About this study

In this prospective randomized controlled trial, investigators attempt to study the effects of acetated Ringer's solution on the prognosis and renal function of patients with sepsis in intensive care unit compared with normal saline, and provide evidence for current fluid resuscitation strategies for sepsis.

Read the detailed description

During the study period,either normal saline or acetated Ringer's solution will be assigned as resuscitation fluid to the septic patients meeting the inclusion criteria.It is anticipated that about 500 patients will be enrolled during the study period.

Being tested
0.9% saline, lactated Ringer's solution
Keywords

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 0.9% salineDrug

    Also called normal saline

    we use 0.9% saline in ICU patients with sepsis for resuscitation fluid.

  • lactated Ringer's solutionDrug

    Also called Ringer's lactate

    we use balanced balanced crystalloids in ICU patients with sepsis for resuscitation fluid.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Development of kidney injury as defined by the KDIGO criteria.

    Investigators will use the level of creatinine(μmol/L) and body weight adjusted urine(ml/h/kg) for severity assessment of kidney injury

    Measured: 5 days after the admission

  2. Need of renal replacement treatment

    Investigators will assess patients' kidney function everyday

    Measured: After the admission and before the discharge from ICU,average 15 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. ICU stay

    the time of patients' requirement for critical care

    Measured: After the admission and before the discharge from ICU,average 15 days

  2. 28 days mortality

    the short time mortality

    Measured: 28 days after the admission in ICU

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 0.9% saline and lactated Ringer's solution in people with Sepsis and Acute Kidney Injury, run by ZhiYong Peng at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Li He, investigator (008617798258617, helisoul@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Development of kidney injury as defined by the KDIGO criteria. (time frame: 5 days after the admission). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03685214, which also lists 2 linked publications.
