The acid-base physiology of crystalloid solutions

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 1999
Crystalloid solutions for intravenous use have complex physiologic effects. The acid-base approach of the late Peter Stewart is useful in analyzing some of these effects. The difference between the sum of the strong cations and the sum of the strong anions (strong ion difference) is an independent ...

EFFECT OF CRYSTALLOID AND COLLOID SOLUTIONS ON BLOOD RHEOLOGY IN SEPSIS

Shock, 1997
Sepsis is associated with altered blood rheology. Fluid infusion is an essential component of therapy for septic shock. The purpose of this study was to compare the rheologic changes associated with saline, albumin, and hydroxyethyl starch in sepsis. Whole blood was obtained from five normal controls and five patients with severe sepsis.

Water content of hearts perfused with crystalloid and nutrient solutions

Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 1980
Abstract One hundred and twenty excised rabbits hearts were subjected to 1 h of continuous pulsatile coronary perfusion with acellular fluids in a Lindbergh-Rockefeller Institution organ perfusion apparatus. Perfusions were carried out at 26°C and 15°C.

DIFFERENTIAL CLEARANCE OF COLLOID AND CRYSTALLOID SOLUTIONS FROM THE LUNG

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1993
The hypothesis that alveolar fluid clearance depends on factors other than the alveolar-capillary oncotic gradient was tested by comparing lung clearance rates of three different colloid solutions and isotonic saline. The solutions (4 mL/kg) were instilled into the lower lobes of New Zealand rabbits.

Effect of procaine in crystalloid and blood potassium cardioplegia solutions

Journal of Surgical Research, 1980
Abstract This study was undertaken to examine the effects of procaine (P) (2 g/liter) in multidose crystalloid (KCP) and blood (BCP) potassium (25 meq/liter) cardioplegia solutions during 2 hr of hypothermic (22°C) aortic occlusion. Four groups were studied: Group I KCP, P(−) n = 8, Group II KCP, P(+) ( n = 8), Group III BCP, P(−) n = 6, Group ...

Effects of colloid or crystalloid solutions on edemagenesis in normal and thrombomicroembolized lungs

Critical Care Medicine, 1987
We studied the effects of crystalloid (75 ml/kg of Ringer's lactate) or colloid (6% dextran-70, 6% hydroxyethyl starch, or 25 ml/kg of 5% human serum albumin) fluid infusions or no treatment (control) on the calculated lung capillary (Pc)-plasma oncotic pressure (pi c) gradient and pulmonary edema.

Effectiveness of different crystalloid IV solutions in establishing urine flow

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1996
There are several situations in Emergency Medicine when it is desirable to promote a prompt diuresis to fill the bladder or obtain urine for diagnostic tests. We attempted to determine which of 3 commonly used intravenous solutions is most effective in establishing urine flow. In a prospective, randomized double-blind crossover study of 12 healthy male

Cytotoxicity of Various Crystalloid Solutions to the Endothelial Cells of Autologous Grafts

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1991
Harvesting and storage may influence the early failure of autologous grafts. We studied the endothelial layer of human saphenous veins (HSV) and bovine internal mammary arteries (BMA) after a two-hour storage period in comparison to vessel segments prepared immediately after harvesting.

Normal Saline Versus Balanced Crystalloid Solutions for Kidney Transplantation

Transplantation Proceedings, 2019
The ideal crystalloid solution to be used during the perioperative period in patients undergoing kidney transplantation remains unclear. Normal saline (NS), the intravenous fluid commonly using during the perioperative period, contains a high chloride content, which may be associated with hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and acute kidney injury ...

The use of frozen intravenous crystalloid solutions as the refrigerant for shipping blood

Transfusion, 1987
The authors studied whether cooled sterile intravenous crystalloid solutions could be used to refrigerate red cells during shipment. Six 1000‐ml bags of 0.9 percent normal saline and lactated Ringers (RL) solutions were supercooled and tested separately at temperatures ranging from 1 to −78 ° C, with either 5 or 30 units of packed red cells (PRBCs ...
