Description
Mamoun Swaileh and co-authors published this survey study in 2026 on IV fluids in the West Bank of Palestine. Drips are routine in hospitals, yet wrong use can harm patients. The team asked doctors who treat adults in hospital what they know, think, and do about such fluids. An online form drew 256 replies, most from young male doctors, and few had recent formal training on the topic.
Median knowledge scores sat near fifty-eight percent. Most knew one classic harm of plain saline, but few knew which fluids to shun for routine use. Under half backed balanced fluids over saline for the sickest patients, yet over half still reached for saline first. The top block named was the lack of hospital rules. The authors call for training and clear protocols to close the gaps.
