Abstract Background Hydroxyethyl starches are colloids used in fluid therapy that may reduce volume infusion compared with crystalloids, but they can affect renal function in critical care patients. This study aims to assess renal effects of starches using renal biomarkers in the perioperative setting. Methods This prospective, controlled, randomized study compared Hydroxyethyl starch 6% (HES) with Ringer's lactate (RL) in hysterectomy. Each episode of mean arterial pressure (MAP) below 60 mmHg guided the fluid replacement protocol. The RL group received 300 mL bolus of RL solution while the HES group received 150 mL of HES solution. All patients received RL (2 mL.kg−1.h−1) intraoperatively to replace insensible losses. Blood and urine samples were collected at three time points (preoperatively, 24 hours, and 40 days postoperatively) to assess urinary NGAL and KIM-1, as primary outcome, and other markers of renal function. Results Seventy patients were randomized and 60 completed the study. The RL group received a higher crystalloid volume (1,277 ± 812.7 mL vs. 630.4 ± 310.2 mL; p= 0.0002) with a higher fluid balance (780 ± 720 mL vs. 430 ± 440 mL; p= 0.03) and fluid overload (11.7% ± 10.4% vs. 7.0% ± 6.3%; p= 0.04) compared to the HES group. NGAL and KIM-1 did not differ between groups at each time point, however both biomarkers increased 24 hours postoperatively and returned to preoperative levels after 40 days in both groups. Conclusion HES did not increase renal biomarkers following open hysterectomy compared to RL. Moreover, HES provided better hemodynamic parameters using less volume, and reduced postoperative fluid balance and fluid overload.

El aporte de fluidos constituye un elemento central en la atención del paciente pediátrico hospitalizado, existiendo aún controversias acerca de cuál es la composición óptima, la dosis adecuada y la mejor estrategia para administrar los mismos. El propósito de este artículo de actualización es brindar al médico que se desempeña en las diferentes áreas de la internación pediátrica, conceptos y enfoques terapéuticos que lo ayuden en la asistencia de los pacientes que por diversos motivos requieren la administración de fluidos endovenosos. La recomendación de utilizar cristaloides en la reanimación es casi uniforme. Se observa una clara tendencia al uso de soluciones isotónicas balanceadas para la reposición del déficit previo y el aporte de fluidos de mantenimiento. En relación a la dosis y a la estrategia, es generalizada la recomendación de un enfoque más restrictivo en el aporte de volumen, aún en los pacientes con shock, donde es necesario lograr un balance entre una resucitación efectiva y el riesgo de sobrecarga de fluidos. Respecto a la administración de albúmina al 20% en el paciente crítico con hipoalbuminemia, la evidencia existente es escasa y no permite formular recomendaciones. Sin embargo, es frecuente su uso en la práctica asistencial
Intravenous fluids administration is a central element in the care of hospitalized pediatric patients, and there are still controversies about what is the optimal composition, the appropriate dose, and the best strategy for their administration. The purpose of this narrative review is to provide the physicians who works in the different areas of pediatric hospitalization, concepts and therapeutic approaches that help them in the care of patients who for diverse reasons require administration of intravenous fluids. The recommendation to use crystalloids in resuscitation is almost uniform. There is a clear trend towards the use of balanced isotonic solutions to replace the previous deficit and the supply of maintenance fluids. In relation to the dose and strategy, the recommendation of a more restrictive approach in volume administration is generalized, even in patients with shock, where it is necessary to strike a balance between effective resuscitation and the risk of fluid overload. Regarding the administration of 20% albumin in critically ill patients with hypoalbuminemia, the existing evidence is scarce and does not allow recommendations to be formulated. However, it is frequently used in healthcare practice

A ocorrência de processos fisiopatológicos que cursam com desidratação da ingesta no trato gastrointestinal dos equinos é comum na rotina clínica. Fatores como diminuição da motilidade intestinal e sobrecarga intraluminal de conteúdo desidratado podem levar a compactação em segmentos como estômago, ceco e cólons. Este estudo objetivou realizar a comparação entre soluções eletrolíticas enterais hipotônica (SeHIPO) e isotônica (SeISO) e a solução Ringer com lactato de sódio (RL IV) sobre o teor de umidade das fezes de equinos submetidos a um período de desidratação experimental (PD). Foram utilizados seis equinos adultos, todas fêmeas com idades entre 10 e 15 anos, média de 440 kg de peso corpóreo. O PD constou de 36 horas de jejum hídrico e alimentar associadas a duas administrações intravenosas de furosemida, sendo a primeira imediatamente no início (T-36) e a segunda 12 horas após o início do PD. Os tratamentos utilizados foram: SeHIPO e SeISO, ambas administradas por via nasogástrica em fluxo contínuo (HETfc), e RL IV administrada pela via intravenosa. Todos os tratamentos foram administrados a uma taxa de infusão contínua de 15mL kg-1 h-1 durante 8 horas consecutivas. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o crossover6x3, onde cada animal foi submetido, em sistema de rodízio, aos três tratamentos em momentos distintos. As soluções eletrolíticas enterais demonstraram maior eficácia na recomposição do teor de umidade das fezes quando comparadas à terapia RL IV. A hidratação enteral com soluções isotônicas e hipotônicas administrada em fluxo contínuo são eficazes em restaurar o teor de umidade das fezes, podendo ofertar uma opção econômica, segura e eficiente na reidratação de pacientes e nas afecções que cursam como obstruções intraluminais simples.
The occurrence of pathophysiological processes that curse with digesta dryness in the gastrointestinal tract of horses is common in clinical routine, factors such as decreased intestinal motility and intraluminal overload of dry content can lead to compaction in segments such as cecum and colon. This study aimed to compare a hypotonic enteral solution (SeHIPO), an isotonic enteral solution (SeISO) and a Ringer with sodium lactate solution (RL IV) over the moisture content of equine feces submitted to an experimental dehydration protocol. Six adult horses were used, all females aged between 10 and 15 years, average body weight of 440 kg. The PD consisted of a 36 hours period of water and food fasting associated with two intravenous administrations of furosemide, the first immediately at the beginning (T-36) and the second 12 hours after the beginning of the PD. The treatments used were: SeHIPO (hypotonic enteral solution administered via nasogastric), SeISO (enteral isotonic solution administered via nasogastric) and RL IV (Ringer's solution with sodium lactate administered intravenously), all treatments were administered by continuous infusion at a rate of 15mL kg-1 h-1 for 8 consecutive hours. The experimental design used was the 6x3 crossover, where each animal is submitted, in a rotation system, to the three treatments at different times. Enteral fluid therapy with isotonic and hypotonic solutions administered in continuous flow are effective in restoring the moisture content of feces, and may offer an economical, safe, and efficient option for rehydrating patients and in conditions that progress as simple intraluminal obstructions.

