👉 High-flow fluids, often referred to as high-volume fluids or high-flow IV solutions, are specialized intravenous (IV) solutions designed to rapidly deliver large volumes of fluids to the body, making them particularly useful in emergency and critical care settings. These fluids typically contain a higher concentration of electrolytes, proteins, and other nutrients compared to standard isotonic solutions like normal saline or Ringer's lactate. The primary goal of high-flow fluids is to quickly restore and maintain adequate blood volume, blood pressure, and organ perfusion, especially in cases of severe dehydration, hemorrhage, or acute heart failure. By providing a rapid influx of fluids, high-flow solutions help stabilize patients and support their physiological functions until they can recover or receive further treatment.
