title: [Early fluid therapy for dogs with severe burn-blast combined injury].
abstract: Fifty male mongrel dogs were inflicted with 25% III degree burn combined with moderate blast injury. They were divided into five groups; four treatment groups (with various amounts of infused fluid and sodium) and one control group. Each group consisted of 10 animals. The results indicated that every kind of treatment was effective. However, the regime of crystalloid plus whole blood (infused 8 h after injury) was the best. Generally speaking, fluid therapy should be given carefully. The optimal amount of sodium given was 0.3 mmol.kg-1.1%.BSA-1. The amount of water-2-2.5ml.kg-1% BSA-1. After treatment with the Parkland formula, the pulmonary water content was high, so it is not worth recommending. Continuous measurement of the viscosity of plasma, microhematocrit and the amount of sodium in urine and blood were simple and useful.
