Comparison of Plasma Viscosity Following Administration of Albumin 5% in Half-Normal Saline versus Normal Saline during Minor Surgeries

Background: We aimed to compare the effect of albumin 5% in half normal saline (half NS) versus normal saline (NS) infusion on the plasma viscosity in the near-normal physiological condition. According to the high oncotic pressure of albumin along with prolonged half-life of its molecules in compari...
