While in these children albumin infusions can increase intravascular volume, thus improving renal haemodynamics and increasing diuresis, in hypervolemic cases the opposite occurs and hypovolemia can be exacerbated, contributing to hypertension and the risk of causing or worsening pulmonary oedema. Clinical symptoms (hypotension, tachycardia, abdominal pain, headache or dizziness, drowsiness, delayed capillary refill, muscle cramps) and a marked reduction in the fractional excretion of sodium (FENa &lt;0.2) are the evaluation parameters to use in the diagnosis of hypovolemia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2465,"template":"","meta":{"_edit_lock":["1570004483:5"],"_edit_last":["5"],"_wpml_media_duplicate":["0"],"_wpml_media_featured":["0"],"_thumbnail_id":["2465"],"_wpml_word_count":["{\"total\":275,\"to_translate\":{\"it\":275}}"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_eta":[""],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_disciplina":["117"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_tipologia":[""],"wpcf-pacchetto":["SINePe #1"],"wpcf-bibliografia":["1.
