Patients with head trama or increased intracranial pressure are particularly susceptible to insufficient or excessive fluid loading. It is therefore with care that fluids are administered and monitored. The choice of fluid is dependent on the other clinical signs of the patient such as haemodynamics. The status of the blood brain barrier is an important consideration in any patient and in the selection of fluid. However, fluids containing glucose should be avoided in these patients.
