IMO the short answer on how/why the Solus work has to do with charges(electrolyte solution) keeping the heart moving. Has to do with the ions. I struggle with the names of this stuff.A bag of Saline has so little salt it doesn't seem like it would conduct electricity well. I really don't know the amount in the GC but I bet its higher.

To me the steroid part of it would make the heart beat harder when its wanting to quit.?


But hellyeah, Solus would seem beneficial to a dog thats really in shock. In my minds eye I see the IV fluids as the oil and the GC as the gasoline/alcohol in an engine. Both totally necessary.

Ive gotta test tomorrow on solutions so maybe I can come up with something coherent and not totally off base
