About

    Fluid therapy is a medical treatment that involves the administration of fluids to a patient to maintain or restore hydration, circulation, and electrolyte balance. This treatment is commonly used in patients who are dehydrated, suffering from shock, experiencing severe burns, undergoing surgery, or suffering from certain medical conditions such as kidney disease or heart failure. Fluid therapy can involve the intravenous or oral administration of fluids such as saline, glucose, and electrolyte solutions. The goal of fluid therapy is to restore and maintain optimal fluid balance in the body to support normal physiological functions and promote recovery.
