IFA Talks6th IFAD 2017 - 031 - NIELS VAN REGENMORTELThe sodium conundrum. A conundrum is a riddle, a brain teaser, an enigma. So perhaps a better title for my talk would be: "The Riddle of Salts." I am Niels Van Regenmortel from Antwerp in Belgium and what I’m most passionate about in fluid management today is this: We should be doing much more to avoid excessive sodium administration in hospitalized patients. Why? Because sodium—not just fluid—is a major contributor to fluid overload in our patients. This issue goes beyond the volume of fluids we give—it's also about the sodium c...2025-04-1101 minIFA Talks5th IFAD 2015 - 031 - NIELS VAN REGENMORTELI am Niels Van Regenmortel, internist-intensivist and co-organizer of the IFAD meeting from ZNA Stuivenberg in Antwerp, Belgium. participated in the Pro-Con debate on balanced solutions, and I took the "Can" side. My key message was that, while the evidence supporting balanced solutions may not be as definitive as some believe, these fluids are still perfectly safe—and likely better for kidney function compared to 0.9% saline. So, my advice is: if you can afford to implement balanced solutions economically, then absolutely go for it. What makes the IFAD meeting so important is that it shines a...2025-04-0900 min
IFA Talks2nd IFAD 2012 - 011 - NIELS VAN REGENMORTELI’m Niels Van Regenmortel drom ANtwerp, Belgium, and one of the co-organizers of this wonderful second International Fluid Academy Day together with Manu Malbrain. My talk focused on crystalloids, and I had some good news to share: we're now clearly favoring balanced crystalloids over saline. In recent months, strong clinical data have emerged supporting this shift, which is a significant step forward in fluid therapy. I’m excited to see what the next year brings, but for now, we’re very pleased with this progress and the growing support for balanced solutions.2025-04-0800 minIFA Talks1st IFAD 2011 - 005 - NIELS VAN REGENMORTELI am Niels Van Regenmortel, Internist-Intensivist at ZAS in Antwerp, Belgium. In my lecture, I emphasized that not all intravenous fluids are the same, and understanding their composition is crucial for effective fluid management. Specifically, the lower the strong ion difference of a solution, the lower the pH will be, which can lead to increased acidosis in the patient. This highlights the importance of selecting the right fluid based on the clinical context. Crystalloids, for example, vary significantly in their electrolyte composition and buffering capacity, and need to be carefully balanced to achieve optimal outcomes. Similarly, not all colloids...2025-04-0800 min
