Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | 0.9% Sodium Chloride (Saline) | Patients in an ICU block randomized to saline will receive 0.9% sodium chloride whenever isotonic intravenous fluid administration is ordered by the treating provider.~Saline: 0.9% sodium chloride will be used whenever an isotonic crystalloid is ordered | 467 | 2,646 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | Balanced Crystalloid | Patients in an ICU block randomized to balanced crystalloid will receive Plasma-Lyte A or Lactated Ringer's whenever isotonic intravenous crystalloid administration is ordered by the treating provider.~Balanced crystalloid: Lactated Ringers or Plasma-Lyte A will be used whenever an isotonic crystalloid is ordered | 418 | 2,735 | OG001 |
