    [Warning Words] In adult critically ill patients, including sepsis patients, The use of hydroxyethyl starch increases the risk of: l death l renal replacement therapy For adult critically ill patients, including patients with sepsis, the use of hydroxyethyl starch
    is contraindicated.
    Second, [adverse reactions] In the infusion process, if the patient has an intolerable reaction, the administration should be terminated immediately and appropriate treatment
    should be given.
    Adverse reactions are: very common (1/10 ≥), common (≥ 1/100 and < 1/10), uncommon (≥ 1/1,000 and < 1/100), rare (≥ 1/10,000 and < 1/1,000), extremely rare (< 1/10,000), unknown (available data can not be estimated).

    。 Abnormalities of the blood and lymphatic system According to the literature, B.
    Braun Melsungen AG products are common (dose-related): a decrease in the specific capacity of blood cells, a decrease in the concentration of plasma proteins; Common: dilution of coagulation factors, prolonged bleeding time and aPTT, decreased
    levels of FVIII/vWF complexes.
    Fresenius Kabi Deutschland GmbH products are rare (used in large doses): dose-related coagulation abnormalities
    .
    Immune system abnormalities are rare: allergic /anaphylactoid reactions (allergies, mild flu-like symptoms, bradycardia, tachycardia, bronchospasm, non-cardiac pulmonary edema).

    During the use of this product, if an allergic reaction occurs, the infusion should be stopped immediately and appropriate treatment measures should be taken until the symptoms disappear

    Braun Melsungen AG products are uncommon) Renal and urinary system abnormalities The frequency is unknown: kidney damage
    .
    Hepatobiliary abnormalities the frequency is unknown: liver damage
    .
    Laboratory abnormalities are common (dose-dependent): serum amylase concentrations may be elevated, interfering with the diagnosis
    of pancreatitis.
    Elevated amylase is due to the formation of a complex of amylase with hydroxyethyl starch, which delays the metabolism of amylase and should not be diagnosed as pancreatitis
    .
    When used in high doses, the corresponding blood components such as coagulation factors, plasma proteins, and hematocrit are reduced
    due to the blood thinning effect.
    (According to the literature, this adverse reaction is common in Fresenius Kabi Deutschland GmbH products, B.
    Braun Melsungen AG products are common) There have also been reports of
    anemia, erythrocytopenia, respiratory insufficiency, bleeding after treatment, and bleeding from trauma.

    the first trimester of pregnancy.
    Special care must be taken to avoid hypervolemia caused by overdose leading to pathological hemodilution and fetal hypoxia
    .
    Breastfeeding Is uncertain whether hydroxyethyl starch can be secreted through breast milk and should be used
    with caution in lactating women.
    If you must use this product, you can consider temporarily stopping breastfeeding
    .
    Sixth, [children's medication] The research data on children's medication is limited, and the safety and effectiveness have not been established, so the use of hydroxyethyl starch products in this category of population is
    not recommended 。 A European multicenter prospective post-marketing safety observation study (PASS) was used to evaluate
    children under 12 years of age who were undergoing surgery (n=1130) using Venofundin 6% (6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.
    42 sodium chloride injection) and Tetraspan 6% (hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.
    42 electrolyte injection).
    The safety of
    hydroxyethyl starch use in pediatric patients during surgery was evaluated by possible adverse reactions, acid-base balance, electrolyte and hemoglobin changes.
    No serious or important adverse drug reactions
    directly associated with hydroxyethyl starch were observed.
    The incidence of adverse reactions was dose-related, but it could not be proven to be age-related
    .
    Conclusion: The use of doses up to 20 mL/kg body weight during surgery appears to be safe
    for pediatric patients.
    In one trial, newborns undergoing elective surgery and infants under 2 years of age were randomized to Voluven® (6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.
    4 sodium chloride injection) (N=41) or 5% albumin (N=41).

    The average dose given to Voluven® is 16±9 mL/kg
    .
    In another trial, children aged 2–12 who underwent heart surgery were randomly enrolled in Voluven® (N=31) or 5% albumin (N=30).

    The average dose given to Voluven® was 36±11 mL/kg
    .
    However, medication according to the above data is not recommended
    .
