Crystalloid fluids are a type of intravenous solution employed in medical settings. Essential for fluid resuscitation in cases of hypovolemia, hemorrhage, sepsis, and dehydration, these solutions are indispensable for maintaining patient hemodynamic stability. Beyond resuscitation, crystalloids are used for intravenous medication delivery, provision of maintenance fluids for individuals with limited or no enteral nutrition, blood pressure management, and facilitation of increased diuresis to mitigate the risk of nephrotoxicity induced by drugs or toxins. This activity discusses the pharmacodynamics, adverse event profile, toxicity, dosing, and monitoring aspects of crystalloid fluids. Participants will be equipped with the knowledge necessary to effectively utilize crystalloid fluids in addressing hypovolemia and related indications.