Fluid resuscitation is an essential intervention in critically ill patients, and its ultimate goal is to restore tissue perfusion. Critical illnesses are often accompanied by glycocalyx degradation caused by inflammatory reactions, hypoperfusion, shock, and so forth, leading to disturbed microcirculatory perfusion and organ dysfunction. Therefore, maintaining or even restoring the glycocalyx integrity may be of high priority in the therapeutic strategy. Like drugs, however, different resuscitation fluids may have beneficial or harmful effects on the integrity of the glycocalyx. The purpose of this article is to review the effects of different resuscitation fluids on the glycocalyx. Many animal studies have shown that normal saline might be associated with glycocalyx degradation, but clinical studies have not confirmed this finding. Hydroxyethyl starch (HES), rather than other synthetic colloids, may restore the glycocalyx. However, the use of HES also leads to serious adverse events such as acute kidney injury and bleeding tendencies. Some studies have suggested that albumin may restore the glycocalyx, whereas others have suggested that balanced crystalloids might aggravate glycocalyx degradation. Notably, most studies did not correct the effects of the infusion rate or fluid volume; therefore, the results of using balanced crystalloids remain unclear. Moreover, mainly animal studies have suggested that plasma may protect and restore glycocalyx integrity, and this still requires confirmation by high-quality clinical studies.

Abstract Background and objectives: Preoperative fasting may lead to undesirable effects in the surgical patient in whom there is a stimulus to ingesting clear liquids until 2 hours before anesthesia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gastric emptying of two different solutions using ultrasound. Methods: In a prospective, randomized, blind study, 34 healthy volunteers ingested 200 mL of two solutions without residues in two steps: an isotonic solution with carbohydrates, electrolytes, osmolarity of 292 mOsm.L-1, and 36 kcal; and other nutritional supplementation with carbohydrates, proteins, electrolytes, osmolarity of 680 mO.L-1, and 300 kcal. After 2 hours, a gastric ultrasound was performed to assess the antrum area and gastric volume, and the relation of gastric volume to weight (vol.w-1), whose value above 1.5 mL.kg-1 was considered a risk for bronchoaspiration. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: There was a significant difference between all parameters evaluated 2 hours after the ingestion of nutritional supplementation compared to fasting. The same occurred when the parameters between isotonic solution and nutritional supplementation were compared 2 hours after ingestion. Only one patient had vol.w-1 <1.5 mL.kg-1 2 hours after ingestion of nutritional supplementation; and only one had vol.w-1 >1.5 mL.kg-1 after ingestion of isotonic solution. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that gastric emptying of equal volumes of different solutions depends on their constitution. Those with high caloric and high osmolarity, and with proteins present, 2 hours after ingestion, increased the gastric volumes, which is compatible with the risk of gastric aspiration.
Resumo Justificativa e objetivos: O jejum pré-operatório pode levar a efeitos indesejáveis no paciente cirúrgico, em que há um estimulo à ingestão de líquidos sem resíduos até 2 horas antes da anestesia. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o esvaziamento gástrico de duas soluções diferentes por meio da ultrassonografia. Métodos: Em um estudo prospectivo, randomizado, cego, 34 voluntários saudáveis ingeriram 200 mL de duas soluções sem resíduos, em duas etapas: uma solução isotônica com carboidratos, eletrólitos, osmolaridade de 292 mOsm.L-1 e 36 kcal; e outra suplementação nutricional, com carboidratos, proteínas, eletrólitos, osmolaridade de 680 mOs.L-1 e 300 kcal. Após 2 horas, fez-se ultrassonografia gástrica com avaliação da área do antro e volume gástrico e relação do volume gástrico sobre o peso (vol.p-1), cujo valor acima de 1,5 mL.kg-1 foi considerado risco para broncoaspiração. Considerou-se p< 0,05 como estatisticamente significativo. Resultados: Houve diferença significativa entre todos os parâmetros avaliados 2 horas após a ingestão de suplementação nutricional em relação ao jejum. O mesmo ocorreu quando foram comparados os parâmetros entre solução isotônica e suplementação nutricional 2 horas após a ingestão. Apenas um paciente apresentou vol.p-1< 1,5 mL.kg-1 2 horas após a ingestão de suplementação nutricional; e apenas um apresentou vol.p-1 > 1,5 mL.kg-1, após a ingestão de solução isotônica. Conclusão: Este estudo demonstrou que o esvaziamento gástrico de volumes iguais de diferentes soluções depende de sua constituição. Aqueles com alto valor calórico e alta osmolaridade, e com proteínas presentes, 2 horas após a ingestão, aumentaram os volumes gástricos, compatíveis com o risco de aspiração gástrica.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi realizar a comparação entre três modalidades de terapias hidroeletrolíticas, sendo uma hipotônica (SeHIPO) e outra isotônica (SeISO), ambas por via enteral em fluxo contínuo (HETfc), com a solução de ringer lactato por via intravenosa (RL IV), na taxa de infusão de 15 ml/kg/h, administradas simultaneamente em tempo real por 8 horas num delineamento crossover6X3 em equinos desidratados experimentalmente pela utilização de parâmetros clínicos do exame físico e de alguns exames laboratoriais. Para tanto foram utilizadas 6 éguas adultas da raça Brasileiro de Hipismo submetidas a um protocolo experimental de indução de desidratação (PD) e posteriormente tratadas de acordo com o delineamento experimental. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que ambos os tratamentos HETfc demonstraram eficácia equivalente ao RL IV na reversão dos efeitos determinados pelo PD, ainda que para os marcadores da volemia, tais como o Volume Globular (VG), Proteínas Plasmáticas Totais (PPT) e porcentagem de Volume Plasmático (%VP) tenham sido relativamente mais lentos. Porém, para os demais marcadores clínicos a eficácia entre as três terapias estudadas foi equivalente. Esses resultados comprovam a ação das terapias HETfc ao serem comparadas ao tratamento RL IV, pela utilização dos marcadores clínicos e laboratoriais utilizados, e justificam a indicação e utilização dessas modalidades terapêuticas em equinos.
The objective of the present study was to compare three modalities of hydroelectrolytic therapies, one hypotonic (SeHIPO) and another isotonic (SeISO), both by continuous enteral flow (HETfc), with intravenous lactated ringer solution ( RL IV), at the infusion rate of 15 ml / kg / h, administered simultaneously in real time for 8 hours in a 6X3 crossover design in horses experimentally dehydrated by the use of clinical parameters of the physical examination and some laboratory tests. Six adult mares of the Brazilian Equestrian race were submitted to an experimental protocol for induction of dehydration (PD) and later treated according to the experimental design. The results showed that both HETfc treatments demonstrated an efficacy equivalent to RL IV in the reversal of the effects determined by PD, although for volume markers such as Globular Volume (VG), Total Plasma Proteins (PPT) and Percentage of Plasmatic Volume (% VP) were relatively slower. However, for the other clinical markers the efficacy among the three therapies studied was equivalent. These results confirm the action of HETfc therapies when compared to RL IV treatment, by the clinical and laboratorial markes used, and justify the indication and use of these therapeutic modalities in horses.

