natural colloid
name/class plasmanate
plasma protein fraction
natural colloid
description
plasma protein fraction
plasmanate
plasmanate is a protein containing colloid that remains in the intravascular compartment. it increases intravascular by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of it’s colloid osmotic pressure
indications
plasma protein fraction
plasmanate
hypovolemic shock
especially burn shock
hypoproteinemia(low-protein states)
name/class dextran
dextran
artificial colloid
description
dextran
dextran is a sugar containing colloid used as an intravascular volume expander. it remains in the intravascular compartment for approximately 12 hours. it increases intravascular volume by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of it’s colloid osmotic pressure,
indications
dextran
hypovolemic shock
name/class hetastarch
hespan
artificial colloid
name/class Hespan
Hetastarch
artificial colloid
description
hetastartch
hespan
hetastartch is a starch containg colloid used as an intravascular volume expander following administration the plasma volume is expanded slightly in excess of the volume of hetastartch administered. this effect has been observed for up to 24-36 hours. Hetastartch increases intravascular volume by virtue of it’s colloid osmotic pressure
indications
hetastartch
hespan
hypovolemic shock, especially burn shock, septic shock
