ABSTRACT:
A physiologically conforming solution for use in invasive medical procedures which is hypertonic with respect to blood serum and may, in fact, have a higher osmolality than synovial fluid. The solution is of particular utility as an irrigant in arthroscopic surgery in order to reduce the risk of swelling and injury of the synovial tissues and as a therapeutic treatment for swelling and subsequent inflammation of joints and soft tissue which occurs in certain traumatized and pathological states.