Resumen: Introducción: Este estudio tuvo por objetivo valorar las diferencias entre el tipo de fluidoterapia ini cial utilizada (sueros isotónicos o hipotónicos) en el desarrollo de hiponatremia, valores de cloro y to lerancia de las vías venosas. Pacientes y Método: Estudio retrospectivo de cohortes en una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Pediátricos (UCIP) de un hospital terciario. Se incluyeron niños menores de 15 años ingresados durante el primer semestre de los años 2010 y 2013, que recibieron fluidoterapia in travenosa, excluyéndose los sometidos a cirugía cardiaca, trasplantados renales y aquellos con ingreso inferior a 24 h. Se recogieron datos epidemiológicos, de comorbilidad y relacionados con el ingreso, tipo de suero recibido, valores de sodio y cloro en las primeras 72 h y la incidencia de extravasaciones de vías periféricas. Resultados: Se incluyeron 111 niños: 68 (61,3%) recibieron líquidos hipotónicos y 43 (38,7%) isotónicos. No hubo diferencias respecto a la patología y gravedad, ni tampoco en el volumen de líquidos recibido. Entre los pacientes que recibieron sueros hipotónicos, 28 (41,2%) pre sentaron hiponatremia, siendo esta moderada (Na <130 mEq/kg) en 11 de ellos, en comparación con 8 niños (18,6%) entre los que recibieron sueros isotónicos, registrando hiponatremia moderada solo en un caso (p=0,027). No se registró ningún caso de hipernatremia, ni hubo diferencias en los valores de cloro plasmático. Tampoco se objetivó mayor frecuencia de pérdida del acceso venoso utilizando la fluidoterapia isotónica (4,7% vs. 7,4%, p=0,704). Conclusión: El uso de líquidos iniciales isotóni cos en niños hospitalizados en UCIP se asocia con menor incidencia y gravedad de hiponatremia, sin cambio en la cloremia y es bien tolerado por las vías venosas periféricas.
Abstract: Introduction: The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between the type of initial fluid therapy used (isotonic or hypotonic solutions) and the development of hyponatremia, the plas ma chlorine values and the tolerance of venous access. Patients and Method: Retrospective cohort study in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of a high complexity hospital. There were included children younger than 15 years old hospitalized during the first semester of 2010 and 2013 who recei ved intravenous maintenance fluid therapy, excluding patients undergoing cardiac surgery, kidney transplant and admissions that lasted less than 24 hours. Epidemiological, comorbidity and admis sion-related data were collected, including type of solution received, sodium and chlorine values in the first 72 hours of hospitalization and the incidence of extravasation of peripheral intravenous lines. Results: 111 children were included; 68 children (61.3%) were treated with hypotonic solutions and 43 (38.7%) with isotonic solutions. There were no differences in pathology and severity, and also in the volume of fluid received. Among the patients who received hypotonic solutions, 28 (41.2%) de veloped hyponatremia, wich was moderate (Na <130 mEq/Kg) in 11 cases, compared with 8 children (18.6%) who received isotonic solutions, with only one case of moderate hyponatremia (p = 0.027). No cases of hypernatremia were recorded, and there were no differences in plasma chlorine values. There was also no increased frequency of venous access loss in patients treated with isotonic solutions (4.7% versus 7.4%, p = 0.704). Conclusion: Treatment with initial isotonic solutions in children hos pitalized in PICU is associated with a lower incidence and severity of hyponatremia, without changes in the plasma chlorine values and it is well tolerated by peripheral intravenous lines.

ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the morphology and function of autogenous splenic tissue implanted in the greater omentum, 24 hours after storage in Ringer-lactate solution. Methods: we divided 35 male rats into seven groups (n=5): Group 1: no splenectomy; Group 2: total splenectomy without implant; Group 3: total splenectomy and immediate autogenous implant; Group 4: total splenectomy, preservation of the spleen in Ringer-lactate at room temperature, then sliced and implanted; Group 5: total splenectomy, spleen sliced and preserved in Ringer-lactate at room temperature before implantation; Group 6: total splenectomy with preservation of the spleen in Ringer-lactate at 4°C and then sliced and implanted; Group 7: total splenectomy and the spleen sliced for preservation in Ringer-lactate at 4°C before implantation. After 90 days, we performed scintigraphic studies with Tc99m-colloidal tin (liver, lung, spleen or implant and clot), haematological exams (erythrogram, leucometry, platelets), biochemical dosages (protein electrophoresis) and anatomopathological studies. Results: regeneration of autogenous splenic implants occurred in the animals of the groups with preservation of the spleen at 4ºC. The uptake of colloidal tin was higher in groups 1, 3, 6 and 7 compared with the others. There was no difference in hematimetric values in the seven groups. Protein electrophoresis showed a decrease in the gamma fraction in the group of splenectomized animals in relation to the operated groups. Conclusion: the splenic tissue preserved in Ringer-lactate solution at 4ºC maintains its morphological structure and allows functional recovery after being implanted on the greater omentum.
RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar morfologia e função de tecido esplênico autógeno, implantado no omento maior, 24 horas após conservação em solução de Ringer-lactato. Métodos: foram estudados 35 ratos machos, distribuídos em sete grupos (n=5): Grupo 1: sem esplenectomia; Grupo 2: esplenectomia total sem implante; Grupo 3: esplenectomia total e implante autógeno imediato; Grupo 4: esplenectomia total, preservação do baço em Ringer-lactato à temperatura ambiente, em seguida, fatiado e implantado; Grupo 5: esplenectomia total, baço fatiado e preservado em Ringer-lactato à temperatura ambiente antes de ser implantado; Grupo 6: esplenectomia total com preservação do baço em Ringer-lactato a 4°C e, em seguida, fatiado e implantado; Grupo 7: esplenectomia total e baço fatiado, para preservação em Ringer-lactato a 4°C antes de ser implantado. Após 90 dias, realizaram-se estudos cintilográficos com estanho coloidal-Tc99m (fígado, pulmão, baço ou implante e coágulo), hematológicos (eritrograma, leucometria, plaquetas), bioquímicos (eletroforese de proteínas) e anatomopatológicos. Resultados: ocorreu regeneração dos implantes esplênicos autógenos nos animais dos grupos com preservação do baço a 4ºC. A captação de estanho coloidal foi superior nos grupos 1, 3, 6 e 7 em relação aos demais. Não houve diferença nos valores hematimétricos nos sete grupos. A eletroforese de proteínas mostrou diminuição da fração gama no grupo de animais esplenectomizados em relação aos grupos operados. Conclusão: o tecido esplênico conservado em solução de Ringer-lactato à temperatura de 4ºC mantém sua estrutura morfológica e permite a recuperação funcional após ser implantado sobre o omento maior.

Background: cesarean section is the surgical delivery of a baby that involves making an incision in the mother's abdominal wall and uterus. Spinal anesthesia is considered the "gold standard" technique for cesarean section. Hypotension is the most common side effect of neuraxial blocks in the obstetric patient with an incidence rate reported as high as 83%. This has remained a significant concern for the anesthesiologist during management of this patient
Aim of the work: This study will be performed to compare the effects of colloid pre-load and colloid co-load on maternal haemodynamic changes during spinal anaesthesia for cesarean section
Patient's and Methods: A comparative cross sectional study was conducted at Ain Shams Maternity Hospital. After obtaining approval of research ethical committee and patients' informed consents at which 105 women with full term singleton pregnancies were scheduled for elective cesarean section and received spinal anesthesia. The patient's age were between 18 -42 years, of ASA physical status. In our study 3 groups of patients were compared; each group is formed of 35 patients Group 1; patients were pre-loaded with 500 ml of 6% HES[hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4] 20 minutes before induction of anesthesia. Group2; patients were co-loaded with 500ml of 6% HES [hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4] during injection of bupivacaine. Group 3; patients were pre-loaded with 500ml lactated ringer solution 20 minutes before induction of anaesthesia
Results: There was a decrease in SBP, DBP,MAP and HR in the 3 groups where the lowest values were recorded in group 3 between 6-15 minutes and there was a high statistical difference p<0.0001 while the intergroup comparison of the groups 1 and 2 showed no statistical significance as regards SBP,DBP,MAP and HR
Conclusion: In this study it was found that colloid co-load was somewhat how equal to colloid pre-load in prevention of hypotension in a parturient undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia in addition it was found that crystalloid pre-load was inferior to colloid co-load or pre-load in maintaining blood pressure during spinal anesthesia in parturients

Abstract Introduction: Nasal instillation of saline solution has been used as part of the treatment of patients with upper respiratory tract diseases. Despite its use for a number of years, factors such as the amount of saline solution to be used, degree of salinity, method and frequency of application have yet to be fully explained. Objective: Review the reported outcomes of saline nasal irrigation in adults with allergic rhinitis, acute or chronic sinusitis and after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), and provide evidence to assist physiotherapists in decision making in clinical practice. Methods: A search was conducted of the Pubmed and Cochrane Library databases between 2007 and 2014. A combination of the following descriptors was used as a search strategy: nasal irrigation, nasal lavage, rhinitis, sinusitis, saline, saline solution. Results: Eight clinical trials were included, analyzed according to participant diagnosis. Conclusion: The evidence found was heterogeneous, but contributed to elucidating uncertainties regarding the use of nasal lavage in the clinical practice of physical therapy, such as the protocols used.

