality. In children under 3 months of life Passing-Bablok regression indicated both systematic and proportional error for results obtained by each formula compared to the measured values. Conclusions To calculate osmolarity in children aged between 3 months and 2 years old the following equation: 1 .86*(N a + K) + 1.1 5*G lu+ U rea+ 14 might be used, whereas serum osmolality in children up to 3 month of life should be measured.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intravenous maintenance fluid therapy (IV-MFT) prescribing in acute and critically ill children is very variable among pediatric health care professionals. In order to provide up to date IV-MFT guidelines, the European Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care (ESPNIC) undertook a systematic review to answer the following five main questions about IV-MFT: (i) the indications for use (ii) the role of isotonic fluid (iii) the role of balanced solutions (iv) IV fluid composition (calcium, magnesium, potassium, glucose and micronutrients) and v) and the optimal amount of fluid. METHODS A multidisciplinary expert group within ESPNIC conducted this systematic review using the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) grading method. Five databases were searched for studies that answered these questions, in acute and critically children (from 37 weeks gestational age to 18 years), published until November 2020. The quality of evidence and risk of bias were assessed, and meta-analyses were undertaken when appropriate. A series of recommendations was derived and voted on by the expert group to achieve consensus through two voting rounds. RESULTS 56 papers met the inclusion criteria, and 16 recommendations were produced. Outcome reporting was inconsistent among studies. Recommendations generated were based on a heterogeneous level of evidence, but consensus within the expert group was high. "Strong consensus" was reached for 11/16 (69%) and "consensus" for 5/16 (31%) of the recommendations. CONCLUSIONS Key recommendations are to use isotonic balanced solutions providing glucose to restrict IV-MFT infusion volumes in most hospitalized children and to regularly monitor plasma electrolyte levels, serum glucose and fluid balance.

Korean Society of Nephrology 2022 recommendations on controversial issues in diagnosis and management of hyponatremia. Korean J Intern Med 2022; 37:1120-1137. [PMID: 36245341 PMCID: PMC9666265 DOI: 10.3904/kjim.2022.174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
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.

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.

Intravenous maintenance fluid therapy practice in the pediatric acute and critical care settings: a European and Middle Eastern survey. Eur J Pediatr 2022; 181:3163-3172. [PMID: 35503578 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-022-04467-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Revised: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The ideal fluid for intravenous maintenance fluid therapy (IV-MFT) in acutely and critically ill children is controversial, and evidence-based clinical practice guidelines are lacking and current prescribing practices remain unknown. We aimed to describe the current practices in prescribing IV-MFT in the context of acute and critically ill children with regard to the amount, tonicity, composition, use of balanced fluids, and prescribing strategies in various clinical contexts. A cross-sectional electronic 27-item survey was emailed in April-May 2021 to pediatric critical care physicians across European and Middle East countries. The survey instrument was developed by an expert multi-professional panel within the European Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care (ESPNIC). A total of 154 respondents from 35 European and Middle East countries participated (response rate 64%). Respondents were physicians in charge of acute or critically ill children. All respondents indicated they routinely use a predefined formula to prescribe the amount of IV-MFT and considered fluid balance monitoring very important in the management of acute and critically ill children. The use of balanced solution was preferred if there were altered serum sodium and chloride levels or metabolic acidosis. Just under half (42%, 65/153) of respondents believed balanced solutions should always be used. Respondents considered the use of isotonic IV solutions as important for acute and critically ill children. In terms of the indication and the composition of IV-MFT prescribed, responses were heterogeneous among centers. Almost 70% (107/154) respondents believed there was a gap between current practice and what they considered ideal IV-MFT due to a lack of guidelines and inadequate training of healthcare professionals. Conclusions: Our study showed considerable variability in clinical prescribing practice of IV-MFT in acute pediatric settings across Europe and the Middle East. There is an urgent need to develop evidence-based guidelines for IV-MFT prescription in acute and critically ill children. What is Known: • The administration of maintenance intravenous fluid therapy is a standard of care for a lot of hospitalized children • Maintenance intravenous fluid therapy prescriptions are often based on Holliday and Segar's historical guidelines even if this practice has been associated with several complications. What is New: • This study provided information on the prescribing practice regarding fluid restriction, fluid tonicity, and balance. • This study showed considerable variability in clinical prescribing practice of intravenous maintenance fluid therapy across Europe and the Middle East.

