... contractility and haemodynamic performance [ 17 – 19 ]. In addition, disease chronicity is often associated with anaemia, idiopathic hypovolaemia and dehydration, which can predispose to orthostatic syncopal susceptibility and other autonomic and circulatory deficits [ 20 , 21 ].

...Dan Berndtson; Joel Olsson; Robert G. Hahn High-dose intravenous infusion of 5% glucose promotes rebound hypoglycaemia and hypovolaemia in healthy volunteers. To study whether such effects occur in response to glucose/insulin, 12 healthy firemen (mean age, 39 years) received three infusions over 1...

... the ensuing hypovolaemia is, however, complicated by the decreased endothelium reflection coefficient to albumin and other colloids. We developed PEG–Alb (albumin covalently linked to polyethylene glycol) as a potential resuscitative agent. PEG was covalently linked to human albumin at multiple sites...
