Advantages and disadvantages of colloid and crystalloid fluids.

چکیده

Plasma volume expanders--crystalloid, colloid, or a mixture of both--are used as fluid replacement in patients who have postoperative hypovoloaemia. Despite numerous clinical trials there is little evidence that either classification of plasma volume expander is more beneficial to mortality than the other.

RCC Thompson. "Physiological" 0. 9% Saline in the Field Resuscitation opf Trauma

The debate over which fluid is most suitable for resuscitation of hypovolaemia has been going on for more than five decades. The choice of colloid or crystalloid varies; largely depending on personal preference, clinical experience, availability, and cost (1). Although the evidence for, and understanding of, different fluids has increased, there is an urgent need for appropriately sized, prospe...

Colloid versus crystalloids in shock

The debate about whether to use crystalloids or colloids for the resuscitation of hypovolaemia is not as important as the challenge of continually maintaining a normal intravascular volume. In this article we will discuss hypovolaemia and its consequences, the physiology of body fluids and finally the choice of the most appropriate fluid, touching on the colloid-crystalloid controversy.

Why crystalloids will do the job in the operating room.

The current trend in anaesthesia is to choose crystalloid over colloid fluids for volume replacement in the operating room. Outcome-oriented studies and kinetic analyses have recently provided more insight into how crystalloid infusions should be managed. These fluids have a much better short-term effect on the plasma volume than previously believed. Their efficiency (i.e. the plasma volume exp...

Pros and cons of tetrastarch solution for critically ill patients

Proper fluid management is crucial for the management of critically ill patients. However, there is a continuing debate about the choice of the fluid, i.e., crystalloid vs. colloid. Colloid solution is theoretically advantageous to the crystalloid because of larger volume effect and less interstitial fluid accumulation, and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is most frequently used for perioperative set...

Effects of acute plasma volume expansion on renal perfusion, filtration, and oxygenation after cardiac surgery: a randomized study on crystalloid vs colloid.

BACKGROUND In the present randomized study, we evaluated the differential effects of a colloid and a crystalloid fluid on renal oxygen delivery (RD(O2)), glomerular filtration (GFR), renal oxygen consumption ((RV(O2))), and the renal oxygen supply-demand relationship (i.e., renal oxygenation) after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS Thirty patients with normal preoperative r...
