Angiotensin II (ANG II) is a potent vasoconstrictor and may reduce renal blood flow (RBF), causing renal hypoxia. Hypotensive hemorrhage elevates plasma ANG II levels and is associated with increased risk of acute kidney injury. We hypothesized that ANG II antagonism prevents renal vasoconstriction and hypoxia caused by hemorrhage.

Background: Albumin and mannitol may interfere with hemostasis, but their coinfluence is unclear. We aimed to determine the effects of albumin alone and in combination with mannitol or Ringer acetate (RAC) on hemostasis in crossover in vitro study.
Materials And Methods: From citrated fresh whole blood withdrawn from 10 volunteers, we prepared 2.

Mannitol is administered to decrease the intracranial pressure and to improve surgical conditions during craniotomy. Simultaneously a crystalloid infusion is always given and sometimes hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is indicated for intravascular volume replacement. As normal coagulation profile is required during craniotomy, we aimed at determining the effect of mannitol with or without HES or Ringer acetate on blood coagulation in this randomized cross-over in vitro study.

Hydroxyethyl starch 120 (HES 120/0.7, Plasmafusin) is the smallest medium molecular weight HES preparation used as a plasma substitute for all clinical purposes. We compared the volume and colloid osmotic effect of 6% HES 120 with 6% dextran 70 and Ringer's solution during and after surgery with minimal blood loss.

Normal saline, isotonic glucose and Ringer acetate from four different manufacturers were investigated. Agitation resulted in an increased concentration of EVO and DEHP.
