AbstractThis poster has been designed to impart information which was gathered for a seminar as part of an Anaesthetic Nursing Course. It looks at the research which has been compiled on this subject, both in the Nursing and the Medical fields and illustrates the recommendations made by these pieces of research. The poster also depicts the breakdown of fluid compartments in the body and the physiological transference of fluids within the body in times of crisis. There is another section in the poster which explains the differences between certain fluids which are typically used during hypovolaemic resuscitation and the reasons for using these particular fluids. A version of a table designed by the American College of Surgeons, (Advanced Trauma Life Support, ATLS), which is recommended in some of the research on this topic is also shown in the poster and is very useful as a guide to what should happen in the hypovolaemic situation.
