Fig. 1 From: Electrolyte-based calculation of fluid shifts after infusing 0.9% saline in severe hyperglycemiaa Schematic drawing of the model used for the analysis of chloride dilution kinetics. CL is the renal fluid clearance and “Chloride” represents the urinary excretion of chloride ions. b Chloride dilution of the extracellular fluid space (ECF). Open circles are the measured chloride dilutions corrected for the addition of Cl with the 0.9% saline and the connected filled circles the dilution after correction also for urinary losses of chlorideBack to article page
