title: [The content of calcium and magnesium in official Soviet solutions used in extracorporeal circulation, anesthesia and resuscitation].
abstract: Total calcium (CaT) and total magnesium (MgT) levels have been determined in 21 solutions used in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery and manufactured in the USSR. It has been found that a great number of solutions differ in CaT content from human plasma. Some solutions contain Ca, which is not required by the prescription. Even in one and the same lot solutions vary greatly in Ca content (gelatinol). A large number of the solutions tested does not correspond to blood in MgT content, either. Like Ca, this parameter is quite unstable. Such differences in CaT and MgT levels practically in all standard Soviet-made solutions make it impossible to determine accurately precise amount of the solution required. The optimal way of hypercalcemia and hypermagnesiuemia prevention is the elaboration of the solutions identical to blood in their Ca and Mg content, or the use of colloids, practically free of electrolytes (hexaethyl starch).
