CLINICIAN'S GUIDELINES<br />
Indications <strong>for</strong> 25% albumin<br />
• Severe Hypoproteinemia in acute nephritic syndrome & acute liver disease<br />
Dosage : Adults 100-400 ml daily<br />
: Children 1.5-6 ml/kg body weight in 24 hrs<br />
• Hyperbilirubinemia in newborn: 5-10 ml of salt poor albumin is given along with blood <strong>for</strong> exchange<br />
transfusion. It binds to excessive bilirubin and reduce incidence of kernicterus.<br />
• Toxemia of pregnancy: 50 ml of salt poor albumin given daily.<br />
Contraindications • Febrile reaction.<br />
• Hypoproteinemia in malnutrition. • Hypotension due to vasoactive substances from<br />
• Chronic nephritic syndrome.<br />
plasma.<br />
• Cirrhosis.<br />
PLASMA SUBSTITUTES<br />
Infection risk<br />
Those designed to provide colloid osmotic pressure<br />
No risk of transmission of viral infections if correctly or expand volume i.e. crystalloid and colloid.<br />
manufactured<br />
Administration<br />
Those able to transport oxygen i.e. perflouro -<br />
compounds and encapsulated hemoglobin.<br />
No compatibility testing required. Colloid Solutions (Table 2.)<br />
No filter required. 1. Dextrans: They are mixtures of polysaccharide<br />
molecules of different molecular weights i.e.<br />
Adverse Effects<br />
Dextran 40 and Dextran 70.<br />
• Urticaria and Anaphylactic reaction.<br />
2. Hydroxyethyl starch 450.<br />
• Circulatory overload.<br />
3. Gelatin.<br />
