[Assay of protein and thyroid hormone concentrations in hemofiltrate (author's transl)].

To assess protein and thyroid hormone loss during hemofiltration estimation of protein and thyroid hormone concentrations in the hemofiltrate were carried out. The protein loss during one week amounted to 4-6 g. Weekly loss of T4 was about 1,5 microgram, that of T4 0,5 microgram. These quantities are negligible and of no clinical relevance. Therefore substitutions of protein loss by albumin or thyroid hormones do not seem to be required in patients undergoing hemofiltration.

[Incompatibility reactions following the infusion of colloidal volume substitutes during anesthesia].

A case of incompatibility reaction after Macrodex infusion during anesthesia is reported. The possibility of activating the so-called "alternative pathway" by dextran is shown. The early recognition of this reason for incompatibilities may help to prevent the development of severe, possibly fatal forms of dextran incompatibility. Strict observation of the patient during, especially at the beginning of the infusion and an exact recognition of the symptoms are necessary if dextran infusions are applied.
