Effect of intermittent rehydration therapy as an oral and enteral rehydration solution, alone or in combination with intravenous administration on intravascular dehydration.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of intermittent fluid infusion (intermittent rehydration therapy) to dehydrated elderly patients and the efficacy of Heisei Solution Water (HSW), an oral and enteral rehydration solution developed by our group. Methods: We enrolled 375 elderly patients with suspected dehydration from among 1,921 patients of our [...]

Nutritional problems, overhydration and the association with quality of life in elderly dialysis patients.

PURPOSE: The aim of this pilot study was to describe the hydration and nutritional status of a cohort of elderly dialysis patients and to explore the association between these parameters and the quality of life (QoL). METHODS: All patients over 75Â years of age being in chronic dialysis by January 2008 at 3 dialysis units (nÂ =Â 34) [...]

Does anticipatory sweating occur prior to fluid consumption?

The purpose of this study was to examine if anticipatory sweating occurs prior to fluid consumption in dehydrated subjects. It was hypothesized that there would first be an anticipatory response to the sight of water, and then with drinking, a second response caused by mechanical stimulation of oropharyngeal nerves. Dehydrated subjects (n=19) sat in a [...]

A review of the effects of moisturizers on the appearance of scars and striae.

Scars are well known to have a stratum corneum (SC) that is malfunctional. Increases in transepidermal water loss and decreases in SC capacitance and conductance have been reported. Occlusion therapy is a well-known route to improving the signs and symptoms of scarring. Until recently that has been assumed to be totally pressure related. However, studies [...]

Hydration and cognitive performance.

A clinical link exists between severe dehydration and cognitive performance. Using rapid and severe water loss induced either by intense exercise and/or heat stress, initial studies suggested there were alterations in short-term memory and cognitive function related to vision, but more recent studies have not all confirmed these data. Some studies argue that water loss [...]

The effect of a cold beverage during an exercise session combining both strength and energy systems development training on core temperature and markers of performance.

BACKGROUND: Although studies have investigated the effects of hydration on performance measures, few studies have investigated how the temperature of the ingested liquid affects performance and core temperature during an exercise session. The hypothesis of the present study was that cold water would improve thermoregulation and performance as measured by bench repetitions to fatigue, broad [...]

Hydration assessment using the cardiovascular response to standing.

The cardiovascular response to standing (sit-to-stand change in heart rate; SSÎ”HR) is commonly employed as a screening tool to detect hypohydration (body water deficit). No study has systematically evaluated SSÎ”HR cut points using different magnitudes or different types of controlled hypohydration. The objective of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the often [...]

The emerging role of biomarkers and bio-impedance in evaluating hydration status in patients with acute heart failure.

The quantitative and qualitative estimation of total body fluid content has proven to be crucial for both diagnosis and prognosis assessment in patients with heart failure. The aim of this review is to summarize the current techniques for assessing body hydration status as well as the principal biomarkers associated with acute heart failure (AHF). Although [...]

“The Meaning of Parenteral Hydration to Family Caregivers and Patients With Advanced Cancer Receiving Hospice Care. “

CONTEXT: In the U.S., patients with advanced cancer who are dehydrated or have decreased oral intake almost always receive parenteral hydration in acute care facilities but rarely in the hospice setting. OBJECTIVES: To describe the meaning of hydration for terminally ill cancer patients in home hospice care and for their primary caregivers. METHODS: Phenomenological interviews [...]

Investigating structural brain changes of dehydration using voxel-based morphometry.

Dehydration can affect the volume of brain structures, which might imply a confound in volumetric and morphometric studies of normal or diseased brain. Six young, healthy volunteers were repeatedly investigated using three-dimensional T(1)-weighted magnetic resonance imaging during states of normal hydration, hyperhydration, and dehydration to assess volume changes in gray matter (GM), white matter (WM), [...]
