• Symptomatic management continued• Monitoring continued.• Fluid increased with rise of PCV• No clinical deterioration. Had small right sided
pleural effusion. No specific management done.• Patient improved i.e.. General condition, appetite.
Fever settled.• Patient was discharged home once the plt count
was >50,000 & Afebrile for 48 hrs

• Doing a CBC from 3rd day is better.• Often only symptomatic management is
adequate. • If there is no active bleeding, there is no place
for platelet transfusion even if the platelet count is low.
• No place for steroids or FFP.

• IV calcium gluconate given 6 hrly.
• Amount of fluid reduced to 75ml/hr and then 50ml/hr and then stopped.
• PCV remained stable
• Blood pressure, pulse, CRFT and UOP maintained.
• No further interventions were necessary.
![Page 12: 3. Case Histories](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051116/56814ecd550346895dbc6aa4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Treat both impending shock (prolonged CRFT, narrow
pulse pressure, severe postural drop of BP, hypotension)
Full blown shock (BP un-recordable)
AGRESSIVELY and PPOMPTLY.
With crystalloid bolus and gradual reduction of fluid.
If PCV is low, give blood.
May need dextran later.

• PCV increased to 52• Pulse pressure narrowed to 20 with a postural drop
of 30 in SBP. • Dextran 500 ml given over one hour with 10 mg
of frusemide • Pulse pressure improved.• Good UOP.• Patient recovered without any further intervention

• Fluid overload can occur un-intentionally.• Patients should be told how much and what to
drink• Dextran is useful in fluid overloaded patients• Frusemide in small doses is very effective

• Preferred colloid in DHF• Mechanism of Action - Produces plasma volume
expansion by virtue of its highly colloidal starch structure, similar to albumin
• Given as a bolus in DHF– 250 ml over 30 mins or 500 ml over 1 hr. Not as a slow infusion.
• Recommended maximum – 1500 ml for 24 hrs.• Should not be used in a dehydrated patients who
present with shock and high HCT until the hydration is corrected with crystalloids.
