Abstract
Hypovolemic patients have an array of acute circulatory failure with varied symptoms and hemodynamic consequences of the different organs. The timing of resuscitation is critical, as mortality is directly related to the extent and duration of organ hypoperfusion of those in hypovolemic shock. This paper written by clinician practitioners is intended to give an update on key points about fluid resuscitation of hypovolemic patient: i.e. physiology of fluids compartments, fluids deficit, vital signs, choice of fluids resuscitation and possible complication.
