volume overload

The overall effect of glucocorticoids is to keep the body from volume overload.

New increases in blood pressure may result from abnormal fluid buildup in the body (volume overload).

Red cell transfusions can lead to volume overload when they must be repeated due to insufficient efficacy (see above).

First, the circuitous refluxing of blood causes volume overload on the left ventricle.

Plasma transfusion is especially prone to causing volume overload due to its hypertonicity.

These patients may have coexisting total body volume overload and intravascular volume depletion.

Transfusion-associated volume overload is a common complication simply due to the fact that blood products have a certain amount of volume.

Signs of intravascular volume overload (high blood volume) include:

An inverted U wave may represent myocardial ischemia or left ventricular volume overload.

This goal may be reasonable in certain situations and patients are clearly easier to manage without volume overload and electrolyte imbalances.

Intravascular volume overload can occur during surgery, if water rather than isotonic saline is used to wash the incision.

"lub-dub-ta" or "slosh-ing-in" If new indicates heart failure or volume overload.

A negative value is typical for free water clearance, as the kidney usually produces concentrated urine except in the cases of volume overload by the individual.

Nesiritide promotes diuresis and natriuresis, thereby ameliorating volume overload.

This extra blood from the left atrium may cause a volume overload of both the right atrium and the right ventricle.

The regurgitant volume causes a volume overload and a pressure overload of the left atrium.

These individuals may be sensitive to small shifts in their intravascular volume status, and are prone to develop volume overload (congestive heart failure).

It remains an exceptional method of monitoring volume overload leading to pulmonary edema in an ICU setting.

These include anaphylaxis, volume overload, pulmonary edema, cerebral edema, or platelet dysfunction.

The above model reveals a gradual dilation of the myocardium, especially the ventricular myocardium, to support the blood volume overload in the chambers.

Early diagnosis and treatment of heart-valve abnormalities can prevent CHF caused by chronic volume overload of the heart's left chamber.

In clinical trials involving patients with water volume overload, lixivaptan resulted in correction of hyponatremia together with marked aquaresis.

Concentric hypertrophy is due to pressure overload, while eccentric hypertrophy is due to volume overload.

Aortic insufficiency causes both volume overload (elevated preload) and pressure overload (elevated afterload due to increased stroke volume) of the heart.

If there is increased stroke volume of the left ventricle due to volume overload, an ejection systolic 'flow' murmur may also be present when auscultating the same aortic area.
