conclusions the results of this meta-analysis show that colloid fluids can increase the successful resuscitation rate compared to crystalloid fluids especially in traumatic and hypovolemic patients.some of the colloids like albumin and dextran have a positive effect on reducing the mortality rate but others like hetastarch (hes) increase the mortality rate compared to normal saline (ns). result...

The relationship between left ventricular filling pressure and plasma colloid osmotic pressure to pulmonary edema was examined in a group of 37 patients, the majority of whom were hypovolemic. Sixteen patients developed pulmonary edema during fluid infusion. In the 21 patients who did not develop pulmonary edema, the left ventricular filling pressure was slightly elevated but the colloid osmoti...

introduction: solubility of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) is an important characteristic that affects other properties such as microleakage and biocompatibility. distilled water (dw) has previously been used for solubility tests. this experimental study compared the solubility of mta in dw, synthetic tissue fluid (stf) and new simulated plasma (sp). methods and materials: in this study, 36 s...

Plasmapheresis, which is defined as the removal of plasma, can be either "adjusted plasma" or “exchange of plasma”. The former is defined as selective withdrawal of certain (un)-pathological plasma components in different ways such as perfusion and then returning the remained donor plasma to him, the latter is non-selective removal of all components of plasma to provide blood products for injec...

Introduction: Hypovolemic shock is diagnosed by the signs of hemodynamic instability and when source volume loss obvious. Among various types, hypovolemic most common which results either from blood hemorrhage or plasma alone due to extravascular fluid sequestration gastrointestinal, urinary, insensible losses. The objective this research was find use index in predicting resuscitation patients ...
