  • Title: [Clinical experience with the use of gelofusin (gelatin) in anesthesiology, resuscitation and intensive care].
    Author: Eremenko AA, Kuslieva EV.
    Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 2001; (3):58-61. PubMed ID: 11510363.
    Abstract:
    Published reports on the use of colloid plasma substitute gelofusin, widely used in practical anesthesiology, intensive care, and resuscitation, are analyzed. The drug is characterized by positive effects on the hemodynamic status and oxygen-transporting function of circulation, with the minimum side effects. It can be used for blood loss compensation, planned normovolemic hemodilution, afferent procedures, and filling the artificial circulation device. Gelofusin is preferable for use in patients with cardiac failure and marked dehydration. No negative effect on renal function and blood clotting system, even in infusions in high volume, are its positive qualities.
