Special patient populations such as burn, trauma/surgery, and chronic liver failure have unique needs and pathophysiology not addressed by standard approaches to resuscitation and de-resuscitation. This session will review new and existing literature focused on tailored resuscitation and active de-resuscitation with the aim of improving understanding and patient care.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the role of colloids in the resuscitation of burn patients and strategies for appropriate de-resuscitation
Discuss the role of colloids in the resuscitation of patients with chronic liver failure and identify potential strategies for de-resuscitation
Explain appropriate fluid resuscitation and restriction in trauma and surgery patient populations
