Fig. 3From: Fluid therapy in mechanically ventilated critically ill children: the sodium, chloride and water burden of fluid creepCorrelation between total sodium intake and cumulative 48-h fluid balance. Fluid balance was calculated as total fluid intake (parenteral and enteral) – urinary output. The regression line (y = 168 + 3.3 x; r2 = 0.49, p < 0.0001) and 95% confidence band are reportedBack to article page
