Brief Summary:
The proposed study will focus on anesthesia and anesthesia-induced hypotension as a possible cause for postoperative fluid retention and hyponatremia, and investigate gender differences in this response.
Detailed Description:
30 healthy women and 30 healthy men, who are scheduled for surgery of the middle ear or parotic gland are included in the study. Within each gender group, the subjects are randomized to receive perioperative intravenous fluid regimes either based on body weight or lean body mass (LBM). The surgery lasts for at least 3 hours, the intervention period (fluid administration according to protocol) will last 10-12 hours, the study period will be 20-24 hours.
