👉 Replace fluid, often used interchangeably with "liquid replacement," refers to a medical solution designed to substitute for lost bodily fluids, such as blood, plasma, or electrolytes. These solutions are typically isotonic, meaning they have a similar concentration of solutes as the body's fluids, ensuring they can be absorbed efficiently without causing adverse effects. Common examples include Ringer's lactate and normal saline, which are used to treat dehydration, blood loss, or electrolyte imbalances. The goal of replacing fluid is to restore proper hydration and electrolyte levels, supporting vital organ functions and overall bodily homeostasis.
