Haemaccel I.V 500ML

Composition

Polygeline 3.5% w/v (cross-linked gelatin polymer) in electrolyte solution; typically contains sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride (strengths vary by label)

Uses of Haemaccel I.V 500ML

Plasma volume expansion in hypovolaemia/shock due to blood or plasma loss (e.g., trauma, surgery, burns), peri-operative volume replacement when crystalloids are inadequate

• •Rapid plasma volume expansion
• •Supports blood pressure in hypovolaemia
• •Helps maintain circulation during surgery/trauma
• •Useful when crystalloids alone are insufficient

How it works

Polygeline is a colloid plasma expander that increases intravascular oncotic pressure and expands circulating plasma volume. This improves venous return and blood pressure, helping restore perfusion during acute volume depletion.

Directions for use

For intravenous infusion only; administer under medical supervision with dose and rate based on clinical status (blood loss, haemodynamics, urine output). Can be given through standard IV set; monitor vitals and signs of fluid overload; not a substitute for blood when oxygen-carrying capacity is required.