Abstract
The proper use of intravenous fluids has likely been responsible for saving more lives than any other group of substances. Proper use includes prescribing an appropriate electrolyte and carbohydrate solution, at a calculated rate or volume, for the right child, at the right time. Forming intravenous fluid plans for hospitalized children requires an understanding of water and electrolyte physiology in healthy children and how different pathology deviates from the norm. This review highlights fluid management in several disease types, including liver disease, diabetic ketoacidosis, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone, diabetes insipidus, kidney disease, and intestinal failure as well as in those with nonphysiologic fluid losses. For each disease, the review discusses specific considerations, evaluations, and management strategies to consider when customizing intravenous fluid plans. Ultimately, all hospitalized children should receive an individualized fluid plan with recurrent evaluations and fluid modifications to provide optimal care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute electrolyte and acid-base imbalance is experienced by many children following kidney transplantation. When severe, this can lead to complications including seizures, cerebral oedema and death. Relatively large volumes of intravenous fluid are administered to children perioperatively in order to establish perfusion to the donor kidney, the majority of which are from living and deceased adult donors. Hypotonic intravenous fluid is commonly used in the post-transplant period due to clinicians' concerns about the sodium, chloride and potassium content of isotonic alternatives when administered in large volumes.Plasma-Lyte 148 is an isotonic, balanced intravenous fluid that contains sodium, chloride, potassium and magnesium with concentrations equivalent to those of plasma. There is a physiological basis to expect that Plasma-Lyte 148 will reduce the incidence of clinically significant electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities in children following kidney transplantation compared with current practice.The aim of the Plasma-Lyte Usage and Assessment of Kidney Transplant Outcomes in Children (PLUTO) trial was to determine whether the incidence of clinically significantly abnormal plasma electrolyte levels in paediatric kidney transplant recipients will be different with the use of Plasma-Lyte 148 compared with intravenous fluid currently administered. METHODS AND ANALYSIS PLUTO is a pragmatic, open-label, randomised controlled trial comparing Plasma-Lyte 148 to current care in paediatric kidney transplant recipients, conducted in nine UK paediatric kidney transplant centres.A total of 144 children receiving kidney transplants will be randomised to receive either Plasma-Lyte 148 (the intervention) intraoperatively and postoperatively, or current fluid. Apart from intravenous fluid composition, all participants will receive standard clinical transplant care.The primary outcome measure is acute hyponatraemia in the first 72 hours post-transplant, defined as laboratory plasma sodium concentration of <135 mmol/L. Secondary outcomes include symptoms of acute hyponatraemia, other electrolyte and acid-base imbalances and transplant kidney function.The primary outcome will be analysed using a logistic regression model adjusting for donor type (living vs deceased donor), patient weight (<20 kg vs ≥20 kg pretransplant) and transplant centre as a random effect. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial received Health Research Authority approval on 20 January 2020. Findings will be presented to academic groups via national and international conferences and peer-reviewed journals. The patient and public involvement group will play an important part in disseminating the study findings to the public domain. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS 2019-003025-22 and 16586164.