Abstract Background and objectives: The current preoperative fasting guidelines allow fluid intake up to 2 h before surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the gastric volume of volunteers after an overnight fast and compare it with the gastric volume 2 h after ingestion of 200 and 500 mL of isotonic solution, by means of ultrasound assessment. Method: Eighty volunteers underwent gastric ultrasound at three times: after 8 h of fasting; 2 h after ingestion of 200 mL isotonic saline, followed by the first scan; and on another day, 2 h after ingestion of 500 mL of the same solution after an overnight fast. The evaluation was quantitative (antrum area and gastric volume, and the ratio of participants' gastric volume/weight) and qualitative (absence or presence of gastric contents on right lateral decubitus and supine positions. A p-value < 0.05 was considered significant). Results: There was no difference in quantitative variables at measurement times (p > 0.05). Five volunteers (6.25%) had a volume/weight over 1.5 mL kg-1 at fasting and 2 h after ingestion of 200 mL and 6 (7.5%) after 500 mL. Qualitatively, the presence of gastric fluid occurred in more volunteers after fluid ingestion, especially 500 mL (18.7%), although not statistically significant. Conclusion: Ultrasound assessment of gastric volume showed no significant difference, both qualitative and quantitative, 2 h after ingestion of 200 mL or 500 mL of isotonic solution compared to fasting, although gastric fluid content has been identified in more volunteers, especially after ingestion of 500 mL isotonic solution.
Resumo Justificativa e objetivos: As diretrizes recentes de jejum pré-operatório permitem a ingestão de líquidos até 2 horas antes da cirurgia. O objetivo do presente estudo foi, por meio de ultrassonografia gástrica, avaliar o volume gástrico de voluntários após jejum noturno e comparar com o volume gástrico duas horas após a ingestão de 200 e 500 ml de solução isotônica. Método: Foram submetidos à ultrassonografia gástrica 80 voluntários em três momentos: após jejum de 8 horas; 2 horas após a ingestão de 200 ml de solução isotônica, seguida do primeiro exame; e, em outro dia, 2 horas após a ingestão de 500 ml da mesma solução, após jejum noturno. A avaliação foi quantitativa (área do antro e volume gástricos e relação volume gástrico/peso dos participantes) e qualitativa, pela ausência ou presença de conteúdo gástrico nas posições de decúbito lateral direito e supina. Foi considerado significante p < 0,05. Resultados: Não houve diferença nas variáveis quantitativas nos três momentos estudados (p > 0,05). Cinco voluntários (6,25%) apresentaram um volume/peso superior a 1,5 ml.kg-1 em jejum e 2 horas após a ingestão de 200 ml e seis (7,5%) após 500 ml. Qualitativamente, a presença de líquido gástrico ocorreu em mais voluntários após a ingestão de líquidos, principalmente de 500 ml (18,7%), embora sem significância estatística. Conclusão: O volume gástrico pela ultrassonografia não apresenta diferença significativa tanto qualitativa quanto quantitativa, 2 horas após a ingestão de 200 ml ou de 500 ml de solução isotônica em comparação com o jejum, embora conteúdo líquido gástrico tenha sido identificado em mais voluntários, principalmente após a ingestão de 500 ml de solução isotônica.

Introducción: dos factores importantes han sido descritos como contribuyentes en la aparición de fatiga durante el ejercicio físico: la disminución de las reservas de glucógeno muscular y la pérdida de agua con electrolitos a través del sudor, que favorecen la deshidratación. Debido a esto, la reposición de líquidos y electrolitos posterior al ejercicio físico se transforma en la prioridad para restablecer la homeostasis corporal alterada durante el ejercicio físico. Por su composición nutricional, la leche parece ser una buena alternativa natural como bebida rehidratante posterior al ejercicio físico. Objetivo: comparar la efectividad como bebida de rehidratación de la leche descremada chocolatada contra una bebida deportiva artificial en militares, a partir de la hipótesis de que la leche descremada chocolatada tiene iguales o mejores efectos sobre la hidratación post ejercicio, que una bebida deportiva artificial. Método: 30 militares (23,0 ± 3,2 años) se dividieron en 2 grupos: 1) rehidratación con bebida deportiva con 6 pòr ciento de carbohidratos y relación de Na/K 2:1 (grupo ISO). Rehidratación con leche descremada chocolatada (grupo LECHE). Se evaluó la retención de fluidos a través del peso corporal y la gravedad específica de la orina (GEO) antes y después del ejercicio físico y posterior a las 2 horas de rehidratación. Resultados: se encontraron diferencias significativas (p< 0,05) en la retención de fluidos en el grupo LECHE comparado con el grupo ISO. No hubo diferencias significativas entre la GEO de ambos grupos. Conclusión: Los resultados muestran que la rehidratación con leche descremada es más efectiva en la retención de fluidos y recuperación del peso previo al ejercicio que la bebida deportiva(AU)
ntroduction: Two important factors have been described as contributing to the onset of fatigue during physical exercise: Decreased muscle glycogen stores and the loss of water with electrolytes through sweating, favoring dehydration. Because of this, fluid and electrolyte replacement after physical exercise becomes the priority to restore altered body homeostasis during physical exercise. Due to its nutritional composition, milk appears to be a good natural alternative as a rehydration beverage after exercise. Objective: To compare the effectiveness chocolate skim milk as pots-exercise rehydration beverage with an artificial sports drink in the military, based on the hypothesis that chocolate skim milk has equal or better effects on post-exercise hydration than an artificial sports drink. Method: 30 soldiers (23.0 ± 3.2 years) were divided into 2 groups: 1) rehydration with sports drink with 6 percent carbohydrates and ratio of Na / K 2: 1 (ISO group). Rehydration with chocolate skim milk (LECHE group). Fluid retention was assessed through body weight and the specific gravity of urine (GEO) before and after physical exercise and after 2 hours of rehydration. Results: significant differences were found (p < 0.05) in fluid retention in the LECHE group compared to the ISO group. There were no significant differences between the GEO of both groups. Conclusion: The results show that rehydration with skim milk is more effective in fluid retention and weight recovery prior to exercise than sports drink(AU)

Spinal anesthesia is the technique of choice for patients undergoing cesarean section. One of the most common adverse effects of this technique is arterial hypotension, which if severe, can result in serious maternal and fetal injury or death. Different alternatives exist to prevent and treat hypotension associated to spinal anesthesia; one of them is fluid therapy. The objective of this review is to evaluate the currently available evidence for different fluid therapy alternatives and assess their effectiveness. Nowadays, it does not seem advisable to use preload with crystalloids as evidence suggests its ineffectiveness. As for the other three alternatives (preload with colloids, coload with crystalloids and coload with colloids) there is no superiority among them and neither of them seems effective enough to be used as monotherapy. Due to its safety and ease of use, coload with crystalloids associated to alpha agonist vasopressor therapy seems to be the best management strategy. Further studies should aim at the best way to administer fluids in order to optimize vasopressor therapy.
La técnica anestésica de elección para operación cesárea es la anestesia subaracnoídea. Uno de los principales efectos adversos de esta técnica es la hipotensión arterial, que puede llegar a ocasionar graves complicaciones. Existen diversas alternativas para la prevención y manejo de la hipotensión arterial; una de ellas la fluidoterapia. El objetivo de esta revisión es evaluar la evidencia reciente disponible para las distintas alternativas de fluidoterapia y evaluar su efectividad. Actualmente no parece recomendable el utilizar precarga con cristaloides para la prevención de hipotensión arterial. En cuanto a las otras tres alternativas(precarga con coloides, cocarga con cristaloides o cocarga coloides) ninguna parece ser más efectiva que las otras previniendo hipotensión arterial y ninguna sería efectiva como monoterapia. Por su disponibilidad y seguridad de uso, al día de hoy la cocarga con cristaloides asociada a terapia vasopresora alfa agonista parece ser la mejor alternativa. Estudios futuros debieran apuntar a encontrar la forma de infusión que optimize la terapia con vasopresores.

