Cerebral edema: Hypertonic saline solutions

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999
Our experience, and that of others, suggests that hypertonic saline solution therapy reduces intracranial pressure and lateral displacement of the brain in patients with cerebral edema. This therapy appears most promising in patients who have head trauma or postoperative cerebral edema.

Cholinergic-like effects of hypertonic solutions

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1961
A consideration of the physiological effects of hypertonic solutions suggested that certain aspects might be cholinergic. This hypothesis has been investigated. Concentrated urea, glucose or salt solutions were rapidly injected intravenously into 25 anesthetized dogs.

The Rebound Phenomenon and Hypertonic Solutions

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1964
T H E T E R M S secondary rise in cerebrospinal-fluid pressure or rebound phenomenon after administrationof hypertonic solutions should be defined as a significant increase in tension of cerebrospinal fluid following the period of maximum reduction of cerebro-spinal-fluid pressure and caused by mechanisms related directly to the use of the hypertonic ...

Hypertonic saline solutions in brain injury

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2004
Hypertonic saline solutions have received renewed attention as effective agents for the treatment of cerebral edema and in brain resuscitation in a variety of brain injury paradigms. Although evidence of the beneficial action of hypertonic saline solutions in traumatic brain injury is robust, data supporting use in other conditions are only now ...

ISOCHLOREMIC HYPERTONIC SOLUTIONS FOR SEVERE HEMORRHAGE

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1993
Two different hypertonic (2400 mOsm/L) isochloremic dextran solutions (sodium acetate, HAD; and sodium lactate, HLD; in 0.9% NaCl + 6% dextran 70) were compared with HSD (2400 mOsm/L NaCl + 6% dextran 70) as initial treatment for severe uninterrupted arterial bleeding.

Rapidly Administered Hypertonic Solutions

Pediatrics, 1971
The article "Clinically Significant Physiological Changes from Rapidly Administered Hypertonic Solutions: Acute Osmol Poisoning" (Pediatrics, 46:267, 1970) by Kravath, et al. is a valuable addition to the pediatric literature. In a series of interesting experiments the authors again document the potential dangers of rapid intravenous infusions of ...

Volume Kinetics and Hypertonic‐Hyperoncotic Solutions*

Transfusion Alternatives in Transfusion Medicine, 2002
SUMMARYKinetic analysis may be used to compare the potencies of infusion fluids to dilute venous plasma, which can be used as an index of plasma volume expansion. In male volunteers, Ringer's acetate and Ringer's lactate were between 5% and 15% less potent than 0.9% saline, while 7.5% saline was approximately 4 times and 7.5% saline in 6% dextran 70 ...

Effects of hypertonic solutions on bile formation

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1963
Modifications of flow and composition of bile have been studied in the guinea pig with ligated ureters after injection of hypertonic solutions of two nonmetabolizable substances, mannitol and xylose (1.66 m), into the jugular vein. A distinct and persistent decrease in biliary flow always occurs.

Effects of intravenously administered hypertonic urea solution

Acta Neurochirurgica, 1965
In 12 patients with increased intracranial pressure, caused by an expanding process, a hypertonic urea solution was intravenously administered during a craniotomy. At different times before, during and after the operation, the electrolytes, urea, glucose and total protein values were determined in various body fluids and tissues.

Hypertonic and Hypotonic Solutions

1958
The colloidal behavior of protoplasm follows a queer pattern. One surprising and rather striking fact is that agents which might presumably be supposed to act in opposite fashion often enough have the same sort of an effect on protoplasm. So for example, cold and heat both can liquefy, both can coagulate protoplasm, both can act as stimulating agents ...
