Answer 1

Yes you have to take the fluids you use to push in his total requirement. Through the central line you can give Dextrose up to 20 percent if required, but rarely you will need to do that..................I think ONE Should not and cannot learn Neonatology by writing emails like this - it is better you attend a workshop run by either IAP or NNF.