Abstract
The use of sodium chloride (NaCl) supplementation in children being prescribed diuretics is controversial due to concerns that supplementation could lead to fluid retention. This is a single-center retrospective study in which fluid balance and diuretic dosing was examined in children prescribed enteral NaCl supplements for hyponatremia while receiving loop diuretics. The aim of this study was to determine whether significant fluid retention occurred with the addition of NaCl. Fifty-five patients with 68 events were studied. The median age was 5.2 months, and 82% were hospitalized for cardiac disease. Daily fluid balance the seven days prior to NaCl supplementation was lower than the seven days after, with measurement of: median 17 mL/kg/day (7–26) vs. 22 mL/kg/day (13–35) (p = 0.0003). There was no change in patient weight after supplementation (p = 0.63). There was no difference in the median loop diuretic dose before and after supplementation, with the diuretic dose in furosemide equivalents of 3.2 mL/kg/day (2.3–4.4) vs. 3.2 mL/kg/day (2.2–4.7) (p = 0.50). There was no difference in the proportion of patients receiving thiazide diuretics after supplementation (56% before vs. 50% after (p = 0.10)). NaCl supplementation in children receiving loop diuretics increased calculated fluid balance, but weight was unchanged, and this was not associated with an increase in diuretic needs, suggesting clinicians did not consider the increase in fluid balance to be clinically significant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have demonstrated that non-osmotic antidiuretic hormone activity contributes to the development of hyponatremia in children with common febrile diseases. However, the relationship between hyponatremia and body temperature has remained unclear. We therefore examined this relationship in children with common diseases. METHODS In this retrospective case study based on a chart review, 1,973 children presenting with acute illnesses at Hirakata City Hospital between November 2008 and October 2009, and for whom blood test data were available, were enrolled. The median age of this cohort was 2.7 years and the mean serum sodium concentration was 136.4 mEq/L; 454 patients showed hyponatremia (<135 mEq/L). The patients were classified into four groups on the basis of body temperature, <37 °C, 37 °C (37.0-37.9 °C), 38 °C (38.0-38.9 °C) and ≥39 °C, and their serum sodium concentration was compared. RESULTS The mean sodium level was significantly lower in febrile (135.9 mEq/L) than in non-febrile (138.5 mEq/L) patients. The mean serum sodium levels in the four temperature groups were, in ascending order, 138.5 mEq/L (95% CI, 138.3-138.8 mEq/L), 137.3 mEq/L (137.1-137.5 mEq/L), 136.1 mEq/L (135.8-136.3 mEq/L) and 134.6 mEq/L (134.4-134.9 mEq/L), respectively. The serum sodium level in each individual temperature range became significantly lower as body temperature increased (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS There is a clear inverse correlation between serum sodium level and body temperature in children with common febrile diseases, and fever may play an important role in this relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypotonic fluids have been associated with hospital-acquired hyponatremia. The incidence of life-threatening severe hyponatremia associated with hypotonic fluids has not been evaluated. METHODS This was a population-based cohort study of 46,518 acutely ill children 15 years of age or under who visited the pediatric emergency department (ED) at Oulu University Hospital, Finland, between 2007 and 2017. We retrieved all electrolyte measurements from the comprehensive electronic laboratory system and reviewed medical records for all patients with severe hyponatremia. RESULTS The overall occurrence of severe hyponatremia (serum sodium < 125 mmol/L) was found in 27 out of 46,518 acutely ill children (0.06%, 95% confidence interval 0.04-0.08%). After admission, severe hyponatremia developed in seven of 6,984 children receiving moderately hypotonic fluid therapy (0.1%, 95% confidence interval 0.04-0.2%), usually within 8 h of admission. All children who developed severe hyponatremia during hospitalization were severely ill. CONCLUSION In this register-based cohort study of children presenting to the ED, severe hyponatremia developed in one of 998 acutely ill children receiving moderately hypotonic fluid therapy.

Research priorities in pediatric parenteral nutrition: a consensus and perspective from ESPGHAN/ESPEN/ESPR/CSPEN. Pediatr Res 2022; 92:61-70. [PMID: 34475525 PMCID: PMC9411056 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-021-01670-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2020] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Parenteral nutrition is used to treat children that cannot be fully fed by the enteral route. While the revised ESPGHAN/ESPEN/ESPR/CSPEN pediatric parenteral nutrition guidelines provide clear guidance on the use of parenteral nutrition in neonates, infants, and children based on current available evidence, they have helped to crystallize areas where research is lacking or more studies are needed in order to refine recommendations. This paper collates and discusses the research gaps identified by the authors of each section of the guidelines and considers each nutrient or group of nutrients in turn, together with aspects around delivery and organization. The 99 research priorities identified were then ranked in order of importance by clinicians and researchers working in the field using a survey methodology. The highest ranked priority was the need to understand the relationship between total energy intake, rapid catch-up growth, later metabolic function, and neurocognitive outcomes. Research into the optimal intakes of macronutrients needed in order to achieve optimal outcomes also featured prominently. Identifying research priorities in PN should enable research to be focussed on addressing key issues. Multicentre trials, better definition of exposure and outcome variables, and long-term metabolic and developmental follow-up will be key to achieving this. IMPACT: The recent ESPGHAN/ESPEN/ESPR/CSPEN guidelines for pediatric parenteral nutrition provided updated guidance for providing parenteral nutrition to infants and children, including recommendations for practice. However, in several areas there was a lack of evidence to guide practice, or research questions that remained unanswered. This paper summarizes the key priorities for research in pediatric parenteral nutrition, and ranks them in order of importance according to expert opinion.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Given that hypotonic maintenance intravenous fluids (IVF) may cause hospital-acquired harm, in November 2018, the American Academy of Pediatrics released a clinical practice guideline recommending the use of isotonic IVF for patients aged 28 days to 18 years without contraindications. No recommendations were made regarding laboratory monitoring; however, unnecessary laboratory tests may contribute to health care waste and harm patients. OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of a quality improvement intervention bundle on (1) increasing the mean proportion of hours per hospital day with exclusive isotonic IVF use to at least 80% and (2) decreasing the mean proportion of hospital days with laboratory tests obtained. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This stepped-wedge, cluster randomized clinical trial (Standardization of Fluids in Inpatient Settings [SOFI]) was sponsored by a national quality improvement collaborative and was conducted across 106 US pediatric hospitals. The SOFI intervention period was from September 2019 to March 2020. INTERVENTIONS Hospital sites were exposed to educational materials, a clinical algorithm and order set for IVF use, electronic medical record interventions to reduce laboratory testing, and "harms of overtesting" cards. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcomes were mean proportion of hours per hospital day receiving exclusive isotonic IVF and mean proportion of hospital days with laboratory test values obtained. Secondary measures included total IVF duration per hospital day, daily patient weight measurement while receiving IVF, serum sodium testing, and adverse events. Baseline data were collected for 2 months; intervention period data, 7 months. Outcomes were analyzed using linear mixed-effects regression models. RESULTS A total of 106 hospitals were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 intervention start dates (wedges), and 100 hospitals (94%) completed the study. In total, 5215 hospitalizations were reviewed before the intervention, and 6724 hospitalizations were reviewed after the intervention. Prior to interventions, the mean (SD) proportion of hours per day with exclusive isotonic IVF use was 88.5% (31.7%). Interventions led to an absolute increase of 5.4% (95% CI, 3.9%-6.9%) above baseline in exclusive isotonic IVF use but did not change the proportion of hospital days during which a laboratory test value was obtained (estimated difference, 0.1%; 95% CI, -1.5% to 1.7%; P = .90), IVF use duration (estimated difference, -1.2%; 95% CI, -2.9% to 0.4%), serum sodium testing, or adverse events. There was an absolute increase of 4.4% (95% CI, 2.6%-6.2%) in the mean proportion of hospital days with a patient weight measurement while receiving IVF. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this stepped-wedge, cluster randomized clinical trial, an intervention bundle significantly improved the use of isotonic maintenance IVF without a concomitant increase in adverse events or electrolyte testing. Further work is required to deimplement laboratory testing. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03924674.

