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 | 5% Human Albumin Solution | Participants allocated to the treatment arm will receive intravenous 5% Human Albumin Solution (HAS) administered as the sole intravenous fluid during the initial 6-hour resuscitation period. The clinician can deliver up to 10ml/kg in the first 3 hours using 250ml boluses of HAS based on clinical judgement, using clinical assessment supplemented by technology if that is their usual practice. This will be followed by repeat clinical assessment after each bolus (including vital signs; lactate testing). After 3 hours further HAS boluses up to 6 hours post-randomisation will be at clinical discretion and will be documented in the CRF. Patients in the albumin arm should not receive balanced crystalloid as a resuscitation fluid in the first 6 hours.~Human albumin: Any preparation of 5% Human Albumin Solution which has marketing authorisation in the UK to be used for this indication and is stocked by local hospital pharmacies at the participating sites, may be prescribed in this study | 36 | 150 | OG000 |
| Group 2 | Intravenous Balanced Crystalloid | Participant allocated to the usual care arm will receive intravenous balanced crystalloid administered as the sole intravenous fluid during the initial 6 hour resuscitation period. The clinician can deliver up to 30ml/kg in the first 3 hours using 250ml boluses of balanced crystalloid based on clinical judgement, using clinical assessment supplemented by technology if that is their usual practice. This will be followed by repeat clinical assessment after each bolus (including vital signs; lactate testing). Thereafter, further crystalloid boluses up to 6 hours will be at the discretion of the clinical team and will be documented in the CRF. Patients in the balanced crystalloid arm should not receive albumin as a resuscitation fluid in the first 6 hours.~Balanced crystalloid solution: Any preparation of intravenous balanced crystalloid which has marketing authorisation in the UK to be used for this indication and is stocked by local hospital pharmacies at the participating sites, may be prescribed in this study. | 30 | 150 | OG001 |
