Abstract

In space and on other planets, the challenges of fluid management for human health, particularly through intravenous (IV) therapy, become significant due to the altered effects of gravity on fluids. Understanding how microgravity and varying gravitational environments impact fluid dynamics in the body and IV administration is essential for medical care in extraterrestrial settings. This paper reviews the effects of gravity on fluids, particularly in space and Martian environments, explores the challenges of IV fluid therapy in zero gravity, and offers potential solutions for managing fluid therapy in these conditions. By combining research from terrestrial fluid management practices and data from space missions, we aim to offer insights into the safe administration of IV fluids in space and beyond.