Effect of sodium administration on fluid balance and sodium balance in health and the perioperative setting. Extended summary with additional insights from the MIHMoSA and TOPMAST studies. J Crit Care 2021; 67:157-165.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to provide an extended analysis of the physiological handling of of the sodium burden induced by maintenance fluids. MATERIALS AND METHODS We revisited two studies that demonstrated, in healthy volunteers and in surgical patients, that maintenance fluids with 154 mmol/L of sodium lead to a more positive fluid balance than a regimen containing 54 mmol/L. We report different unpublished data on the renal handling of the imposed sodium burdens with specific attention to the resulting fluid and sodium balances. RESULTS The kidneys adapt to the sodium-rich fluids not only by altering sodium excretion, but also by retaining extra free water by concentrating urine. Realigning urinary sodium excretion with an increased administration takes around one day in health and much longer in the clinical setting. This difference may be explained by the presence of hypovolemia-induced aldosterone secretion in the latter group. Non-osmotic storage of sodium limits an unrestrained fluid retention even when very high amounts of sodium are administered but fluid accumulation will inevitably be further prolonged. CONCLUSIONS Sodium administration induced by sodium-rich maintenance fluids leads, especially in the clinical setting, to prolonged fluid retention when compared with a regimen that resembles a healthy dietary sodium intake, even when kidney function is normal.

Abstract
Appropriate fluid management is vital for adequate tissue perfusion and balancing the internal milieu especially in perioperative settings and critically ill children. Pediatric population is heterogeneous so one formula may not suffice and hence both the quantitative and qualitative perspective of fluid management should be based on physiology and pathology of the child along with their perioperative needs. In perioperative setup, the fluid is administered to meet fluid deficits (fasting, and other daily based losses), blood losses and third space losses. Anesthetists have always followed pediatric maintenance fluid calculations based on Holiday and Segar formula; based on studies conducted on healthy children more than 70 years ago. Recently, there has been a lot of debate about this concept, especially as there are serious concerns regarding the development of complications like hyponatremia and hyperglycemia, both of which can result in neurological damage or even mortality in a sick child. This review is an attempt to provide a historical perspective and current evidence-based approach to peri-operative pediatric fluid management. We performed a PUBMED search for articles using keywords including ‘children’, ‘intravenous fluid therapy’, ‘crystalloids’, ‘colloids’, ‘fluid homeostasis’, ‘blood loss’, ‘estimation of blood loss’, ‘blood loss management’, ‘perioperative fluid ‘ to get our source articles.

