Disease/Condition Glossary
Fluid replacement after trauma: Blood volume loss could occur as a result of trauma such as an injury or severe burns. Uncontrolled post-traumatic bleeding is the leading cause of possibly preventable death among injured patients. Fluid resuscitation aids in the restoration of lost blood volume, tissue perfusion, and the reduction of mortality in trauma patients.
