Brief summary

The objective of this study is to survey the type and the amount of non-resuscitation fluids that patients with septic shock receives during their first 5 days of ICU admission.

Detailed description

Background: Several studies indicate that a large part of the fluid intake in intensive care patients consists of fluids that are given for indications other than volume expansion. However, the type of non-resuscitation fluids that hemodynamically unstable ICU patients receive has not been well characterized. Methods: A multicenter observational cohort study. Baseline data including, sex, age, physiological data at admission, source of sepsis, illness severity, and ICU and hospital mortality will be collected. Fluids administered during the first five days of ICU admission will be registered. Fluids used as vehicle to administer drugs will be regarded as non-resuscitation fluids and will be characterized in detail. All glucose solutions will be regarded as non-resuscitation fluids. Crystalloids delivered at a rate of \< 5 ml/kg/h will be considered as non-resuscitation fluids. Parenteral nutrition will be regarded as non-resuscitation fluids. Crystalloids delivered at a rate of ≥ 5 ml/kg/h will be considered to be resuscitation fluids. Blood products and colloids will be regarded as resuscitation fluids.
