Summary

Traditional protocols for intravenous fluid administration in children who have undergone a major abdominal or thoracic operation are based on a landmark paper published in 1957 by Holliday and Segar. The basic tenets include: (1) Continuous intravenous fluid administration; (2) Total fluid volume based on the "4:2:1" rule; (3) Use of hypotonic electrolyte solutions, most commonly 0.45% sodium chloride (NaCl) + 20 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L) potassium chloride (KCl); and (4) Inclusion of 5% dextrose to increase the osmolarity of the infusate and to help prevent ketosis and acidemia.
