Description and Uses
Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is a synthetic colloid that consists of hydroxyethylated polymers of glucose, derived from amylopectin. It is one of the most frequently used plasma substitutes. HES products are approved for the treatment of hypovolemia (low blood volume).
Hydroxyethyl starch, commonly known as Hespen, is a synthetic colloid volume expander, mainly used for first aid in patients with hemorrhagic shock, traumatic shock, and burn shock. Its characteristic is that it is not restricted by blood type. An intravenous solution of hydroxyethyl starch is used to prevent shock following severe blood loss caused by trauma, surgery, or other problems.
