Ringer's lactate solution, or lactated Ringer's solution, is a type of isotonic, crystalloid fluid further classified as a balanced or buffered solution used for fluid replacement. The c ontents of Ringer's lactate include sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and lactate in the form of sodium lactate, mixed into a solution with an osmolarity of 273 mOsm/L and pH of about 6.5.
In comparison, normal saline (NS) has an osmolarity of about 286 mOsm/L. Ringer's lactate is largely used in aggressive volume resuscitation from blood loss or burn injuries; however, Ringer's lactate is a great fluid for aggressive fluid replacement in many clinical situations, including sepsis and acute pancreatitis. This activity outlines the indications, mechanism of action, methods of administration, important adverse effects, contraindications, and monitoring, of Ringer's lactate, so providers can direct patient therapy in treating conditions for which it is indicated as part of the interprofessional team.
