Are there risks involved with receiving too much fluid through IV?

Yes, there is a risk of receiving too much fluid through IV therapy, known as fluid overload. This is typically a greater concern for individuals with pre-existing health conditions, such as:

  • Heart Conditions: People with heart failure or weakened heart function are more susceptible to complications if their heart cannot handle the extra fluid.
  • Kidney Issues: If the kidneys cannot adequately filter excess fluids, it can lead to fluid buildup in the body.
  • Elderly Individuals: Older adults may have reduced kidney and heart function, making them more vulnerable to fluid overload.

Signs of Fluid Overload:

  • Shortness of breath
  • Swelling in the legs, feet, or abdomen
  • Rapid weight gain
  • Changes in blood pressure
