- W1993674429 abstract "The high chloride content of 0.9% saline leads to adverse pathophysiological effects in both animals and healthy human volunteers, changes not seen after balanced crystalloids. Small randomized trials confirm that the hyperchloremic acidosis induced by saline also occurs in patients, but no clinical outcome benefit was demonstrable when compared with balanced crystalloids, perhaps due to a type II error. A strong signal is emerging from recent large propensity-matched and cohort studies for the adverse effects that 0.9% saline has on the clinical outcome in surgical and critically ill patients when compared with balanced crystalloids. Major complications are the increased incidence of acute kidney injury and the need for renal replacement therapy, and that pathological hyperchloremia may increase postoperative mortality. However, there are no large-scale randomized trials comparing 0.9% saline with balanced crystalloids. Some balanced crystalloids are hypo-osmolar and may not be suitable for neurosurgical patients because of their propensity to cause brain edema. Saline may be the solution of choice used for the resuscitation of patients with alkalosis and hypochloremia. Nevertheless, there is evidence to suggest that balanced crystalloids cause less detriment to renal function than 0.9% saline, with perhaps better clinical outcome. Hence, we argue that chloride-rich crystalloids such as 0.9% saline should be replaced with balanced crystalloids as the mainstay of fluid resuscitation to prevent ‘pre-renal’ acute kidney injury.

Hence, we argue that chloride-rich crystalloids such as 0.9% saline should be replaced with balanced crystalloids as the mainstay of fluid resuscitation to prevent ‘pre-renal’ acute kidney injury. Any rational approach to fluid and electrolyte therapy and volume resuscitation must take into account the evolved mammalian responses to stress, starvation, injury, or infection. These responses preserve the blood supply to essential organs, allowing time for the individual to recover, and activate the host defense and repair pathways. In simple terms, the major evolved responses relevant to fluid management are as follows:•Maintenance of perfusion of the heart, brain, and lungs at the expense of the cutaneous, splanchnic, and renal circulations.•Fluid shifts from the intracellular and interstitial compartments to replenish the depleted vascular compartment.•An increase in systemic vascular permeability allowing proteins such as immunoglobulins and albumin, with their attendant fluid, to move from the vascular space into the interstitial compartment.•Intense sodium and water retention by the kidneys to augment the reduced circulating blood volume. In addition to the evolutionary response to conserve salt and water, the patient’s ability to excrete administered salt and water is also limited by renal compromise and reduced ability to concentrate urine. As a consequence, it requires 2–4 times the normal volume of urine to excrete the sodium and chloride load administered, which competes with excretion of nitrogen resultant from catabolic stress during critical illness, resulting in interstitial edema. Although Evans1Evans G.H. The abuse of normal salt solution.JAMA. 1911; 57: 2126-2127Crossref Scopus (21) Google Scholar commented on the dangers of the reckless way in which salt solutions were prescribed as early as 1911, the clinical effects of salt and water excess have largely been ignored till relatively recently, with continued inappropriate and excessive use of chloride-rich crystalloid infusions, such as 0.9% saline, both within the settings of resuscitation and maintenance. The development of balanced crystalloids highlights the need to reappraise the continued use of 0.9% saline, especially considering the detrimental effects the latter has on renal function. In this debate we argue against the use of this unphysiological crystalloid, more appropriately termed ‘abnormal saline’,2Wakim K.G. ‘‘Normal’’ 0.9 per cent salt solution is neither ‘‘normal’’ nor physiological.JAMA. 1970; 214: 1710Crossref PubMed Scopus (35) Google Scholar,3Reid F.

From the renal perspective, the aim of fluid resuscitation of the hypovolemic patient is to improve renal blood flow, increase glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury (Figure 1). However, the ability of fluid therapy to achieve this aim is dependent on a number of other factors including the type of fluid used and the effects of acute illness, chronic disease, and drugs that may alter determinants of fluid responsiveness. The latter include systemic vascular resistance, myocardial compliance and contractility, regional blood flow distribution, venous capacitance, and capillary permeability.4Prowle J.R. Bellomo R.

Subsequent release of the antidiuretic hormone overrides normal homeostatic mechanisms and leads to further sodium and water retention. Even in the absence of renal impairment, the relationship between fluid input and natriuresis is weak, and the administration of intravenous fluid may lead to salt and water accumulation rather than a diuresis,3Reid F.

On the initial rate of osmosis of blood-serum with reference to the composition of ‘‘physiological saline solution’’ in mammals.J Physiol. 1896; 20: 145-157Crossref PubMed Scopus (12) Google Scholar Hamburger performed experiments on the effects of varying the concentration of salt solutions on erythrocyte fragility.10Hamburger H.J. Koninkl Akad.

It was accepted that the freezing point of human serum was -0.52°C. On the basis of his experiments on erythrocyte fragility and freezing points of mammalian serum, Hamburger concluded that ‘the blood of the majority of warm-blooded animals, including man, was isotonic with a NaCl solution of 0.9 per cent., and not of 0.6 per cent., as was generally thought...and which had always been called the physiological NaCl solution’.11Hamburger H.J.

In a study on anesthetized dogs that had one kidney auto-transplanted to the neck, thereby denervating it, infusion of chloride-containing solutions resulted in hyperchloremia that produced progressive concentration-dependent renal vasoconstriction and a decrease in GFR independent of renal innervation.14Wilcox C.S.

In animals that had 300% replacement of shed blood in 30min, RL provided the best survival rate of 67% (e.g., 50% for saline, 40% for Pl-R, and 30% for Pl-A). The investigators hypothesized that the lower survival rates in animals that were resuscitated with Pl-R and Pl-A may have resulted from the acetate constituent, which may have had differential regional vasodilatory and vasoconstrictive effects in these animals.18Traverso L.W.

Although pH, bicarbonate, and chloride concentrations did not change significantly after Hartmann’s solution, the anion gap decreased (15.2–12.1mmol/l). The volume of fluid replacement in this study34Scheingraber S. Rehm M. Sehmisch C. et al.Rapid saline infusion produces hyperchloremic acidosis in patients undergoing gynecologic surgery.Anesthesiology. 1999; 90: 1265-1270Crossref PubMed Scopus (595) Google Scholar may be considered excessive, but it confirmed that hyperchloremic acidosis accompanied saline infusions in patients. In a study of 30 patients undergoing major surgery, randomly allocated to receive either 0.9% saline or Plasma-Lyte 148 at 15ml/kg/h, those receiving saline had significantly increased chloride concentrations (Δ[Cl−] +6.9 vs. +0.6mmol/l, P<0.01), decreased bicarbonate concentrations (Δ[HCO3−] -4.0 vs. -0.7mmol/l, P<0.01), and increased base deficit (Δ base excess -5.0 vs. -1.2mmol/l, P<0.01) compared with those receiving Plasma-Lyte 148.35McFarlane C.
