Meanings of synthetic colloid in inglés

Data on national albumin and synthetic colloid use was sought from independent intensive care researchers and albumin issuers.

Volumes of synthetic colloid supplied per 10,000 persons were calculated.

Background: Hydroxyethyl starches (HES) are synthetic colloids commonly used for fluid resuscitation, yet controversy exists about their impact on kidney function.

Between 1995 and 1999 albumin use decreased and has been materially constant since; where data were available, use of synthetic colloids increased.
