Sodium Chloride 0.9% is a sterile physiological solution contained in a 2000 ml PVC bag, used for various medical and therapeutic purposes. This 0.9% sodium chloride solution is isotonic with body fluids, allowing it to be used safely for fluid and mineral replacement, for drug dilution, or as a carrier solution in various clinical procedures.
The solution is contained in a high quality PVC bag, designed to guarantee maximum product integrity and facilitate administration through standard infusion systems. The 2000 ml capacity makes it suitable for treatments that require large volumes of liquids.
This preparation is free of particles and guarantees excellent tolerability, making it well tolerated even by patients with different clinical conditions. The balanced composition makes it useful for both intravenous hydration and other medical applications, preserving electrolyte balance.
Therapeutic Indications
Sodium Chloride 0.9% is indicated for the reintegration of fluids and electrolytes in patients with dehydration or loss of mineral salts due to various clinical conditions such as vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating, or during surgery. It is widely used in the treatment of states of mild or moderate hypovolemia, as well as in conditions requiring sodium and chloride supplementation.
The solution can also be used as a dilution medium for drugs intended for intravenous infusion, facilitating safe and gradual administration. It is used in hospital, outpatient and emergency settings, where the speed and safety of the infusion are fundamental.
Furthermore, Sodium Chloride 0.9% is part of parenteral rehydration protocols and is used for washing and irrigation in medical procedures, thanks to its isotone and sterile characteristics. The solution does not contain preservatives or other substances that may cause adverse reactions.
It is important to underline that, despite being a product of fundamental importance in the medical field, its administration must take place under strict medical supervision, adapting the dosage and infusion rate to the specific needs of the patient in order to avoid complications such as volume overload or electrolyte imbalances.
Composition
The active ingredient of the solution is sodium chloride (NaCl) at 0.9%, corresponding to 9 grams per liter of solution. This concentration is isotonic with body fluids, ensuring that the solution can be used without altering the osmotic balance of the body's cells.
The solution is prepared with water for injections and everything is contained in a high quality PVC plastic bag which ensures the chemical compatibility and safety of the product. The bag is designed to withstand mechanical handling and transport conditions typical in the healthcare sector.
There are no preservatives, colorings or other excipients that could compromise tolerability or cause allergic reactions in the most sensitive patients. The solution is subjected to rigorous quality controls which guarantee its purity, sterility and absence of particles or contamination.
The 2000 ml package allows use both in hospital settings for prolonged infusion, and in emergency and intensive care situations where rapid replenishment of body fluids is often necessary. The PVC plastic of the bag complies with current regulations for medical devices, ensuring safety and ease of use.
Contraindications
The use of Sodium Chloride 0.9% is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the active ingredient or to any of the excipients present in the solution or in the bag material. Furthermore, its use is not recommended in the presence of hypernatremia or fluid overload, conditions which could worsen following further administration of saline solution.
It should not be used in cases of pulmonary edema or uncontrolled congestive heart failure, as excess fluids can aggravate these conditions. Rapid infusion or high doses in subjects with renal or hepatic insufficiency should be avoided, unless specifically indicated and with careful medical monitoring.
