Hydration | Intensive Care Society

How do we maintain hydration in a way which is both safe and comfortable for the patients we treat? What about the post-surgical patient who is full of salt and water but tells us they are thirsty? How can we allow patients to hydrate themselves? Presented by Desiree Chappell with Monty Mythen and their guests Professor Hugh Montgomery, Intensive Care Society Board Member and Professor of Cardiovascular Genetics and Critical Care University College London and Fintan Hughes, Academic Intern at St. James's Hospital Dublin.
