A pediatric patientweighing 23.5 kilograms has 14% total body surface area (TBSA) affected by partial- and full-thickness burns. Calculate initial fluid resuscitation needs using the Parkland formula (4 mL x kg x %TBSA). At what rate is milliliters per hour (mL/hr) should the nurse set the IV pump to deliver half of the total fluid volume in the first 8 hours after the burn injury? Round your answer to the nearest tenth if applicable and enter only digits.

Calculate the total fluid volume needed for the first 24 hours using the Parkland formula. Formula: 4 mL×weight (kg)×TBSA (%) Parameters: 4 mL×23.5 kg×14% Total 24-hour Volume (mL) = 4 × 23.5 × 14 =1316 mL. Calculate the volume to be administered in the first 8 hours. The order is to administer half of the total fluid volume in the first 8 hours. Volume for first 8 hours (mL) =1316 mL / 2 =658 mL. Calculate the infusion rate in milliliters per hour (mL/hr). 658 mL must be infused over 8 hours. Rate (mL/hr) = Volume for first 8 hours (mL) / Time (hr) =658 mL/8 hr =82.25 mL/hr.
