Description
Chetasorb 6% (Hydroxyethyl Starch, Sodium Chloride) Solution for Infusions 500 ml. №1 Vial
Ingredients
Active ingredients: Hydroxyethyl starch, sodium chloride.
Mechanism of Action
The hydroxyethyl starch in Chetasorb 6% solution acts as a plasma volume expander, increasing blood volume and improving hemodynamic stability. Sodium chloride helps maintain electrolyte balance within the body.
Pharmacological Properties
Chetasorb 6% solution exerts its effects by expanding plasma volume, thereby increasing circulating blood volume and improving tissue perfusion. Sodium chloride contributes to maintaining osmotic balance and proper nerve and muscle function.
Indications for Use
This solution is indicated for intravenous infusion to support blood volume expansion and maintain hemodynamic stability in patients requiring fluid resuscitation or volume replacement due to hypovolemia.
Contraindications
Avoid using Chetasorb 6% solution in patients with known hypersensitivity to hydroxyethyl starch or sodium chloride. Patients with severe renal impairment or congestive heart failure should also avoid this solution due to the risk of volume overload.
Side Effects
Common side effects of Chetasorb 6% solution may include fluid overload, electrolyte disturbances, allergic reactions, and coagulopathy. Monitoring for signs of volume overload and electrolyte imbalances is essential during administration.
Usage Instructions
Administer Chetasorb 6% solution intravenously as directed by a healthcare provider. Dosage should be individualized based on the patient’s clinical status and fluid requirements. Avoid rapid infusion to reduce the risk of adverse effects.
Benefits Compared to Analogues
Chetasorb 6% solution offers the advantage of providing both plasma volume expansion and electrolyte support in a single infusion, making it a convenient option for managing hypovolemia and hemodynamic instability.
Suitable Patient Groups
Chetasorb 6% solution can be used in adult patients requiring volume resuscitation or replacement therapy. It is not recommended for use in pediatric populations due to limited safety and efficacy data in this age group. Caution is advised when administering to elderly patients with compromised renal function.
Storage and Shelf Life
Store Chetasorb 6% solution at controlled room temperature away from light and moisture. Check the expiration date on the vial before use and discard any expired product. Do not freeze the solution.
Packaging Description
Each vial of Chetasorb 6% solution contains 500 ml of the infusion. The packaging is designed to maintain product integrity and sterility until the time of use. Inspect the vial for any signs of damage or contamination before administration.
