Administration of low and high MW dextrans in the initial phase of shock is no longer controversial. The special conditions in newborns were insufficiently considered in planning therapy. This investigation aimed at determining the biological half-lives [t1/2] of dextran 40 (Rheomacrodex) and dextran (Macrodex) in this age group. The t1/2 of dextran 40 was 60 min and that of dextran 60 3 h. Preterm babies and newborns excreted up to 25% less dextran 40 and 60 in 24 h than infants and adults. Normal adult values for excretion were only reached towards the end of the 1st yr of life.
