Dosage
9.00 g
The amount of fluid depends on the clinical condition.
Overdosage
Overdosage during wound irri­gation and intra-operative ap­plication can lead to absorp­tion of irrigation fluid, that can lead to hypervolaemia in the form of hypotonic hyper­hydration (hyponatraemia). Headache, nausea, restless­ness and disorientation are symptoms of hyperhydration. In severe cases coma-like states can occur.
Countermeasures in cases of overdosage
Discontinuation of irrigation, correction of the water and electrolyte balance depend­ing on the particular clinical situation.
Warnings and precautions
Do not use for infusion. Only use the solution if the seal is undamaged and the solution is clear. Opened containers must not be saved, quantities left over must be discarded. Re-use of single-use devices creates a potential risk of patient or user. It may lead to contami­nation and/or impairment of functional capability. Contam­ination and/or limited func­tionality of the device may
lead to injury, illness or death of the patient. Store out of reach of children. When there is a risk of absorp­tion of larger amounts of the solution, as may be the case when using it in large body cavities or large wound sur­faces, it should not be used in patients in states of hyper­hydration. Under those condi­tions it should be used with caution in patients with
– Hypertonic dehydration, – Hypokalaemia, – Hypernatraemia, – Hyperchloraemia, – Disorders where restriction
of sodium intake is indica­ted, such as cardiac insuffi­ciency, generalised oedema, pulmonary oedema, hyper­tension, eclampsia, severe
renal insufficiency. NaCl 0,9% B. Braun must not be used for intrathecal irriga­tion procedures.
