Correction of Sodium DeficitCorrection of Sodium Deficit
Example: A 60 kg woman with a plasma sodium Example: A 60 kg woman with a plasma sodium concentration of 120mEq/L:concentration of 120mEq/L:
Sodium deficit = TBW x (130 – [Na+]p)Sodium deficit = TBW x (130 – [Na+]p)
Sodium deficit = 0.5 x 60 x (130-120) = 300mEqSodium deficit = 0.5 x 60 x (130-120) = 300mEq
3% NaCl contains 513 mEq sodium/L3% NaCl contains 513 mEq sodium/L
Volume of 3% NaCl needed = 300/513 = 585 mLVolume of 3% NaCl needed = 300/513 = 585 mL
At 0.5 mEq/L/hr a correction of 10 mEq should be done At 0.5 mEq/L/hr a correction of 10 mEq should be done over 20 hoursover 20 hours
So, 585 mL/20 hours = 29 mL/hour of 3% NaClSo, 585 mL/20 hours = 29 mL/hour of 3% NaCl
