Abstract

Introduction: The Intravenous fluids that are commonly used for early resuscitation in trauma patients are Isotonic saline and Ringer lactate. A new Intravenous fluid, Plasmalyte has been recently introduced for fluid resuscitation in trauma patients. In our study we compare the effects of commonly used Intravenous fluids such as Plasmalyte, Ringer lactate and Isotonic saline in traumatic patients

Material and Methods: AGE of 18-60 years of either gender admitted to emergency room for resuscitation with HR >120/ minute and Revised Trauma Score of 7-8(4 when weighing factor included). Three fluids Normal saline, Ringer lactate and Plasmalyte in150 adult trauma patients given and then blood, acid base parameters compared and then statistically analysed.

Discussion: Interventional comparative study comparing Normal saline, Ringer lactate and Plasmalyte in150 adult trauma patients of either gender admitted in emergency room in order to find out type of fluid used for fluid resuscitation, has any impact on acid -base balance, blood lactate level, biochemical parameters like blood urea, serum creatinine, serum electrolytes and hemodynamical parameters like Heart rate,spo2 and Revised trauma score.

Conclusion: The trauma patients resuscitated with Plasmalyte was found to have stable and normal acid base status, biochemical parameters and serum electrolyte levels.
