Neonatal Fluids, Electrolytes, and Nutrition

Patient's Weight: grams kilograms

Input:
IVF:	DW
TPN:	DW with Protein = % g/kg/d and Lipid = g/kg/d
Enteral:	EBM EBM + HMF 20 kcal/oz 24 kcal/oz or kcal/oz formula
Actual		Goals
IVF =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day	= kcal/kg/day
TPN =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day	= kcal/kg/day
Lipids =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day	= kcal/kg/day
Enteral =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day	= kcal/kg/day
Other =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day
Total =	cc/day	= cc/kg/day	= kcal/kg/day
Calories: Protein kcal/kg/d + Fat kcal/kg/d + Carbo kcal/kg/d
GIR =	mg/kg/min
Output:
Urine =	cc/day	= cc/kg/hr

Equations:
Goal (cc/kg/day) =	Actual (cc/day) weight
Urine Output (cc/kg/hr) =	Actual (cc/day) weight x 24
GIR (mg/kg/min) =	(% Dextrose) x TPN/IVF Goal (cc/kg/d) 144
Protein calories (kcal/kg/day) =	TPN Goal (cc/kg/d) x (%Protein) x 4 100
Carbo calories (kcal/kg/day) =	TPN Goal (cc/kg/d) x (% Dextrose) x 3.4 100
Lipid calories (kcal/kg/day) =	Lipid Goal (g/kg/d) x 2