Background and Objectives: Large-volume administration of 0.9% saline are known to causes hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis [HMA] due to its high chloride load. Balanced or physiological fluids with inorganic ions are not associated with the same disturbance. The purpose of this study was to see whether balanced crystalloid and colloid solutions cause less disturbances in postoperative acid base status than sodium chloride based solutions in patients undergoing elective open gastrointestinal surgery
Methodology: Study subjects were patients aged between 30-60 years, ASA grades I and II, undergoing elective open gastrointestinal surgery, were selected as per proposed sampling design and were allotted into two groups, by the help of simple randomization process. Patients in the Group B received Hartmann's solution and 6% hetastarch in balanced electrolyte and glucose solution and patients in the Group N received 0.9% sodium chloride solution and 6% hetastarch in 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Arterial blood samples were taken from both the groups of patients just prior to and 30 min after surgery. Baseline and final acid base status, heart rate, mean blood pressure, peripheral temperature, as well as urine output before, during and after surgery were recorded up to 48 hours. Prevalence of development of HMA was determined by appropriate statistical technique
Results: The mean chloride level of normal saline group postoperatively was 118.66 +/- 5.75 mmol/L [Normal range: 98-106 mmol/L] whereas in balanced saline group it was 103.27 +/- 2.29 mmol/L, arterial pH was 7.31 +/- 0.29 and 7.4 +/- 0.02 respectively. Hence the changes in chloride level as well as arterial pH were significant in normal saline group versus balanced fluid group
Conclusion: Normal saline based fluids cause significant alteration in arterial chloride and pH levels against the use of balanced fluids in gastrointestinal surgery

O uso do cateter venoso periférico intermitente em pacientes hospitalizados pode lhes trazer grandes benefícios, proporcionando maior liberdade com a higiene pessoal, alimentação, deambulação, além melhorias para a equipe de enfermagem com redução das rotinas diárias. No entanto, obstrução do cateter é algo que vem na contramão de uma assistência adequada, causando desconforto para o paciente e aumento do trabalho de enfermagem. Para evitar tal evento e garantir a perviedade do cateter intravascular, deve-se realizar o flushing com solução salina ou solução de heparina, após a administração de medicamentos ou em horários programados de acordo com o protocolo interno das instituições de saúde. Nesse contexto, surge o questionamento de qual é a melhor solução para manter a perviedade do cateter venoso periférico intermitente. Este estudo trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, com o objetivo de avaliar a efetividade do uso da solução salina comparada à solução de heparina na manutenção da perviedade dos cateteres venosos periféricos. Foi realizada a busca nas bases de dados eletrônicas Cinahl, Cochrane Central, Embase, Lilacs, Pubmed e Web of Science. Das 372 referências identificadas, 12 estudos foram selecionados após a análise de título e resumo para serem lidos na íntegra, sendo que 04 constituíram a amostra final. A extração e análise dos dados foram realizadas por dois revisores independentes e as divergências entre eles foram solucionadas por um terceiro revisor. Os 04 estudos foram publicados no período de 1995 a 2015. Ao todo, foram investigados 975 dispositivos endovenosos mantidos com uma das soluções estudadas em 420 participantes. Os estudos testaram a solução de heparina em dosagens que variaram de 10UI/mL a 100UI/mL versus a solução salina e investigaram as complicações relacionadas ao cateter venoso periférico em uso intermitente, sendo uma delas a obstrução do cateter a qual denominamos como ausência e/ou diminuição da perviedade do cateter venoso, que pode ser evitada com o flushing de forma adequada. As intervenções foram testadas em diferentes populações e não foram concordantes em suas conclusões; dois estudos recomendaram a solução de heparina, um estudo, a solução salina, e um recomenda o uso das duas soluções. Os quatro estudos discutem que as duas soluções são seguras e eficazes para a manutenção da perviedade do cateter venoso periférico. Porém, os autores afirmam que o tamanho da amostra não é suficiente para generalizar os resultados para todos os pacientes hospitalizados. Assim, essa revisão sistemática sugere a necessidade de que novos ensaios clínicos randomizados sejam realizados e que as instituições de saúde devem fomentar as investigações clínicas para validar uma assistência de enfermagem alicerçada em práticas seguras e de qualidade
The using of intermittent peripheral venous catheter in a hospitalized patient can bring to them important benefits, providing more freedom concerning to the personal hygiene, feeding, ambulation, and a lot of another improvements for the nursing team, reducing the daily routines. However, catheter obstruction it is something that disturb an appropriate assistence, provoking discomfort to the patient and increasing the need of job of the nursing team. To avoid this fact and to ensure the patency of the intervascular catheter, must to do the flushing process with saline solution or hepamin, after the application of drugs or in pre established time according to the protocol of procedure of the health institutions. In this regard, it emerges the questioning about what is the best solution to keep the patency of the intermittent peripheral venous catheter. This research is a systematic review about the litetature on this subject, and it aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the using of the saline solution in comparison to the heparin in the maintenance of the patency of the peripheral venous catheter. It has been done a research in the electronic databases Cinahl, Cochrane Central, Embase, Lilacs, Pubmed and Web of Science. An amount of 372 references was identified, but just 12 research were selected after the analysis of their titles and abstracts to be fully read. In the end, 04 of them were picked as definitive samples.The data collect and the anlysis were done by two independent reviewers, and the divergences between them were solved by a third reviewer. The 04 research were publicized in the 1995 to 2015 period. Altogheter, were searched 975 intravenous devices, keeping them with one of the studied solutions in 420 patients. Th estudies tried the heparin in dosages that vary from 10UI/mL to 100UI/mL versus the saline solution and investigated the complications related to the peripheral venous catheter in a intermittent using. One of these complications was the catheter obstruction, wich were designated as lack or the decrease of the patency of the venous catheter, that can be avoided with an appropriate flushing process. The interventions were tried in different populations, and they were not concordant in their conclusions. Two research recommended the heparin, one, the saline solution, and one of them recommend to use both. The four research affirm that the heparin and the saline solution are safety and effective for the maintenance of the patency of the peripheral venous catheter. However, the authors say point out that the quantity of the simple is not enough to to generalize the results regarding to all hospitalized patients. Thus, this systematic review suggest the necessity of new randomized clinical testings. In addition, the health institutions must promote clinical research in order to validate a solid nursing assistance based on safety and appropriated practices

