    Study Notes

    • Maintenance intravascular fluid volume should not be increased postoperatively if hypovolemia is suspected. Ongoing losses should be identified and treated separately.
    • Oral fluid intake increase should lead to proportionate reduction in maintenance fluid. Replacement of losses should be based on measured amounts and assessment of volume status.
    • High-risk surgical patients may benefit from goal-directed therapy targeting oxygen delivery postoperatively. Other patients should have fluid status assessed based on clinical examination and physiologic measurements.
    • Electrolytes should be checked daily for monitoring. Fluid requirements should be divided into categories for assessment and treatment.
    • "Pure" maintenance fluid should be salt-poor and contain free water based on weight. Fluid dosing in obesity should consider ideal body weight.
    • Administration of more than 3500 to 5000 mL of crystalloid solution postoperatively may lead to increased morbidity, weight gain, and delayed healing.
    • A restrictive vs. liberal IV fluid regimen study showed no difference in disability-free survival at 1 year but increased surgical site infections and need for renal-replacement therapy in the restrictive group.
