Final answer:
For the infant weighing 8050 grams, the daily fluid requirement is 805ml. The 10-year-old child weighing 33.6kg requires an IV fluid rate of 74ml/hour to meet her daily needs.
Step-by-step explanation:
The daily fluid requirement for an infant weighing 8050 grams can be calculated using the general guideline of 100ml/kg for the first 10kg of weight. Therefore, for an 8050-gram infant, the calculation would be 8050gm/1000 (to convert grams to kilograms) = 8.05kg. Then, multiply 8.05kg by 100ml/kg which equals 805ml per day.
For the 10-year-old child who is NPO and weighs 33.6kg, daily fluid requirements are calculated differently. According to established pediatric guidelines, the requirements are 100ml/kg for the first 10kg of weight, 50ml for each kg between 10kg to 20kg, and 20ml for each kg above 20kg. This means:
- First 10kg = 1000ml (10kg x 100ml)
- Next 10kg = 500ml (10kg x 50ml)
- Remaining 13.6kg = 272ml (13.6kg x 20ml)
The total daily requirement is 1000ml + 500ml + 272ml = 1772ml. To find the hourly rate, divide the total daily requirement by 24 hours: 1772ml / 24h = 73.83ml/hour, which we round to 74ml/hour.
