how long should iv fluids continue to be given to ensure stable hydration and kidney function after kindney function stops due to rhabdomylosis?
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. In rhabdomyolysis myoglobin is released from the affected muscle leading to tubular obstruction in kidney. Initial aggressive volume loading followed by mannitol-alkaline diuresis of up to 8 liters per day is required till the myoglobin is no longer detected it urine and serum creatinine comes to normal. I hope I have answered your query. Best wishes for your and your families health.
