Which of the following factors are associated with increased
fluid requirements in the management of patients with burn injury?
a) Inhalation injuries
Factors associated with increased fluid requirements include inhalation
injuries, delayed resuscitation, scald burn injuries, high-voltage
electrical injuries, hyperglycemia, alcohol intoxification and chronic
diuretic therapy.
b) Chemical burn injuries
Chemical burn injuries are not associated with increased fluid
requirements.
c) Low-voltage electrical injuries
Low-voltage electrical injuries are not associated with increased fluid
requirements.
d) Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is not associated with increased fluid requirements.
