IV FLUID PROTOCOL

 A joint collaboration from Dr. Jonny Wilkinson and Dr. David Lyness for International Fluid Academy.

Here we present Dr. Wilkinson & Dr Abdul Gomaa's excellent work on establishing a FLUID PROTOCOL for patients, establishing key processes within the prescription and considerations of IV fluids in the hospital.

Both of us are attending Internation Fluid Academy in Belgium this year (#IFAD2017) as Faculty. This is a high-end academic conference in Intensive Care Medicine that will have a heavy social media presence - focusing on fluid management, haemodynamics, POCUS and ICU management of the patient in fluid excess.

As with ALL FOAMed material,  this protocol is for information only and we cannot take any responsibility for its use outside our spheres of practice. Nevertheless, it is enough to give you plenty of food for thought in creating your own flow-sheets in your own hospitals.
