English to Portuguese translations [PRO] Medical - Medical (general) | | English term or phrase: fluid rebound effect | | A fluid rebound effect can take place if patients limit their fluid intake while taking a prescribed diuretic. The body adjusts to fluid limitation by decreasing extracellular fluid and therefore decreasing GFR. Compensation for this by stimulating the RAAS can increase the retention of fluid. Patients need to be taught not to severely limit fluids while taking diuretics. |