RESUMO A administração de fluidos em tempo adequado é crucial para a manutenção da perfusão tissular nos pacientes com choque séptico. Entretanto, a questão da escolha do fluido a ser utilizado para ressuscitação no choque séptico ainda é um assunto em debate. É crescente o corpo de evidência que sugere que o tipo, a quantidade e o momento da administração de fluidos durante a evolução da sepse podem afetar os desfechos do paciente. Os cristaloides têm sido recomendados como fluidos a serem administrados em primeira linha na ressuscitação do choque. No entanto, à luz da natureza inconclusiva da literatura disponível, não se podem fazer recomendações definitivas quanto à solução cristaloide mais apropriada. A ressuscitação de pacientes críticos sépticos e não sépticos com cristaloides não balanceados, principalmente a solução salina a 0,9%, tem sido associada a uma maior incidência de desordens do equilíbrio ácido-base e a distúrbios eletrolíticos, além de poder se associar à maior incidência de lesão renal aguda, à maior necessidade de terapia de substituição renal e à mortalidade. Foi proposto o uso de soluções cristaloides balanceadas como uma alternativa às soluções de cristaloides não balanceados, para mitigar seus efeitos deletérios. Entretanto, a segurança e a eficácia dos cristaloides balanceados para ressuscitação do choque séptico necessitam ser mais bem exploradas em estudos clínicos bem delineados, randomizados e controlados, multicêntricos e pragmáticos.
ABSTRACT Timely fluid administration is crucial to maintain tissue perfusion in septic shock patients. However, the question concerning which fluid should be used for septic shock resuscitation remains a matter of debate. A growing body of evidence suggests that the type, amount and timing of fluid administration during the course of sepsis may affect patient outcomes. Crystalloids have been recommended as the first-line fluids for septic shock resuscitation. Nevertheless, given the inconclusive nature of the available literature, no definitive recommendations about the most appropriate crystalloid solution can be made. Resuscitation of septic and non-septic critically ill patients with unbalanced crystalloids, mainly 0.9% saline, has been associated with a higher incidence of acid-base balance and electrolyte disorders and might be associated with a higher incidence of acute kidney injury. This can result in greater demand for renal replacement therapy and increased mortality. Balanced crystalloids have been proposed as an alternative to unbalanced solutions in order to mitigate their detrimental effects. Nevertheless, the safety and effectiveness of balanced crystalloids for septic shock resuscitation need to be further addressed in a well-designed, multicenter, pragmatic, randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT Purpose: To analyze the short-term clinical and topographic outcomes in patients with keratoconus after corneal collagen cross-linking treatment (CXL) with dextran-free isotonic riboflavin solution. Methods: In this retrospective case series, 26 eyes from 26 patients with keratoconus were studied. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and refractive and topographic findings were analyzed at a 6-month follow-up. Results: The mean BCVA (Snellen lines) values before and 1, 3, and 6 months after CXL were 0.51 ± 0.2, 0.48 ± 0.2, 0.57 ± 0.2, and 0.64 ± 0.2, respectively, and the difference between the preoperative and 6-month values was statistically significant (p=0.006). The mean spherical equivalent refraction decreased from -5.6 ± 2.4 diopters (D) preoperatively to -5.0 ± 2.1 D, and mean simulated keratometry decreased from 48.5 ± 2.5 D to 47.8 ± 2.6 D at 6 months. (p=0.145 and p=0.001, respectively). In addition, the maximum keratometry decreased progressively and significantly from the preoperative value during follow-up (p=0.003). The central and minimal corneal thicknesses, including those of the epithelium, also decreased from 442.8 ± 25.6 µm and 430.5 ± 23.9 µm preoperatively to 420.7 ± 31.8 µm and 409.3 ± 28.7 µm at the most recent follow-up (p<0.001), respectively. No intraoperative or postoperative complications were observed. Conclusions: CXL with dextran-free isotonic riboflavin solution appears to be a safe treatment alternative for keratoconus and yields sustained short-term improvements in visual acuity, keratometric readings, and corneal thickness. However, long-term results are needed to confirm these outcomes.
RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar os resultados clínicos e topográficos curto prazo após crosslinking (CXL) de córnea com solução isotônica de riboflavina sem dextrano, em pacientes com ceratocone. Método: Estudamos 26 olhos de 26 pacientes com ceratocone, nesta série retrospectiva de casos. Melhor acuidade visual corrigida (BCVA), refração e achados topográficos foram analisados aos 6 meses de acompanhamento. Resultados: BCVA pré-operatória (linhas de Snellen) foi de 0,51 ± 0,2. BCVA após CXL foram de 0,48 ± 0,2, 0,57 ± 0,2 e 0,64 ± 0,2 no 1º, 3º e 6º meses, respectivamente. A diferença entre a BCVA pré-operatória e mais recente foi estatisticamente significativa (p=0,006). O equivalente esférico médio diminuiu de -5,6 ± 2,4 dioptrias (D) no pré-operatório para -5.0 ± 2.1 D e a média da ceratometria simulada diminuiu de 48,5 ± 2,5 D para 47, 8± 2,6 D aos 6 meses. (p=0,145 e p=0,001, respectivamente). A ceratometria máxima diminuiu progressivamente durante o acompanhamento com as mudanças sendo significativamente diferentes do valor pré-operatório (p=0,003). As espessuras corneanas central e mínima, diminuiram de 442,8 ± 25,6 µm e 430,5 ± 23,9 µm para 420,7 ± 31,8 µm e 409,3 ± 28,7 µm, respectivamente, na visita mais recente (p<0,001). Não foram observadas complicações intraoperatórias e pós-operatórias. Conclusões: CXL com solução de riboflavina isotônica sem dextrano parece ser uma opção segura de tratamento para o ceratocone com melhora mantida na acuidade visual, ceratometria e espessura corneana, no curto prazo. Resultados a longo prazo são necessários para confirmar estes resultados.

