Patterns of intravenous fluid resuscitation use in adult intensive care patients between 2007 and 2014: An international cross-sectional study

Abstract: BackgroundIn 2007, the Saline versus Albumin Fluid Evaluation—Translation of Research Into Practice Study (SAFE-TRIPS) reported that 0.9% sodium chloride (saline) and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) were the most commonly used resuscitation fluids in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Evidence has emerged since 2007 that these fluids are associated with adverse patient-centred outcomes. Based on the published evidence since 2007, we sought to determine the current type of fluid resuscitation used in clinical practi… Show more

“…6,7 Crystalloid solutions with electrolyte compositions closer to that of plasma (balanced crystalloids, such as lactated Ringer’s solution or Plasma-Lyte A) represent an increasingly used alternative to saline. 8 Several observational studies 6,9,10 and a before-and-after trial 5 suggested that the use of balanced crystalloids is associated with lower rates of acute kidney injury, renal-replacement therapy, and death. However, in two pilot trials, 11,12 no significant difference in any patient outcome was reported between those who received balanced crystalloids and those who received saline.…”

“…Several conversion formulas can be used, the most commonly known for studies of health-care-associated infections is that of Rhame and Sudderth. 3 This formula and the one used by Machado and colleagues require the assumption of the socalled steady state-ie, the number of patients entering and leaving the hospital or ward is balanced at any period. This assumption should be confirmed before reporting incidence and proportions from prevalence studies, and various graphical and formal tests are available to check this assumption.…”

“…It remains difficult to find any consistencies among these published studies [6,7,8,9]. Despite of the controversies, the albumin has been widely used in intensive care unit and surgical settings as the top colloid products for critically ill patients [10].…”
