Effect of normal saline and half saline preservation serums on sodium levels, blood pressure, and acidosis in PICU patients
Normal saline administration resulted in higher sodium levels and increased systolic blood pressure than H/S administration. These findings underscore the importance of tailored fluid therapy in critically ill pediatric patients, highlighting the potential effects of fluid choice on sodium balance and hemodynamics.
