[Water-electrolyte balance in patients during operation on the aorto-femoral segment using various types of
Klinicheskaia Khirurgiia
|January 1, 1991
Abstract:
The indices of aqueous-electrolyte metabolism in patients, who underwent the reconstructive operations on the aorta, were studied. In patients with concomitant diabetes mellitus, a method of choice for anesthesia is an epidural anesthesia, with ischemic heart disease--combined epidural anesthesia. The most severe changes in electrolyte metabolism were noted after restoration of blood flow in blood loss of more than 10 ml/kg, under conditions of epidural anesthesia these shifts are less pronounced.
