GCS Is 6T Still Vent Support Is Also Not High
Question: GCS is 6T still
Vent support is also not high
Renal: k+ is 5.1 , metabolic acidosis with concomitant resp acidosis
Urine output 800ml/24hrs
NaHCO3 is not available in the country and contraindicated for him since his Na is 160 and on hypernatraemic management.
Anyway,I will evaluate him and see what we can do more
What I am saying is Adrenaline requirement is coming down (from 0.5 to 0.2 mcg/kg/min)
Any advice?

Hello
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
Actually patient needs 8 hourly serum electrolyte monitoring.
Urine out put is low.
Target should be atleast 1500 ml per day.
Other than that, continue previous medication.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards
