Neonates and pediatric overview

 Many pediatric organ systems are immature / vulnerable
 Neonates have higher metabolic demands
 Neonates have IMMATURE MYOCARDIUM (matures 3-12 months)
 Neonates utilize GLUCOSE OXIDATION
 Immature myocardium prone to “stretch injury”
 Utilize alpha-stat and pH-stat blood gas management

total volume that flows through a tube
Flow = (change in pressure x pi x radius^4) / (length of tube x viscosity of fluid x 8)
radius is the only thing that changes

how does turbulent flow effect the critical velocity

Study These Flashcards

Turbulence decreases flow at any given perfusion pressure
turbulence increases the perfusion pressure required for a given flow
there is a “critical reynolds number” that when it is exceeded, there is a difference between turbulent flow and laminar flow

Choosing arterial tubing size base on max blood flow and how much prime it contains

3/16”
¼”

Study These Flashcards

1/8 => 700 mls/min => 3 mls/ft
3/16 => 1100 mls/min => 7 mls/ft
1/4 => 2000 mls/min => 10 mls/ft
3/8 => 6500 mls/min => 20 mls/ft

Resistance in the venous reservoir

Study These Flashcards

We will not be dealing with a wide open venous line
Resistance in your reservoir can be a factor in venous return
◦ Since your venous line goes into the sock, a certain amount of volume is “delayed” there
◦ This is called “holdup volume”
◦ As your viscosity goes up - so may your holdup volume

Pediatric Cannula Selection

Study These Flashcards

Cannulation can be achieved in various vessels depending on the anomaly
Look for high flow – low pressure drops
Thin walled reinforced and thin wall metal cannula give good flow with lower pressure drops
It’s all about the ID (inner diameter) (for us) and the OD (outer diameter) (for surgeons)

Pediatric Cannula Selection: arterial

Study These Flashcards

 Aim: utilize the smallest cannula w/ the highest flow rate
 Do NOT exceed pressure drop > 100 mmHg
 Critical velocity is reached when laminar flow becomes turbulent (Reynolds #)
 Higher pressures = higher sheer stress = hemolysis = bad

Pediatric Cannula Selection: venous

Study These Flashcards

 Aim: drain the patient with the smallest cannulas
 Be aware if the cannulation is bicaval or single atrial cannula
 Pressure drop is in the -30 to -40 range (pressure-flow curve)
 Vacuum Assist Venous Drainage (VAVD) may help but at a cost (micro-emboli may be associated with VAVD)

Determining arterial cannula

 Determine max flow:  Cannulation may be aortic / femoral / neck  Pressure drop should not exceed 100 mmHg  Anticipate larger flow needs when warming  Anticipate viscosity changes

Main ascending aortic cannulae

DLP wire reinforced

main femoral arterial cannulae

Biomedicus arterial cannulae

Determining venous cannula

 Determine max flow  Cannulation utilizes Bicaval or Single Atrial  Pressure drop -30 to -40 mmHg  ( MEASURE IT - its gravity!)  Anticipate larger flow needs when warming  Anticipate viscosity changes

when choosing a cannula, it's all about what

- resitance

priming with 25% albumin

- Start with prime then take out the filter and put in your albumin. displace all of the prime and all that is left in there is pretty much albumin  Aids passification of tubing  Elevates C.O.P. and serum osmolarity  Good osmotic “pull” from tissues - make sure tubing isn't coated with X-coating which calls for priming with crystalloid first

Cefazolin (Kefzol, Ancef) dose

 25 mg/kg (max dose = 1 g)

Pump prime may contain how much solumedrol (methylprednixolone)

30 mg/kg up to 500mg

bicarbonate equation

0.3(kg wt)(BE) = NaHCO3 mEq

Mannitol calculation

0.25 g/kg in prime

CaCl

 If priming with blood, a good rule of thumb is to use 1 mg CaCl per 1 mL of blood product

for neonates/infants < 5kg

- 100 ml PRBC’s are added to the prime to avoid a prolonged period a asanguineous perfusion.

calculate the PDHCT

- practice

hemochron vs hepcon (ACT)

- hemochron gives you abnormally high values compared to the hepcon - could result in having clotting problems in the circuit

Platelet works

 Assesses platelet function and compares functional and nonfunctional platelets by percentage (%) - does not tell you a platelet count