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
Intravenous (IV) fluid therapy is integral to the care of patients in hospitals but involves complex decisions. Errors in fluid prescribing are common, leading to significant harm due to inappropriate fluid type, rate or volume. British national guidelines have been developed to improve prescribing, but adherence has been generally poor. The Scottish Government has set up a National IV Fluid Improvement Programme to implement national guidelines throughout Scotland. This article reviews the need for such guidance and discusses how the Scottish National IV Fluid Improvement Programme hopes to achieve its aims across Scotland. This may provide an improvement framework for fluid prescribing in other regions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maintenance intravenous fluids (IVFs) are commonly used in the hospital setting. Hypotonic IVFs are commonly used in pediatrics despite concerns about high incidence of hyponatremia. We aimed to increase isotonic maintenance IVF use in children admitted from the emergency department (ED) from a baseline of 20% in 2018 to >80% by December 2019. METHODS We included patients aged 28 days to 18 years receiving maintenance IVFs (rate >10 mL/hour) at the time of admission. Patients with active chronic medical problems were excluded. Interventions included institutional discussions on isotonic IVF based on literature review, education on isotonic IVF use per the American Academy of Pediatrics guideline (isotonic IVF use with appropriate potassium chloride and dextrose), electronic medical record changes to encourage isotonic IVF use, and group practice review with individual physician audit and feedback. Balancing measures were the frequency of serum electrolyte checks within 24 hours of ED admission and occurrence of hypernatremia. Data were analyzed by using statistical process control charts. RESULTS Isotonic maintenance IVF use improved, with special cause observed twice; the 80% goal was met and sustained. No difference was noted in serum electrolyte checks within 24 hours of admission (P > .05). There was no increase in occurrence of hypernatremia among patients who received isotonic IVF compared with those who received hypotonic IVF (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS The application of improvement methods resulted in improved isotonic IVF use in ED patients admitted to the inpatient setting. Institutional readiness for change at the time of the American Academy of Pediatrics guideline release and hardwiring of preferred fluids via electronic medical record changes were critical to success.

Fluid-induced harm in the hospital: look beyond volume and start considering sodium. From physiology towards recommendations for daily practice in hospitalized adults. Ann Intensive Care 2021; 11:79. [PMID: 33999276 PMCID: PMC8128950 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-021-00851-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 04/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Iatrogenic fluid overload is a potential side effect of intravenous fluid therapy in the hospital. Little attention has been paid to sodium administration as a separate cause of harm. With this narrative review, we aim to substantiate the hypothesis that a considerable amount of fluid-induced harm is caused not only by fluid volume, but also by the sodium that is administered to hospitalized patients. METHODS We show how a regular dietary sodium intake is easily surpassed by the substantial amounts of sodium that are administered during typical hospital stays. The most significant sodium burdens are caused by isotonic maintenance fluid therapy and by fluid creep, defined as the large volume unintentionally administered to patients in the form of dissolved medication. In a section on physiology, we elaborate on the limited renal handling of an acute sodium load. We demonstrate how the subsequent retention of water is an energy-demanding, catabolic process and how free water is needed to excrete large burdens of sodium. We quantify the effect size of sodium-induced fluid retention and discuss its potential clinical impact. Finally, we propose preventive measures, discuss the benefits and risks of low-sodium maintenance fluid therapy, and explore options for reducing the amount of sodium caused by fluid creep. CONCLUSION The sodium burdens caused by isotonic maintenance fluids and fluid creep are responsible for an additional and avoidable derailment of fluid balance, with presumed clinical consequences. Moreover, the handling of sodium overload is characterized by increased catabolism. Easy and effective measures for reducing sodium load and fluid retention include choosing a hypotonic rather than isotonic maintenance fluid strategy (or avoiding these fluids when enough free water is provided through other sources) and dissolving as many medications as possible in glucose 5%.

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
Intravenous fluid therapy has long been the mainstay of treatment of kidney disease, including acute kidney injury and uremic crisis associated with chronic kidney disease. Careful management of fluid dose is critical, as animals with kidney disease may have marked derangements in their ability to regulate fluid homeostasis and acid-base status. Understanding of the physiology of renal fluid handling is necessary, along with repeated attention to parameters of fluid status, electrolytes, and acid-base balance, to achieve optimal hydration status and avoid further damage or decrease in function from dehydration or overhydration.

