Intraoperative colloid administration reduces postoperative nausea and vomiting and improves postoperative outcomes compared with crystalloid administration.

An important and long awaited addition to the colloid vs crystalloid
debate. A blinded, adequately powered PRCT that asks a sensible, hypothesis driven question, i.e., Is there a difference in edema related
postoperative complications when colloids are compared to crystalloids? Essential reading for anyone planning a study in this area. Perhaps uneasy reading for the crystalloid only zealots.
