      The direct effects of plasma expanders in critically ill patients are evaluated using physiologic criteria. In general, colloids improve hemodynamic and oxygen transport, while sodium-rich crystalloids increase arterial pressure and peripheral resistance. Algorithms for the use of various agents in resuscitation and critical illness are proposed.
