Daniela Nasu Monteiro Medeiros scite author profile

The studies analyzed did not find evidence to suggest that the use of colloids is superior to crystalloids. In some studies, the fluid volume needed to achieve initial stabilization was smaller in the group given colloids. Crystalloids are the preferred therapeutic option because of their effectiveness, low cost, and wide availability. Colloids may be the first choice in cases of malaria when the central nervous system is affected.
