Prudent administration of fluids helps restore or maintain hemodynamic stability in the setting of perioperative blood loss. However, fluids may arguably exacerbate the existing coagulopathy. We sought to investigate the influence of balanced crystalloid and synthetic gelatine infusions on coagulation and fibrinolysis in healthy volunteers. This prospective randomized crossover study included 25 males aged 18-30 years. Infusions performed included 20 mL/kg of a balanced crystalloid solution (Optilyte ® ) or 20 mL/kg of gelatine 26.500 Da (Geloplasma ® ) in a random order over a period of 2 weeks. Laboratory analysis included conventional coagulation parameters and rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) assays. We confirmed a decrease in fibrinogen concentration and the number of platelets, and prolongation of PT after infusions. Compared to baseline values, differences in the ROTEM assays' results after infusions signified the decrease in coagulation factors and fibrinogen concentration, causing impaired fibrin polymerization and clot structure. The ROTEM indicator of clot lysis remained unaffected. In the case of both Optilyte ® and Geloplasma ® , the results suggested relevant dilution. Gelatine disrupted the process of clot formation more than balanced crystalloid. Infusions of both crystalloid and saline-free colloid solutions causing up to 30% blood dilution cause significant dilution of the coagulation factors, platelets, and fibrinogen. However, balanced crystalloid infusion provides less infusion-induced coagulopathy compared to gelatine.
