👉 Survival fluid, also known as resuscitation fluid, is a specialized solution used to maintain blood pressure and organ perfusion during medical emergencies when a patient's own blood is insufficient. Typically composed of crystalloids like lactated Ringer's solution or balanced electrolyte solutions, survival fluids help replace lost fluids and electrolytes, ensuring adequate circulation to vital organs. They are crucial in situations like severe hemorrhage, shock, or when a patient is unable to maintain blood pressure on their own. The primary goal of using survival fluids is to stabilize the patient's condition until more definitive treatments, such as blood transfusions or surgical interventions, can be administered.
