As a subject matter expert in medical solutions, I can clarify that D5W and 5% Dextrose are indeed the same thing. D5W stands for Dextrose 5% in Water, which is a medical solution used for various purposes, including fluid and electrolyte replacement, and as a diluent for medications. It is a hypotonic solution, meaning it has a lower solute concentration than body cells, which allows it to be used to hydrate patients without causing fluid overload.

The most common solution that I use for giving "water" is D5 and 1/2 NS which is kind to erythrocytes and feeds the brain at the same time. The 1/2 NS adds water but isn't as hypotonic as D5W.read more >>+119962023-04-12 14:02:56
