  • Treatment of exercise-associated hyponatremia with hypertonic IV infusion to correct plasma sodium levels is also a standard and accepted use of IV fluid infusions
  • athletes who present for medical care with hypernatremia who cannot tolerate oral fluids can benefit from IV fluids
  • Vaporization of sweat accounts for 80% of heat loss in hot, dry atmospheric conditions. This mechanism of water loss is the major contributor for exercise-associated dehydration
  • ...30 more annotations...
  • The rate of water loss can be quantified through measurement of sweat rate
  • Pre- and postexercise body weight measurements are the most common means to estimate overall water loss but are condition specific
  • It appears that 1% to 2% body weight loss is well tolerated by the exercising athlete
  • Dehydration, defined as greater than 2% loss of body weight, can negatively affect performance
  • In highly trained endurance athletes, plasma volume and sodium serum concentration were preserved despite a 5% body weight loss
  • In Ironman triathletes, dehydration to 5% body weight loss did not correlate with occurrence of medical complications
  • hydration should begin hours prior to exercise, especially if known deficits are present, and fluids should be consumed at a slow, steady rate, with 5 to 7 mL/kg taken 4 hours prior to exercise
  • Sodium concentration did not produce significant changes in the rate of absorption but was primarily dependent on carbohydrate concentration
  • Replacing 150% of body weight loss over 60 minutes has been tolerated without complications
  • IV treatment of severe dehydration (>7% body weight loss), exertional heat illness, nausea, emesis, or diarrhea, and in those who cannot ingest oral fluids for other reasons, is clinically indicated
  • A recent survey of the National Football League teams revealed that 75% (24 of 32) of the teams utilized IV infusion of fluids for prehydration in at least some otherwise healthy individuals
  • In the National Football League, an average of 1.5 L of normal saline was administered approximately 2.5 hours prior to competition
  • after 2 hours of exercise, the rectal temperature was 0.6° higher in the group not receiving IV infusion. Also, stroke volume and cardiac output were 11% to 16% lower in the control group versus the IV infusion group.
  • Recent evidence suggests the etiology of EAMC is related to muscle fatigue and neuronal excitability
  • no correlation between hydration status or electrolyte concentrations with EAMC
  • there may be a subset of muscle cramping that is associated with a loss of both body fluid and sodium
  • Glycerol is the primary agent for oral hyperhydration
  • elevation of plasma volume by 200 to 300 mL via dextran infusion resulted in 15% increase in stroke volume, 4% increase in VO2 max, and an increase in the exercise time to fatigue
  • Neither the tonicity nor mode of hydration resulted in improved speed of rehydration, greater fluid retention, or improved performance
  • There are beneficial anecdotal reports of EAMC treatment in elite and professional-level athletes with IV hydration during the course of an event
  • Plasma volume was better restored during rehydration with IV fluids at preexercise and 5 minutes of exercise. At 15 minutes, there was no difference between IV and oral rehydration
  • More rapid restoration of plasma volume was accomplished in the IV treatment group with no advantages over oral rehydration in physiological strain, heat tolerance, ratings of perceived effort, or thermal sensations
  • No difference was found in exercise time to exhaustion. IV and oral rehydration methods were equally effective. Heart rates were statistically higher in the oral rehydration group through 75 minutes of exercise, and there were higher increases in norepinephrine plasma concentrations
  • No significant differences between the groups were found for time to recovery, number of days with pain, number of days with stiffness, sleep disturbance, fatigue, rectal temperature, and loss of appetite
  • The current data suggest that IV rehydration is faster than oral
  • There may be physiological benefits of decreased heart rate and norepinephrine in athletes rehydrated via IV route
  • Postexercise blood 1 hour and 24 hours showed no differences in circulating myoglobin or creatine kinase
  • The use of IV fluid may be beneficial for a subset of fluid sensitive athletes
  • this should be reserved for high-level athletes with strong histories of symptoms in well-monitored settings.
  • Volume expanders may also be beneficial for some athletes

