During major surgical procedures, intravascular volume is maintained with the administration
of isotonic fluids such as Lactated Ringers (LR), Normal Saline (NS) or Normosol-R. All three
of these fluids are in common clinical use for this purpose. As large volumes of NS may
result in a dilutional acidosis and an increasing base deficit, it may cloud clinical
decision making when resuscitative efforts are guided by acid-base status on routine arterial
blood gas analysis. This is a prospective, randomized study to evaluate changes in acid-base
and electrolyte (sodium, potassium, calcium) status with the use of various isotonic fluids
for intraoperative resuscitation.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Major surgical procedure requiring arterial access

Exclusion Criteria:

- Comorbid disease process that contraindicates the use of any 1 of the 3 crystalloid
solutions.