Abstract
The original studies demonstrating the efficacy of oral glucose-electrolytes solutions in reducing or eliminating the need for intravenous therapy to correct dehydration caused by acute watery diarrheas (AWD) were focused chiefly on cholera patients. Later research adapted the oral therapy (ORT) methodology for treatment of non-cholera AWDs including for pediatric patients. These adaptations included the 2:1 regimen using 2 parts of the original WHO oral rehydration solution (ORS) formulation followed by 1 part additional plain water, and a “low sodium” packet formulation with similar average electrolyte and glucose concentrations when dissolved in the recommended volume of water. The programmatic desire for a single ORS packet formulation has led to controversy over use of the “low sodium” formulations to treat cholera patients. This is the subject of the current review, with the conclusion that use of the low-sodium ORS to treat cholera patients leads to negative sodium balance, leading to hyponatremia and, in severe cases, particularly in pediatric cholera, to seizures and other complications of sodium depletion. Therefore it is recommended that two separate ORS packet formulations be used, one for cholera therapy and the other for non-cholera pediatric AWD.

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.

Association Between Hyponatremia and Maintenance Intravenous Solutions in Critically Ill Children: A Retrospective Observational Study. Front Pediatr 2021; 9:691721.

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.

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
Intravenous fluid administration should be considered as any other pharmacological prescription. There are three main indications: resuscitation, replacement, and maintenance. Moreover, the impact of fluid administration as drug diluent or to preserve catheter patency, i.e., fluid creep, should also be considered. As for antibiotics, intravenous fluid administration should follow the four Ds: drug, dosing, duration, de-escalation. Among crystalloids, balanced solutions limit acid–base alterations and chloride load and should be preferred, as this likely prevents renal dysfunction. Among colloids, albumin, the only available natural colloid, may have beneficial effects. The last decade has seen growing interest in the potential harms related to fluid overloading. In the perioperative setting, appropriate fluid management that maintains adequate organ perfusion while limiting fluid administration should represent the standard of care. Protocols including a restrictive continuous fluid administration alongside bolus administration to achieve hemodynamic targets have been proposed. A similar approach should be considered also for critically ill patients, in whom increased endothelial permeability makes this strategy more relevant. Active de-escalation protocols may be necessary in a later phase. The R.O.S.E. conceptual model (Resuscitation, Optimization, Stabilization, Evacuation) summarizes accurately a dynamic approach to fluid therapy, maximizing benefits and minimizing harms. Even in specific categories of critically ill patients, i.e., with trauma or burns, fluid therapy should be carefully applied, considering the importance of their specific aims; maintaining peripheral oxygen delivery, while avoiding the consequences of fluid overload.

Abstract
Objective: Hypotonic fluids have been traditionally used in newborns. National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence-2015 (NICE) fluid therapy guideline recommends the use of isotonic fluids as maintenance fluid therapy in term newborns. However, there is no clear evidence supporting this recommendation. This study aims to compare isotonic (5% dextrose in 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl)) and hypotonic (5% dextrose in 0.45% NaCl) parenteral fluid therapies in hospitalized term newborns with regard to changes in plasma Na (pNa) and complications related with fluid therapy.Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study performed in a tertiary university hospital NICU between January 2016 and April 2018. Term newborns who were initially isonatremic or mildly dysnatremic (pNa <130 or >155 meq/L) and receiving fluid therapy for maintenance or replacement therapy after 48th postnatal hours were eligible for the study. Infants having specific diagnoses requiring extraordinary fluids were excluded. The primary outcome evaluated was the change in mean plasma Na (ΔpNa meq/L/h) at 24 h or at the end of intravenous (i.v.) fluid therapy. Secondary outcomes evaluated were the risk of hyponatremia, hypernatremia, and adverse events attributable to fluid administration.Results: Among the 108 included newborns, 57 received hypotonic fluid (5% dextrose solution in 0.45% NaCl) and the remaining received isotonic fluid (5% dextrose solution in 0.9% NaCl) therapy. The hypotonic fluid group showed a greater ΔpNa compared to the isotonic group (0.48 ± 0.28 vs. 0.27 ± 0.21 meq/L/h, p = .001). The risk of experiencing unsafe plasma Na decrease in the hypotonic fluid group (ΔpNa >0.5 meq/L/h) was higher than the isotonic fluid group (odd ratio: 8.46; 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.3-30.06). Six mildly hypernatremic babies between 48 and 72 h of postnatal age showed insufficient Na reduction despite the appropriate amount of fluid. No significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of other outcomes.Conclusion: The results of this study suggested that as maintenance or replacement fluid therapy in the newborn, hypotonic fluids, even 5% dextrose in 0.45% NaCl, can lead to unsafe plasma Na decreases in term newborns, while isotonic fluids are safe when started after the first few days of life. Although the results parallel NICE guidelines, before making recommendations regarding the removal of hypotonic fluids entirely from clinical practice in term newborns following the renal adaptation period; larger randomized controlled studies involving a wide range of babies are needed.

