Fluid balance and mortality in critically ILL patients
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Intravenous fluids are widely administrated to correct intravascular volume deficit or acute hypovolemia. However, generalized endothelial injury and capillary leak is a common condition in critically ill patients. In such a state, overzealous fluid therapy results in extravascular movement of water, electrolytes and proteins leading to tissue edema and organ dysfunction. The aim of this study is to assess whether positive fluid balance is associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality in critically ill patients.

Influence of Daily Fluid Balance prior to Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy on Outcomes in Critically Ill Patients
Positive fluid balance is a risk factor for mortality in critically ill patients, especially those requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). However, the association between daily fluid balance and various organ impairments remains unclear. This study investigated the impacts of daily fluid balance prior to CRRT on organ dysfunction, as well as mortality in critically ill patients....
متن کاملFluid balance as a biomarker: impact of fluid overload on outcome in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury
Fluid therapy is fundamental to the acute resuscitation of critically ill patients. In general, however, early and appropriate goal-directed fluid therapy contributes to a degree of fluid overload in most if not all patients. Recent data imply that a threshold may exist beyond which, after acute resuscitation, additional fluid therapy may cause harm. In patients with acute kidney injury and/or ...
متن کاملUsing Iron-Chelating Agents in Critically Ill Patients with Iron Overload. Fact or Fiction?
Recently, some evidence has shown that the failure of iron homeostasis may occur in critically ill patients and can lead to iron overload. Elevated ferritin levels as a body iron burden index in critically ill patients may be associated with depressed level of consciousness and greater mortality. However, the necessity of using iron-chelating agents in clinical situation is still unknown for th...
