At a glance
Ocular Irrigating Solution (Calcium Chloride + Magnesium Chloride + Potassium Chloride + Sodium Chloride + Sodium Acetate + Sodium Citrate) is a sterile solution used as an extraocular and intraocular irrigating solution during various ocular surgical procedures involving perfusion of the eye with an expected maximum duration of less than 60 minutes.
Indications
- Extraocular and intraocular irrigation during ocular surgical procedures (< 60 minutes)
Pharmacology
Calcium Chloride prevents or treats negative calcium balance and regulates action potential excitation threshold to facilitate nerve and muscle performance. Potassium Chloride is a major cation of intracellular fluid, playing an active role in nerve impulse conduction and muscle contraction. Sodium Chloride is the major extracellular cation important for electrolyte and fluid balance. Sodium Acetate is an alternate source of bicarbonate by metabolic conversion in the liver. Sodium Citrate alkalinizes urine and binds with urinary calcium.
Dosage
Adults and Children: This irrigating solution should be used according to the standard format for each surgical procedure.
Note: Expected maximum duration is less than 60 minutes.
Side effects
