ABSTRACT Physiologists have shown that increased fluids improve skeletal muscle performance in prolonged exercise. Typical orders provide for 125 mL of intravenous fluids per hour in patients taking limited oral fluids during labor. Our purpose in this study was to determine whether increased intravenous fluids affect the progress oflabor. In a prospective randomized institutional clinical tri...

As internists we like to think of ourselves as physicians with knowledge of disturbances of the milieu intérieur. Indeed, other specialities often call us for help when they are confronted with fluid and electrolyte disorders. The unrivalled number one of your electrolyte consults will undoubtedly be hyponatraemia. For example, hyponatraemia may arise in the postoperative period due to the comb...

The topic of intravenous (IV) fluids may be regarded as "reverse nephrology", because nephrologists usually treat to remove fluids rather than to infuse them. However, because nephrology is deeply rooted in fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance, IV fluids belong in the realm of our specialty. The field of IV fluid therapy is in motion due to the increasing use of balanced crystalloids, part...

a bstract background: shivering is a common complication of general and epidural anesthesia. warming methods and many drugs are used for control of shivering in the recovery room. the present study is a randomized clinical trial aimed to investigate the effects of two interventions in comparison with pethidine which is the routine treatment on shivering in patients undergoing abdominal surgery ...
