Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary end point of this prospective, randomized, controlled - The “Sparing PotassIum DiurEtics in patients Receiving MANnitol: SPIDER-MAN trial”- is to evaluate, in patients receiving neurocritical care for cerebral edema, the effects of a potassium sparing diuretic (canrenone) as an adjunct to mannitol therapy on potassium urinary excreti;Secondary Objective: The secondary end points are to record its effects on potassium plasma level, episodes of cardiac arrhythmias, and on the length of stay in the intensive care.;Primary end point(s): potassium urinary excretion measured by collecting urine output for the 24 hours from day 1st to day 8th
