Perioperative Fluid Therapy With Balanced Crystalloids

Summary

Introduction: The strategy of perioperative fluid therapy has an important impact not only on the circulating volume and perfusion of organs and tissues but also on the patient's internal environment. The study aimed at comparing the effects of perioperatively administered balanced crystalloid infusion solutions containing different amounts of metabolizable anions on homeostasis. Methods: In the prospective randomized study, patients were assigned to Plasmalyte (PL) and Ringerfundin (RF) Groups after their postoperative transfer to an intensive care unit (ICU). The infusion solutions were parenterally administered at 1000 mL/6 hours. Arterialized capillary blood was sampled at the time of transfer to the ICU (Time 0), and again at 2 hours and 6 hours from Time 0. The collected blood was tested for blood gas parameters using the Astrup method.
