background: complications of ventolin as the most common drug used for bronchiolitis are widely known. the present study was conducted to determine the efficacy of hypertonic saline 3%, compared with ventolin, for treatment of acute bronchiolitis in children.   methods : this double-blinded clinical trial study was conducted in hajar hospital, shahrekord, iran, from 2011 to 2012. a total of 70 ...

hypertonic saline solution can absorb part of the intracellular fluid volume into the extracellular space. the effects of this solution on the cardiovascular system are increased coronary flow and increased left ventricular contraction, without sympathetic system activation. this study was designed to assess the effects of hypertonic saline solution in open heart surgery and to compare it with ...

Introduction: In the recent years, effect of hypertonic solution in resuscitation of shock has been shown by clinical and laboratory studies. On the other hand ATP-MgCl2 is used for better tissue perfusion and cardiac output in shock. The aim of this study is evaluation of ATP-MgCl2 with hypertonic solution in resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock. Materials and Methods: In this experimental stud...

an animal model was designed to study the effect of large volume hypertonic solutions (hts) for re suscitation following a hypovolemic shock. resuscitation in hypovolemic animals was performed by infusion of 15 ml/kg of normal saline (group i), 5% sodium bicarbonate (nahco3) (group ii), 5% sodium chloride (naci) and 7.5 % nahco3 1:1 vn (group iii), 5% nac1 (group iv), and 5% nacl and 5% serum a...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is no evidence that the epinephrine-3% hypertonic saline combination is more effective than 3% hypertonic saline alone for treating infants hospitalized with acute bronchiolitis. We evaluated the efficacy of nebulized epinephrine in 3% hypertonic saline. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in 208 infants hos...

background: hydatid cysts are encountered frequently in regions endemic with livestock. the basic treatment for a hydatid cyst is total surgical removal of the cyst and its inner contents. hypertonic nacl or diluted betadine solution are used as germicidal agents for most hydatid surgeries. however, the germicidal efficacy of the ankaferd blood stopper® (abs) has not been investigated. thus, we...

BACKGROUND Mucolytic agents, such as nebulized hypertonic saline, may improve airway clearance and shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation, but prospective blinded studies in children undergoing mechanical ventilation are lacking. METHODS Children <18 y old who had been intubated for <12 h and had an expected duration of mechanical ventilation of >48 additional h were prophylactically ...

The effect of hyperosmotic solution of NaCl, urea and mannitol on Bufo viridis red blood cells were studied. The percentage of water content in B. viridis red blood cells decreased significantly in NaCl and mannitol hypertonic solutions compared to urea hypertonic solution. The urea concentration found in red blood cells in a urea hypertonic solution was significantly higher than in red blood c...

Background. This study, a randomized controlled trial, aims to demonstrate a clinically significant improvement in subacute and chronic otitis media with effusion through the administration of hyaluronic acid associated with hypertonic solution compared with the administration of hypertonic solution alone. The setting was an outpatient clinic of 20 primary care pediatrician offices affiliated w...
