title: Fluid and electrolyte management and blood product usage.
abstract: Traditionally, the majority of oral and maxillofacial surgery patients are young and healthy. With the ever-expanding scope of the specialty, however, more surgically extensive procedures increasingly are being performed on more medically complex patients. To optimize comprehensive patient care, oral and maxillofacial surgeons are obligated to possess a firm knowledge of the basic principles of fluid management and use a sound strategy for blood product usage.
