BACKGROUND: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was recently published in BMC Surgery that compared the use of human albumin with 6% hydroxyethyl starches 130/0.4 for cardiopulmonary bypass prime and perioperative fluid management in pediatric and adult cardiac surgery patients. The two plasma expanding solutions are described as equivalent for efficacy and safety outcomes, and, on that basis, the preferential use of hydroxyethyl starches 130/0.4 was recommended for economic reasons because of the higher unit costs of human albumin solutions...

Background: The mortality of trauma combined with seawater immersion is higher than that of land injury, however, research on how to treat this critical case and which treatments to adopt is lacking. Methods: The effect of the thiol compound, N-acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC), on survival, acidosis, coagulopathy, vital signs, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial and multi-organ function was assessed in a rat model of hemorrhagic shock combined with seawater immersion (Sea-Shock)...

Background and Aims: Colloids modify the vascular endothelium and prevent contact activation of various substances. Pre-administration of colloids may prevent contact activation of vascular endothelium by propofol. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 pre-administration on propofol injection pain. Methods: Adult patients of the American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II patients, 18-65 years old, of either gender and undergoing elective surgery were randomised into two groups...

Background: Doctors often use a small dose of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 sodium chloride solution in the emergency room; however, its effect on kidney function remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a small dose of HES130/0.4 sodium chloride solution on kidney function in shock patients during early fluid resuscitation. Methods: This cohort study retrospectively analyzed the data of 129 shock patients requiring fluid resuscitation who had been admitted to the Emergency Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2019 to December 2020...

OBJECTIVE: Colloid solutions are commonly used to maintain perioperative fluid homeostasis. In regard to perioperative infant-centered care, data about the impact of colloids are rare. New data suggest a possible positive effect of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) concerning blood brain barrier. Therefore we conduct a retrospective single center study of children scheduled for neurosurgery, age < five with a blood loss > 10% of body blood volume, receiving either 6% HES 130/0...

OBJECTIVE: To compare the impact of an IV bolus of hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 (HES) or hypertonic saline 7.5% (HS) on hemostasis in dogs resuscitated for gastric-dilation-volvulus (GDV). DESIGN: Open-label, parallel-group randomized clinical trial. ANIMALS: Twenty-three client-owned dogs. INTERVENTIONS: Dogs affected by GDV and shock were randomly assigned to receive HES at 10 mL/kg or HS at 4 mL/kg every 15 minutes...

In veterinary medicine, investigations relating the effects of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) on renal function report contrasting results. This study aimed to assess the changes in the selected biomarkers of kidney injury in dogs after the administration of HES 130/0.4 as a constant rate infusion (CRI) for 24 h. Ten adult client-owned dogs with hypoalbuminemia (albumin < 2 g/dL) and ongoing fluid losses were included. Enrolled dogs received intravenous fluid therapy with crystalloids and a CRI of HES 130/0.4 at a dose of 2 mL/kg/h for 24 h...

BACKGROUND: Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is used to reduce the risk of peri-operative allogeneic blood transfusion. Although crystalloid and/or colloid solutions have been used for volume replacement during ANH, no studies have examined the differences among solutions on the volume status, electrolytes, acid-base balance, and hemodynamic status during surgery with ANH. METHODS: We retrospectively compared the effect of Ringer's lactate with 3% dextran-40 (Saviosol®, DEX group) and 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0...

BACKGROUND: Fluid administration is a key tool in the maintenance of normovolemia in patients with cardiac surgery. The trials that evaluated the safety of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 in cardiac surgical patients were inconsistent. It is necessary to compare the efficacy and safety of albumin and 6% HES (130/0.4). METHOD: We searched for the randomized controlled clinical trials that compared human albumin with 6% HES (130/0.4) in cardiac surgery in PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase...

BACKGROUND: Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass induces a profound inflammatory response that, when severe, can lead to multiorgan system dysfunction. Preliminary data suggest that administration of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions may mitigate an inflammatory response and improve pulmonary function. Our goal was to examine the effect of 6% HES 130/0.4 versus 5% human albumin given for intravascular plasma volume replacement on the perioperative inflammatory response and pulmonary function in patients undergoing cardiac surgery...

Background Infusion of crystalloids fluid replacement therapy tends to cause a greater expansion of intravascular volume. However, colloids can affect blood coagulation leading to greater blood loss and transfusion requirements. This study compared the intraoperative and postoperative blood loss with Ringer's lactate (RL) versus 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 as infusion fluid during cardiac surgery. Methods Eighty adult male and female patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery were randomly assigned to receive either RL or 6% HES 130/0...

BACKGROUND: Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130 is a frequently used fluid to replace intravascular losses during surgery or trauma. In the past years, several trials performed in critically ill patients have raised questions regarding the safety of this product. Our aim in this meta-analysis was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 6% HES during surgery and in trauma. METHODS: This systematic review and meta-analysis was registered at PROSPERO (CRD42018100379). We included 85 fully published articles from 1980 to June 2018 according to the protocol and three additional recent articles up to June 2020 in English, French, German, and Spanish reporting on prospective, randomised, and controlled clinical trials applying volume therapy with HES 130/0...

Protecting the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a potential strategy to treat cerebral ischaemic injury. We previously reported that hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch 40 (HSH) treatment alleviates brain injury induced by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). However, other fluids, including 20% mannitol (MN), 3% hypertonic sodium chloride (HTS) and hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 solution (HES), have the same effect as HSH in cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion injury (CI/RI) remains unclear. The present study evaluated the protective effects of these four fluids on the BBB in tMCAO rats...

BACKGROUND: Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions increase the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) for medical indications. We conducted a cohort study to evaluate the renal safety of modern 6% HES solutions in high-risk patients having cardiac surgery. METHOD: In this multicentre prospective cohort study, we recruited 261 consecutive patients at high-risk for developing cardiac surgery-associated AKI, based on a Cleveland score ≥ 4 points, from July to December 2017th in 14 hospitals in Spain and the United Kingdom...
