D5 half-normal saline is correct - I think BOS
Subject: D5 half-normal saline is correct - I think BOS

it's one bag of dextrose and half-normal saline - 1 bag.  They always say D5 half-normal saline.  In 30 years, I never heard them say *D5 in half-normal saline*.....I have heard D5 and half-normal saline though.


BOS, while I respect it and use it all the time, is not the end-all, be-all on many subjects and there are errors AND inconsistencies throughout the BOS.

Subject: IV fluids -- sm

How would you write the following:


1.  "placed on D5 and a 1/2-normal saline at maintenance and a quarter."


2.  and then later she says:  "IV fluids, D5 and a 1/2 with 20 of KCl per liter"


These fractions confuse me.  I assume the 1/2 goes with the normal saline in the first instance and maybe the "normal saline" is implied in the second instance, but how do I express these fractions?  Did I do the "quarter" right in the first instance?
