Because albumin is sometimes in short supply and is currently more costly than artificial colloids, control of its overuse has significant clinical and economic ramifications for hospitals. In an effort to optimize the use of albumin, several societies of anesthesiologists and intensive care physicians have developed guidelines based on the currently available literature, demonstrating therapeutic equivalence between artificial colloids and albumin in many clinical situations. The impact of these guidelines has been a subject of debate since observational studies were conducted to characterize the use of albumin and artificial colloids and to dete