Abstract
Background: To prevent the risk of iatrogenic hyponatraemia in hospitalised children, isotonic fluid has been recommended as maintenance intravenous fluid (IVF). There are few studies which compare half normal saline with normal saline as maintenance IVF in general paediatric wards.Aim: To compare the safety and efficacy of half normal saline with normal saline as maintenance IVF in general paediatric wards.Methods: Children aged between 3 months and 5 years with an anticipated requirement for IVF for 24 h were randomised to receive either half normal saline (0.45% saline in 5% dextrose) or normal saline (0.9% saline in 5% dextrose). The primary objective was to compare the incidence of hyponatraemia (serum sodium <135 mmol/L with a decrease from baseline of at least 4 mmol/L) at 24 h in children receiving half normal saline with those receiving normal saline. Secondary objectives were to compare the incidence of moderate (sodium <130 mmol/L), severe (sodium <125 mmol/L) and symptomatic hyponatraemia, change in serum sodium level from baseline and the incidence of hypernatraemia.Results: A total of 168 children were randomised to receive either normal saline (n = 84) or half normal saline (n = 84). More than two-thirds of the children were suffering from respiratory diseases (pneumonia and bronchiolitis) and diseases of the nervous system (meningoencephalitis, febrile seizures and epilepsy). The incidence of hyponatraemia at 12 h in children receiving half normal saline was similar to that in those receiving normal saline (6 vs 4.8%; Relative risk (RR) 1.2; 95% CI 0.3.0-4.8; p = 0.73). Although the incidence of hyponatraemia at 24 h in children receiving half normal saline was higher than in those receiving normal saline, the difference was not statistically significant (14.3 vs 6%; RR 2.6; 95% CI 0.9-7.8; p = 0.07). One child in the isotonic group and one in the hypotonic group developed moderate and severe hyponatraemia, respectively. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypernatraemia between two groups (RR 0.7; 95% CI 0.16-3.3).Conclusion: Half-normal saline as maintenance IVF does not result in a significantly increased risk of hyponatraemia in general paediatric ward patients under 5 years of age.

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
PURPOSE To determine the effects of the sodium content of maintenance fluid therapy on cumulative fluid balance and electrolyte disorders. METHODS We performed a randomized controlled trial of adults undergoing major thoracic surgery, randomly assigned (1:1) to receive maintenance fluids containing 154 mmol/L (Na154) or 54 mmol/L (Na54) of sodium from the start of surgery until their discharge from the ICU, the occurrence of a serious adverse event or the third postoperative day at the latest. Investigators, caregivers and patients were blinded to the treatment. Primary outcome was cumulative fluid balance. Electrolyte disturbances were assessed as secondary endpoints, different adverse events and physiological markers as safety and exploratory endpoints. FINDINGS We randomly assigned 70 patients; primary outcome data were available for 33 and 34 patients in the Na54 and Na154 treatment arms, respectively. Estimated cumulative fluid balance at 72 h was 1369 mL (95% CI 601-2137) more positive in the Na154 arm (p < 0.001), despite comparable non-study fluid sources. Hyponatremia < 135 mmol/L was encountered in four patients (11.8%) under Na54 compared to none under Na154 (p = 0.04), but there was no significantly more hyponatremia < 130 mmol/L (1 versus 0; p = 0.31). There was more hyperchloremia > 109 mmol/L under Na154 (24/35 patients, 68.6%) than under Na54 (4/34 patients, 11.8%) (p < 0.001). The treating clinicians discontinued the study due to clinical or radiographic fluid overload in six patients receiving Na154 compared to one patient under Na54 (excess risk 14.2%; 95% CI - 0.2-30.4%, p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In adult surgical patients, sodium-rich maintenance solutions were associated with a more positive cumulative fluid balance and hyperchloremia; hypotonic fluids were associated with mild and asymptomatic hyponatremia.

