Description

Plasmalyte A is a balanced, multi-electrolyte intravenous solution designed to mimic the ionic composition of human plasma. This product is critical for maintaining physiological pH and electrolyte balance during fluid resuscitation and replacement therapy. It is an essential pharmaceutical-grade solution for hospitals, clinics, and compounding pharmacies, primarily used in surgical, critical care, and emergency medicine settings.

Application

• Intravenous Fluid Replacement: Primary solution for restoring intravascular volume and correcting electrolyte imbalances in hypovolemic patients.
• Surgical Irrigation & Fluid Management: Used during major surgical procedures to maintain hemodynamic stability and electrolyte homeostasis.
• Critical Care & Emergency Medicine: Standard therapy in ICUs and ERs for patients with severe dehydration, burns, or sepsis.
• Renal Replacement Therapy: Serves as a replacement or dialysate fluid in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for patients with acute kidney injury.
• Pediatric & Neonatal Care: Formulated for use in pediatric populations where precise electrolyte management is crucial.
• Compounding Base Solution: Used as a sterile vehicle for the preparation of customized IV admixtures in hospital pharmacies.
