Background: Conflicting data exist on the renal effects of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) preparations. The current study evaluates the effects of saline-based 6% HES 130/0.4, 10% HES 200/0.5, and a balanced isotonic crystalloid on renal function and microscopic changes in ovine endotoxemic shock.
Methods: Thirty sheep were subjected to endotoxin infusion (Salmonella typhosa) at incremental doses until mean arterial pressure was less than 65 mmHg. Animals were randomized to receive fluid resuscitation with saline-based 6% HES 130/0.4, 10% HES 200/0.5, or a balanced isotonic crystalloid (n = 10 each). Animals surviving the 12-h intervention period were anesthetized and killed. Kidney samples were taken for microscopic analyses.
Results: Endotoxemia was associated with hemoconcentration, protein extravasation, and arterial hypotension. Fluid resuscitation established a hypotensive-hyperdynamic circulation with increased cardiac index and oxygen delivery and decreased afterload. Diuresis was lowest in animals treated with 10% HES 200/0.5. In addition, plasma creatinine and urea concentrations increased in sheep treated with 10% HES 200/0.5 (1.2 +/- 0.1 and 19 +/- 2 mg/dl) when compared with the other two groups (0.9 +/- 0.1 and 15 +/- 1 mg/dl, 6% HES 130/0.4; 0.9 +/- 0.1 and 15 +/- 1 mg/dl, crystalloids; each P < 0.05). Electron microscopic tubular injury score was highest in sheep treated with 10% HES 200/0.5 (P < 0.001 vs. 6% HES 130/0.4).
Conclusions: In ovine endotoxemic shock, saline-based 10% HES 200/0.5 was linked to impaired renal function and more pronounced tubular epithelial injury when compared with 6% HES 130/0.4 and balanced crystalloids.

Objective: In Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) patients, preoperative bowel preparation and intraoperative fluid restriction may cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. In these patients, laboratory results that are considered "normal" in the pre-anaesthesia clinic may be misleading, and cardiac arrhythmia due to hypokalaemia and hypocalcaemia, as well as problems, such as prolonged non-depolarising blockade and delayed recovery from anaesthesia, may be observed during anaesthesia practice. In this study, we aimed to determine these disturbances by comparing the preoperative (T1) laboratory values with those at the beginning of the operation (T2) and at the 6(th) hour of the operation (T3) and values at discharge.

The basic therapy in stage IIb of peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) according to Fontaine is exercise. The aim of this study was to test whether (given initial physiological hematocrit values of 43 to 46%) a mild hypervolemic to isovolemic to hematocrit values of 40% with HES 200/0.5 10% or Ringer lactate in combination with exercise is even more favorable.
