We evaluated the effect of volume expansion and the fluctuation of oxygenation, electrolyte and acid-base balance after 30 min bolus intravenous infusion of 1 liter 6%HES70/0.5(Salinhes®)and lactated Ringer(Solulact®). Seventy-two patients undergoing laparotomy with general anesthesia were randomly divided into a Salinhes® infusion group(n=36)and a Solulact® infusion group(n=36). The volume expansion effects of Salinhes® and Solulact® were 78.4% and 36.8% of infused volume, respectively. Plasma potassium, chloride and bicarbonate ions and base excess fluctuated significantly after Salinhes® infusion. PaO2/FiO2 ratio deteriorated significantly after Solulact® infusion, though there was no significant difference between the groups in the relative variation of oxygenation. In rapid infusion, the volume expansion effects of both Salinhes® and Solulact® can be more than expected. However, attention should be paid to the electrolyte and acid-base balance disturbance after Salinhes® infusion and the deterioration of oxygenation after Solulact® infusion.
