Study objectives	To study the responses of normal volunteers to 1 litre infusions of 0.9% saline and Voluven® over 1 hour. In particular the extent and time course of the effects of the two infusions on haematocrit, serum albumen, serum biochemistry, plasma expanding capacity and the resultant urinary responses will be measured.
Ethics approval(s)	Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied	Effects of Voluven® infusion on plasma volume, serum biochemistry and sodium and water controlling hormones
Intervention	Double blind, randomised crossover study
Intervention type	Drug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
Phase	Not Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)	saline and Voluven®
Primary outcome measure	Difference in effects produced by the two infusions on haemotocrit, serum albumin, chloride, osmolality, AVP, renin, ANP and aldosterone. Differences betwen the infusions will be tested for statistical significance using the Wilcoxon signed ranks test and repeated measures ANOVA. Differences will be considered significant if P<0.05.
