Question

How to calculate gir 6 in newborn

Answer 1

Answer:

Glucose Infusion Rate (mg/kg/min) = Fluid Rate (ml/kg/day) ´ 0.07 (e.g., if the baby is getting 100 ml/kg/day of 10% D, GIR = 100 ´ 0.07 – 7.0 mg/kg/min). Add 2 ml/kg of 25% D to each 8 hour drip (e.g., add 2 ml/kg of 25% D to each 8 h drip in the example above to increase the GIR from 7.0 mg/kg/min to 8.0 mg/kg/min)....
