General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
Our principle aim is to compare the effects of 5% versus 20% albumin solution when given as fluid resuscitation in critically ill adults. As this is a pilot study, the main objective is to test whether the study processes and procedures are both feasible and safe.
The sorts of effects we will compare include routine observations such as heart rate, blood pressure and the amount of urine a patient produces every hour. We will also compare the biochemical levels of sodium and chloride in patient's blood. The most important comparison we will make is the total amount of fluid (in ml) that patients receive during the study period.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
There is the possibility that patients may not have the capacity to consent so the study would allow their personal or professional legal representative to provide valid consent on their behalf. This process is in keeping with standard and established approach to consent in critically ill incapacitated adults. Retrospective consent would then be sought once the patient was able.
Additional blood samples will be taken in addition to standard care at 1, 2 and 4 hours post infusion when the patient will still be present in Intensive Care Unit.
The study was run in the UK and also in Australia and care was taken when sending UK data over to Australia, that no identifying information was included. It was sent via an encrypted database.
|
||
Background therapy |
There are no mandated background therapy's however nor does the protocol restrict any other treatment a patient may be given such as oxygen therapy, antibiotics, radiological interventions, blood products or surgical intervention. | ||
Evidence for comparator |
Both 5% and 20% albumin solutions are legally licenced for use as fluid resuscitation. Both solutions are in widespread use for this purpose around the world but have never been compared before. It is hypothesized that those patients receiving 20% solution, which is more concentrated, will receive less fluid, sodium and chloride and thus potentially be at a reduced risk of organ failure and death. | ||

Recruitment details |
The trial opened to recruitment in Australia on 01/07/2015. The UK site began recruiting on 30/11/2016 and closed on 26/03/2017 at Manchester Royal Infirmary. Patients recruited from Intensive Care Unit who had been there for less than 24 hours. | |||||||||