Fluid resuscitation, hemostasis, and transfusion is essential in care of hemorrhagic shock. Although estimation of the residual blood volume is crucial, the standard measuring methods are impractical or unsafe. Vital signs, central venous or pulmonary artery pressures are inaccurate. We hypothesized that the residual blood volume for acute, non-ongoing hemorrhage was calculable using serial hematocrit measurements and the volume of isotonic solution infused. Blood volume is the sum of volumes of red blood cells and plasma. For acute, non-ongoing hemorrhage, red blood cell volume would not change. A certain portion of the isotonic fluid would increase plasma volume. Mathematically, we suggest that the residual blood volume after acute, non-ongoing hemorrhage might be calculated as 0·25N/[(Hct1/Hct2)-1], where Hct1 and Hct2 are the initial and subsequent hematocrits, respectively, and N is the volume of isotonic solution infused. In vivo validation and modification is needed before clinical application of this model.

Cardioplegic reperfusion during a long term ischemic period interrupts cardiac surgery and also increases cellular edema due to repeated solution administration. We reviewed the clinical experiences on myocardial protection of a single perfusion with histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) for high-risk patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with complex congenital heart disease. This retrospective study included 101 high-risk patients undergoing arterial switch operation between March 2001 and July 2012. We divided the cohort into two groups: HTK group, myocardial protection was carried out with one single perfusion with HTK solution; and St group, myocardial protection with conventional St. Thomas' crystalloid cardioplegic solution. The duration of cardiopulmonary bypass did not differ between the two groups. The mortality, morbidity, ICU stay, post-operative hospitalization time, and number of transfusions in HTK group were lower than those in St group (P<0.05). Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that HTK is a statistically significant independent predictor of decreased early mortality and morbidity (P<0.05). In conclusion, HTK solution seems to be an effective and safe alternative to St. Thomas' solution for cardioplegic reperfusion in high-risk patients with complex congenital heart disease.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To compare two electrolyte maintenance solutions in the postoperative period in children undergoing appendectomy, in relation to the occurrence of hyponatremia and water retention. METHODS: A randomized clinical study involving 50 pediatric patients undergoing appendectomy, who were randomized to receive 2,000 mL/m2/day of isotonic (Na 150 mEq/L or 0.9% NaCl) or hypotonic (Na 30 mEq/L NaCl or 0.18%) solution. Electrolytes, glucose, urea, and creatinine were measured at baseline, 24 h, and 48 h after surgery. Volume infused, diuresis, weight, and water balance were analyzed. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients had initial hyponatremia; in this group, 13 received hypotonic solution. Seventeen patients remained hyponatremic 48 h after surgery, of whom ten had received hypotonic solution. In both groups, sodium levels increased at 24 h (137.4 ± 2.2 and 137.0 ± 2.7 mmol/L), with no significant difference between them (p = 0.593). Sodium levels 48 h after surgery were 136.6 ± 2.7 and 136.2 ± 2.3 mmol/L in isotonic and hypotonic groups, respectively, with no significant difference. The infused volume and urine output did not differ between groups during the study. The water balance was higher in the period before surgery in patients who received hypotonic solution (p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS: In the post-appendectomy period, the use of hypotonic solution (30 mEq/L, 0.18%) did not increase the risk of hyponatremia when compared to isotonic saline. The use of isotonic solution (150 mEq/L, 0.9%) did not favor hypernatremia in these patients. Children who received hypotonic solution showed higher cumulative fluid balance in the preoperative period.
RESUMO OBJETIVO: Comparar duas soluções de manutenção hidroeletrolítica no período pós-operatório (PO) de crianças submetidas à apendicectomia quanto à ocorrência de hiponatremia e retenção hídrica. MÉTODOS: Estudo clínico randomizado que envolveu 50 pacientes pediátricos submetidos à apendicectomia, randomizados para receber 2.000 ml/m2/dia de solução isotônica (Na 150 mEq/L ou NaCl 0,9%) ou hipotônica (Na 30mEq/L ou NaCl 0,18%). Eletrólitos, glicose, ureia e creatinina foram mensurados no início do estudo, 24 e 48 horas após a cirurgia. Foram analisados volume infundido, diurese, peso e balanço hídrico. RESULTADOS: Apresentaram hiponatremia inicial 24 pacientes. Desses, 13 receberam solução hipotônica. Dezessete pacientes permaneceram hiponatrêmicas 48 horas após a cirurgia, 10 haviam recebido solução hipotônica. Nos dois grupos os níveis de sódio aumentaram na 24ª hora PO (137,4 ± 2,2 e 137,0 ± 2,7) e não houve diferença entre eles (p = 0,593). Níveis de sódio 48 h após a cirurgia foram 136,6 ± 2,7 e 136,2 ± 2,3 no grupo isotônico e hipotônico respectivamente sem diferença significativa. Os volumes infundidos e a diurese não diferiram entre os grupos durante o estudo. O balanço hídrico foi maior no período anterior à cirurgia no grupo de pacientes que receberam solução hipotônica (p = 0,021). CONCLUSÕES: No período pós-apendicectomia, o uso da solução hipotônica não aumentou o risco de hiponatremia quando comparado com uma solução salina isotônica. O uso da solução isotônica não favoreceu a hipernatremia nesses pacientes. Crianças que receberam solução hipotônica apresentaram maior balanço hídrico cumulativo no período pré-operatório.
