@marciamcdougall@Fluid_Academy #IFAD2017 Great that there is now work happening with maintenance fluid. We haven't seen low Na as a problem in 5 yrs of using 0.18%NaCl/4%glucose/KCl but are doing a retrospective biochemical study on it.

A positive study - that has been a while! #balanced #crystalloids for intravenous #fluid administration result in a lower rate of composite outcome (death , new #RRT, or persistent renal dysfunction) than the use of #saline nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
