From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Parkland formula is a burn formula used to estimate the amount of replacement fluid required for the first 24 hours in a burn patient so as to ensure they remain hemodynamically stable.
The Parkland formula for calculating fluid needs for burn victims in the first 24 hours is as follows: Fluid requirement (mL) = (4 mL of crystalloid) Ã (% TBSA burned) Ã body weight (kg). Thus, a man who weighs 70 kg and has a 30% TBSA burn would require 4 Ã 30 Ã 70 = 8400 mL in the first 24 hours.