EAMC exercise associated muscle cramps athletes muscle cramps

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 27 Jan 15 - No Cached
  • athletes who develop EAMC often ingest similar amounts of fluid during exercise as do their noncramping counterparts
  • Oral fluid ingestion may be ineffective, and intravenous fluid may provide a faster delivery for athletes suffering from acute EAMC
  • It is interesting that stretching the affected muscle almost immediately relieves EAMC
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • Stretching, the primary treatment for acute EAMC
  • National Athletic Trainers’ Association recommends that athletes prone to muscle cramping add 0.3 to 0.7 g/L of salt to their drinks to stave off muscle cramps
  • Others have recommended adding higher amounts of sodium (about 3.0 to 6.0 g/L) to sports drinks based on the frequency of EAMC
  • intravenous infusion of fluids removes this delay, and it has been used to aid athletes who develop acute EAMC
  • maintaining hydration and adequate electrolyte levels is a good prevention strategy for individuals susceptible to EAMC
  • Fluid volumes of 1.8 L per hour have been well tolerated by tennis athletes who are susceptible to EAMC
  • Monitoring an athlete’s body weight is an easy method of ensuring adequate fluid replacement and individualizes each athlete’s fluid needs
  • the National Athletic Trainers’ Association and the American College of Sports Medicine recommend a volume of fluid that allows for less than a 2% body weight reduction
  • Endurance training may also serve as an effective means of preventing EAMC by expanding plasma volume and the extracellular fluid compartment15 and delaying neuromuscular fatigue
  • Nathan Goodyear on 27 Jan 15
     
    Exercise associated muscle cramps or EAMC is not worked out.  The theories include dehydration, mineral/electrolyte deficiencies, and neuromuscular activity.

  • Proposed mechanism
  • The data show that pharmacologic ascorbate concentrations produced Asc•− selectively in extracellular fluid compared with blood and that H2O2 formation occurred when Asc•− concentrations were >100 nM in extracellular fluid.
  • These data validate the hypothesis that ascorbate is a prodrug for selective delivery of reactive species to the extravascular space
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • pharmacologic ascorbate as a prooxidant drug for therapeutic use.
  • Recently we reported that pharmacologic ascorbic acid concentrations produced H2O2 concentrations of ≥25 μM, causing cancer cell death in vitro
  • We found that H2O2 concentrations generated in vivo were those that caused cancer cell death in vitro
  • When ascorbate was given parenterally, Asc•−, the product of a loss of one electron from ascorbate, was detected preferentially in extracellular fluid compared with blood
  • Asc•− generation in extracellular fluid depended on the ascorbate dose and the resulting concentrations
  • With i.v. administration of ascorbate, Asc•− concentrations were as much as 12-fold greater in extracellular fluid compared to blood and approached 250 nM
  • In blood, such Asc•− concentrations were never produced and were always <50 nM
  • These data are all consistent with the hypothesis that pharmacologic ascorbate concentrations in vivo serve as a prodrug for selective delivery of H2O2 to the extracellular space
  • After oral ingestion, control of intracellular and extracellular ascorbate concentrations is mediated by three mechanisms: intestinal absorption, tissue transport, and renal reabsorption

  • Parenteral administration bypasses tight control
  • When tight control is bypassed, H2O2 forms in the extracellular space
  • in vivo validation of ascorbate as a prodrug for selective H2O2 formation
  • Temporarily bypassing tight control with parenteral administration of ascorbate allows H2O2 to form in discrete time periods only, decreasing likelihood of harm, and provides a pharmacologic basis for therapeutic use of i.v. ascorbate
  • H2O2 formation results in selective cytotoxicity
  • Tumor cells are killed with exposure to H2O2 for ≤30 min
  • In vitro, killing is mediated by H2O2 rather than Asc•−
  • In addition to cancer treatment, another potential therapeutic use is for treatment of infections. H2O2 concentrations of 25–50 μM are bacteriostatic

    study finds IV hydration with glucose and larger volume did not recover as well as those with 100 ml  of IV fluids.  This conclusion is incomplete as the time differences between the 2 groups was significant--group 2 (2.5 L fluid group) finished much faster and studies have shown that these endurance athletes are more prone to dehydration, more significant weight loss, adverse effects from the event.  This likely explains the difference between the 2 groups.
