Open randomized trial of the effects of 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4/9 and 5% albumin on safety profile, volume efficacy, and glycocalyx degradation in hepatic and pancreatic surgery

ConclusionHES 130/0.4/9 can be used as safely and effectively as 5% albumin. Glycocalyx degradation did not differ between use of these solutions in major abdominal surgery.
