Sodium Chloride 0.9% Salf is a physiological solution contained in a 2000 ml PVC bag, commonly used in the medical field for multiple therapeutic and clinical support purposes. This solution, characterized by its purity and safety, is ideal for parenteral hydration and for the preparation of drugs for intravenous administration, offering a sterile and isotone medium that restores and maintains the body's water and salt balance.
The 2000 ml PVC bag guarantees ease of use and transport, as well as simple and safe management during infusion procedures. Thanks to its composition of 0.9% sodium chloride, this solution is compatible with the human body, particularly suitable for the treatment of dehydration, for washing, and as a vehicle for other drugs. It is an indispensable product in hospital, outpatient and emergency settings, appreciated for its effectiveness and practicality.
Being a simple but fundamental electrolyte solution, Sodium Chloride 0.9% Salf finds transversal applications in various medical specialties, promoting the maintenance of hydro-saline balance without altering the natural physiological functions of the organism.
Therapeutic Indications
Sodium Chloride 0.9% Salf is indicated for multiple therapeutic uses in medicine and healthcare. It is mainly used for the restoration and maintenance of hydration and electrolyte balance in patients with body fluid volume deficits. Its isotonic composition makes it ideal for intravenous infusions in both adult and pediatric patients, as it does not alter the osmolarity of body fluids and prevents electrolyte imbalances.
It is used as a dilution solution or vehicle for the administration of injectable drugs, ensuring compatibility and stability. In addition, it is used for washing and irrigating wounds, cavities and organs during surgery and diagnostic procedures, promoting cleansing without irritation. Sodium Chloride 0.9% is also indicated in case of fluid loss caused by vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating or clinical conditions such as hypovolemic shock, providing essential support in maintaining cardiovascular and renal function.
Its therapeutic versatility makes it a fundamental component in emergency and intensive care protocols, where rapid and safe management of hydration and electrolytes is crucial for the success of treatment and patient stabilization.
Composition
The solution contains 0.9% Sodium Chloride, a chemical compound essential for the osmotic balance of the human body. Each 100 ml of solution contains 0.9 grams of sodium chloride, which corresponds to an isotone dosage with human plasma, ensuring safety and compatibility during intravenous infusion.
The solution is prepared in sterile conditions to avoid microbial contamination and guarantee the integrity of the product. The 2000 ml PVC bag is designed to maintain the quality of the solution, preventing chemical or physical interactions that could alter its properties. The material of the bag ensures resistance, flexibility and safety in clinical use, facilitating continuous and controlled administration of the fluid.
In addition to sodium chloride, the solution contains no other additives or preservatives, making it safe for use even in patients with allergies or particular sensitivities. This pure and simple composition makes it versatile and suitable for many medical applications.
Contraindications
The use of Sodium Chloride 0.9% solution is contraindicated in cases of known hypersensitivity to the active ingredient or to the components of the bag and infusion device. It is also contraindicated in clinical situations requiring the use of hypo- or hypertonic solutions or where excess chloride may worsen conditions such as hypernatremia, severe congestive heart failure, or pulmonary edema.
It must not be administered in cases of body fluid overload or electrolyte disorders that cannot be corrected with saline solution, as it could aggravate the electrolyte balance. Furthermore, use is not recommended in patients with conditions of undiagnosed metabolic acidosis and in the presence of hypertension or renal failure without adequate monitoring.
