What type of care do your fresh cabg patient require that is routine. I am interested in seeing how much FLUID other hospitals give their patients related to starting of IV gtts. I think we fluid overload a lot of our patients post-op then have to give lasix/bumex pod #1. Typically Our patients receive 2 to 3 liters( sometimes more) in the first 6-8 hrs postop and I feel this causes an increased # of pulmonary complications. What do your facilities do? :rotfl:
