Abstract
A method for measuring, adjusting and maintaining the level of blood volume in a patient is described. A blood volume expander composition includes, in combination, a standard unmodified protein, colloid or crystalloid and a fluorescently-labeled protein, colloid or crystalloid of approximately the same molecular weight. The use of blood volume expanders to measure, adjust and maintain the level of blood volume in a patient also is described.
