Abstract:
Different preparations of Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) each have unique molecular weight, degree of substitution and manner of substitution, which are responsible for their intravascular volume expansion and half-life. HES solutions have notable effects on ameliorating hemodynamic and hemorrheological parameters, as well as unique capacity to prevent and reduce capillary leak. Compared with other colloid solutions, HES is more effective, safe and economical. It is an ideal volume expander.
