Antecedentes:
La reanimación hídrica intravenosa es esencial en el manejo de los pacientes hospitalizados, en especial en aquellos con enfermedad aguda o crítica. En la actualidad se proponen cuatro premisas con cuatro indicaciones, cuatro preguntas y cuatro fases para la reanimación hídrica intravenosa.
Objetivo:
El objetivo de esta revisión es dar a conocer esta propuesta de manejo en la reanimación hídrica intravenosa.
Conclusiones:
Estas premisas de reanimación hídrica intravenosa coexisten de manera continua y con una variabilidad observada en el balance hídrico que se da a entender como un proceso dinámico, sin un patrón fijo temporal ni una escala de tiempo, el cual debe ser individualizado según el contexto clínico del paciente.
Background:
Intravenous fluid therapy is essential in the management of hospitalized patients, especially in those with acute or critical illness. It has been proposed four premises, four indications, four questions, and four phases for guidance of this fluid therapy.
Objective:
The objective of this manuscript is to review these new concepts of intravenous fluid therapy.
Conclusion:
These phases of intravenous fluid resuscitation coexist continuously and with a variability observed on fluid balance, is meant as a dynamic process, not as a temporary fixed pattern or a time scale and which must be individualized to the clinical context of patient.