Abstract
Background Recent literature and guidelines support routine use of isotonic intravenous (IV) fluids for maintenance therapy in hospitalized infants and children. Current prescribing practices are unknown. Objective To elicit paediatric residents' choice of maintenance IV fluids, particularly with regard to tonicity, in a variety of clinical scenarios and patient ages. We hypothesized that residents would choose isotonic fluids in most cases, but there would be substantially more variability in fluid choice in the neonatal age group. Methods An Internet-based survey was e-mailed to trainees in the 17 paediatric residency programs across Canada, via the Canadian Paediatric Program Directors. The survey instrument included questions related to training, followed by a series of questions eliciting choice of IV fluid in a variety of clinical situations. Results A total of 147 survey responses were submitted (22% response rate). Isotonic solutions were selected by >75% across all clinical scenarios involving infants and children. Very hypotonic fluids were seldom chosen. There was more variability in fluid choice in neonates, with evidence of significant differences in fluid tonicity based on senior versus junior resident status and geographical location. Conclusions Results imply a predominance of isotonic fluid use in infants and children, suggesting that clinical practice has changed in response to risk of hyponatremia with hypotonic IV fluids. As hypothesized, there was more variability with respect to choice of maintenance fluids in neonates. This likely reflects a paucity of guidance in an age group with unique physiologic factors affecting fluid and electrolyte status.

Abstract
Hyponatremia is one of the most common electrolyte disorders in hospitalized children. The underlying mechanisms are poorly understood and potentially multifactorial, making management difficult, particularly in neonates. This retrospective study aimed to determine the incidence and etiologies of hyponatremia in hospitalized children under the age of 100 days, in our pediatric tertiary care hospital over a 1-year period. The etiology of hyponatremia was determined by reviewing the data noted in each patient's medical reports. Neonatal hyponatremia had a prevalence of 4.3% (86/2012 patients) and was mostly hospital-acquired (74/86 patients). Fifty-nine patients (68.9%) were preterm neonates. The etiology was iatrogenic in 26 cases (30.2%). In other cases, hyponatremia was due to transient (23 patients, 26.7%) or genetic abnormalities of the renal mineralocorticoid pathway (3 patients, 3.4%), SIADH (12 patients, 14%), digestive disease (3 patients, 3.5%), acute renal failure (3 patients, 3.5%), or heart failure (1 patient, 1.2%).Conclusion: Our findings confirm that hyponatremia is a frequent electrolyte disorder in neonates. Various mechanisms underlie this condition, most of which could be prevented by optimized management. The prevalence of genetic hypoaldosteronism and pseudohypoaldosteronism was higher than expected. We provide a simple diagram to help physicians identify the mechanisms underlying neonatal hyponatremia. What is Known: • In neonates, hyponatremia may be multifactorial, making it difficult to treat. • Newborns display partial resistance to aldosterone, and preterms have a defect in aldosterone secretion. What is New: • Four percent of hospitalized neonates had hyponatremia, 86% hospital-acquired. Hyponatremia was due to a transient or constitutional defect of the mineralocorticoid pathway in 26/86 patients (30%) which is higher than expected. • We propose a tree diagram for improving the management of hyponatremia in neonates.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The composition and type of intravenous fluids during paediatric anaesthesia have been subjects of debates for decades. Errors in perioperative fluid management in children may lead to serious complications and a negative outcome. Therefore, in this review, historical and recent developments and recommendations for perioperative fluid management in children are presented, based on physiology and focused on safety and efficacy. RECENT FINDINGS Optimized fasting times and liberal clear fluid intake until 1 h improve patient comfort and metabolic and haemodynamic condition after induction of anaesthesia. Physiologically composed balanced isotonic electrolyte solutions are safer than hypotonic electrolyte solutions or saline 0.9% to protect young children against the risks of hyponatraemia and hyperchloraemic acidosis. For intraoperative maintenance infusion, addition of 1-2% glucose is sufficient to avoid hypoglycaemia, lipolysis or hyperglycaemia. Modified fluid gelatine or hydroxyethyl starch in balanced electrolyte solution can safely be used to quickly normalize blood volume in case of perioperative circulatory instability and blood loss. SUMMARY Physiologically composed balanced isotonic electrolyte solutions are beneficial for maintaining homeostasis, shifting the status more towards the normal range in patients with preexisting imbalances and have a wide margin of safety in case of accidental hyperinfusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous hypotonic fluid administered in children is associated with an increased risk of developing hyponatremia. This finding has been reported from temperate countries where climate is relatively cold. But whether this risk also occurs in tropical countries has not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between environmental temperature and serum sodium in non-critically ill children. METHODS A retrospective study. RESULTS A total of 1061 hospitalized children were enrolled. Incidences of hyponatremia were not different between patients who received isotonic and hypotonic fluids (29% vs. 31%). Subgroup analysis showed a trend of higher incidence of hyponatremia in patients who received hypotonic fluid than isotonic fluid only in patients admitted to the air-conditioned wards (29% vs. 21%, p = 0.08). CONCLUSION Children admitted to the air-conditioned wards who received hypotonic fluid seemed to carry a higher risk of developing hyponatremia than those admitted to the non-air-conditioned ward.
