    AbstractThe range of intravenous fluids available for therapeutic use and the differing indications are diverse. A solid understanding of the composition of different types of fluids is essential to understanding the physiologic effects following administration and the appropriate clinical application. In this review, the authors describe the different fluids commonly available and discuss the potential benefits and harms depending on the clinical circumstances. Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Inc.
