| Abstract |
Microcirculatory alterations are frequently observed in critically ill patients undergoing major surgery and those who suffer from trauma or sepsis. Despite the need for adequate fluid administration to restore microcirculation, there is no consensus regarding optimal fluid therapy for these patients. The recent recognition of the importance of the endothelial glycocalyx layer in capillary fluid and solute exchange has largely changed our views on fluid therapy in critical illness. Given that disease status largely differs among critically ill patients, fluid therapy must not be considered generally, but rather tailored to the clinical condition of each patient. This review outlines the current understanding of context-sensitive volume expansion by fluid solutions and considers its clinical implications for critically ill patients. The modulation of capillary hydrostatic pressure through the appropriate use of vasopressors may increase the effectiveness of fluid infusion and thereby reduce detrimental effects resulting from excessive fluid administration. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 21. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 June 2021.
All research outputs
#1,784,125
of 25,380,089 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Intensive Care
#89
of 578 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#28,990
of 314,349 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Intensive Care
#3
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,380,089 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 578 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 13.9. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 314,349 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
