Michael Y1 - 2017 N1 - T2 - Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach, 10e AB - Content UpdateFebruary 1, 2019Normal saline versus balanced fluids for volume resuscitation: A long-standing controversy has been the relative benefits of 0.9% normal saline versus balanced intravenous crystalloids (lactated Ringer's and Plasma-Lyte A). Accumulating observational data increasingly suggests that the hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis associated with the administration of large volumes of saline leads to increased rates of acute kidney injury and need for dialysis. Two recent, large, randomized trials (SMART and SALT-ED) have attempted to answer this question in both critically ill and in non-critically ill patient populations. Although the question is not yet definitively resolved, these studies further suggest that major adverse kidney events are more frequently seen in patients resuscitated with normal saline.
