Explanation:
If you are correcting only dehydration (as when giving a bolus in the ER), use 0.9% saline. If you are correcting dehydration and providing maintenance fluids at the same time, add both volumes and use D5 0.45% saline. If you are providing fluid only, may use D5 0.18% saline or D5 0.33% saline.
