Subcutaneous infusions of fluid and electrolytes can be used for replacement and correction of imbalance, by a method known as hypodermoclysis (HDC). Since April 1982, the Palliative Care Unit of the Edmonton General Hospital has been using this method for symptom control, titrating the rate of infusion against the severity of the symptoms, when the oral route was no longer available. If incompatible drugs have to be given at the same time, or if two drugs have to be given at different rates, two sites are used simultaneously. HDC is an adequate method of symptom control for terminal patients; it has advantages over intravenous, intermittent subcutaneous or intramuscular routes and rectal infusion, when used as described.
通过一种称为皮下输液法（HDC）的方法，皮下输注液体和电解质可用于补充和纠正失衡。自1982年4月以来，埃德蒙顿总医院姑息治疗科一直在使用这种方法控制症状，当口服途径不再可行时，根据症状的严重程度调整输注速度。如果必须同时给予不相容的药物，或者如果两种药物必须以不同的速度给药，则同时使用两个部位。皮下输液法是终末期患者控制症状的一种适当方法；按照所述使用时，它比静脉内、间歇性皮下或肌肉内途径以及直肠输注具有优势。
