Ringer’s Lactate:
[Isotonic]
pH = 6.5, 274 mOsm/L. Contains Na,
Cl, K, Ca, and lactate. The idea
here is that the concentration of electrolytes is supposed to be same (more or
less) as that in interstitial fluid. This is the stuff that surgeons like the best, they'll keep
it running for days (which is okay).
