Hypertonic saline refers to any saline solution with a concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) higher than physiologic (0.9%). Commonly used preparations include 2%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 23% NaCl.

The pressure changes are not prevented by vagotomy, deafferentation of the carotid body and sinus, adrenalectomy, or parasympathetic blockade. The blood pressure effects are interpreted as resulting ...

YOUNES RN et al. - Hypertonic/hyperoncotic solution in hypovolemic patients: experience in the emergency room. Rev. Hosp. Clín. Fac. Med. S. Paulo 57(3): 2002. Hypertonic solutions have been studied ...

Abstract: This paper aims to evaluate the sustainable effect of hypertonic saline solution in Guyton's closed loop model. A model involves the correlation of mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate ...

THE application of hypertonic solutions speeds the appearance of clinical signs of cellular dehydration in proportion to the impermeability of the cellular membrane. Intravenous infusion of ...

is the first-line treatment for hypertonic dehydration. This involves drinking an oral solution that contains adequate levels of sodium, potassium, and glucose to help maximize fluid absorption. In ...

In science, people commonly use the terms "hypertonic" and "hypotonic" when describing the concentration of solute particles in solutions. But what exactly is the difference when it comes to ...

We also described the relationship between electrolyte disturbances and COVID-19 infection. Although there is still a lack of clinical trials, hypertonic NaCl solutions have marked effects on ...
