Abstract
It is suggested on the basis of our study that the fluid amount for delayed rapid fluid resuscitation in patients with burn shock should be calculated as follows: (1) in the first 24 h, the amount of fluid (ml) is equal to TBSA (%) × body weight (kg) × 2.6. The ratio between colloid and electrolytes is 1:1, each of the two fluid types is 1.3 ml per (%) TBSA per kg body weight. The volume of water required is 2000 ml. Half of the total amount of fluid is proposed should be infused in the first 2 h after hospitalization under strict monitoring of hemodynamic indices. (2) In the second 24 h, the amount of fluid (ml) is equal to TBSA (%) × body weight (kg) × 1. The ratio between colloid and electrolytes 1:1, each of the two is 0.5 ml. Water volume is 2000 ml.
