High-dose vitamin C infusion reduces fluid requirements in the resuscitation of burn-injured sheep.
Fluid resuscitation to maintain adequate tissue perfusion while reducing edema in the severely burned patient remains a challenge. Recent studies suggest that reactive oxygen species generated by thermal injury are involved in edema formation associated with burn. The present study tested the hypothesis that adding a free radical scavenger to the resuscitation fluid would reduce total fluid req...
متن کاملInitial assessment and fluid resuscitation of burn patients.
For the physician or surgeon practicing outside the confines of a burn center, initial assessment and fluid resuscitation will encompass most of his or her exposure to patients with severe burns. The importance of this phase of care should not be underestimated. This article provides a review of how to perform initial resuscitation of patients with significant burns and/or inhalation injury, wh...
متن کاملOxalate Nephropathy After Continuous Infusion of High-Dose Vitamin C as an Adjunct to Burn Resuscitation
Fluid resuscitation is the foundation of management in burn patients and is the topic of considerable research. One adjunct in burn resuscitation is continuous, high-dose vitamin C (ascorbic acid) infusion, which may reduce fluid requirements and thus decrease the risk for over resuscitation. Research in preclinical studies and clinical trials has shown continuous infusions of high-dose vitamin...
متن کاملBurn resuscitation index: a simple method for calculating fluid resuscitation in the burn patient.
The Parkland formula is the standard for calculating the initial intravenous fluid rate for resuscutation after thermal injury. However, it is cumbersome when used by those with modest burn training. We propose an easier method to calculate fluid requirements that can be initiated by first-line providers. Burn size is estimated by using the Burn Size Score (BSS), which is then crossreferenced w...
متن کاملEffect of Receiving Intravenous Vitamin C on Dyslipidemia in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
Background: Dyslipidemia is one of the major causes of the production and progression of atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients. Vitamin C is able to improve dyslipidemia by reducing an oxidative stress. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of vitamin C supplementation on dyslipidemia in hemodialysis patients. Methods: In a randomized, double-blind clinical trial, 160 patient...
