Welcome to all of you coming from the #WeNurses 'Prevention of Dehydration' Discussion on 21/4/16
#WeNurses have put together a great summary here. Hypovolaemia/dehydration can lead to serious problems across all patient groups - community and hospital. Dehydration can lead to acute kidney injury, high sodium levels, brain swelling, seizures, hypotension and can be fatal. Below are some resources I have gathered for us to have a look at to help our discussions this evening. Click on the links below to view the content: Nursing Times Article on Recognition & Prevention Nursing Times - Why is Dehydration Still A Problem? Prevention of Dehydration - Mayo Clinic Dehydration Clinical Presentation - How do they look? Help Elderly People Avoid Dehydration Identify & Prevent in Elderly People in Long Term Care Rehydration Project NHS Choices - Preventing Dehydration Introduction to IV fluids for medical students IV Fluids Tutorial World Kidney Day - ABCD AKI Checklist Assessing Dehydration & Shock in Children Paediatric Dehydration Assessment If you have any clinical questions about IV fluid management - you can tweet to me @Gas_Craic
