High-Yield Explanation
Ans. (c) Parkland formula used to calculate fluid quantity: 6mL/kg body weight per % TBSA burns Ref: Schwartz 10th edition, Page 230* While resuscitation mean arterial pressure must be maintained at 60mmHg to ensure optimal end organ perfusion.* Urine output should be 30mL/hour and 1-1.5mL/kg/hour in children.* First 24 hours do not give colloids as there is maximum fluid shift from IC space to EC space and there will be edema.* Parkland formula =4mL/kg Body weight x TBSA of Burns half of the amount given in 8 hours and remaining in 16 hours.
