RESUMO
Malaria, a vector borne disease, is a major global health and socioeconomic problem caused by the apicomplexan protozoan parasite Plasmodium. The parasite alternates between mosquito vector and vertebrate host, with meiosis in the mosquito and proliferative mitotic cell division in both hosts. In the canonical eukaryotic model, cell division is either by open or closed mitosis and karyokinesis is followed by cytokinesis; whereas in Plasmodium closed mitosis is not directly accompanied by concomitant cell division. Key molecular players and regulatory mechanisms of this process have been identified, but the pivotal role of certain protein complexes and the post-translational modifications that modulate their actions are still to be deciphered. Here, we discuss recent evidence for the function of known proteins in Plasmodium cell division and processes that are potential novel targets for therapeutic intervention. We also identify key questions to open new and exciting research to understand divergent Plasmodium cell division.

BACKGROUND: Septic shock is associated with high morbidity and mortality, the endothelium plays an important role. Crystalloids is standard of care to maintain intravascular volume. Plasma is associated with improved endothelial integrity and restoration of the glycocalyx layer. We evaluated the efficacy and safety aspects of cell-free and pathogen inactivated pooled plasma (OctaplasLG®) as resuscitation in septic shock patients. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This randomized, investigator-initiated phase IIa trial ran at a Danish single center intensive care unit, from 2017 to 2019. Patients were 18 years of age or older with septic shock and randomized to fluid optimization with OctaplasLG® or Ringer-acetate in the first 24 h. The primary endpoints were changes in biomarkers indicative of endothelial activation, damage, and microvascular perfusion from baseline to 24 h. Safety events and mortality were assessed during 90 days. RESULTS: Forty-four patients were randomized, 20 to OctaplasLG versus 24 to Ringer-acetate. The median age was 69, and 55% were men. Median Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score was 13. Baseline differences favoring the Ringer-acetate group were observed. The OctaplasLG® group was resuscitated with 740 mL plasma and the Ringer-acetate group with 841 mL crystalloids. There was no significant change in the microvascular perfusion or five biomarkers except VEGFR1 change, which was higher in patients receiving OctaplasLG® 0.12(SD 0.37) versus Ringer-acetate -0.24 (SD 0.39), with mean difference 0.36 (95% CI, 0.13-0.59, p = .003) in favor of Ringer-acetate. DISCUSSION: This study found that fluid resuscitation with OctaplasLG® in critically ill septic shock patients is feasible. Baseline confounding prevented assessment of the potential effect of OctaplasLG®.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate available evidence of physical and/or chemical compatibility of commonly used medications in critically ill patients with balanced crystalloids. DATA SOURCES: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were queried from inception to September 2022. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: This review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. English-language studies reporting physical and/or chemical compatibility data between 50 selected medications and balanced crystalloids were included. A previously designed tool to assess risk of bias was adapted for use. DATA SYNTHESIS: Twenty-nine studies encompassing 39 (78%) medications and 188 unique combinations with balanced crystalloids were included. Combinations included 35 (70%) medications with lactated Ringer's, 26 (52%) medications with Plasma-Lyte, 10 (20%) medications with Normosol, and one (2%) medication with Isolyte. Studies commonly evaluated physical and chemical compatibility (55.2%). More medications were evaluated via Y-site than admixture. Incompatibilities were identified in 18% of combinations comprising 13 individual drugs. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE: This systematic review evaluates the compatibility of select critical care medications with balanced crystalloid solutions. Results may be used as a tool to guide clinicians on balanced crystalloid compatibility, potentially increasing ubiquitous use and reducing patient exposure to normal saline. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Data are limited regarding chemical/physical compatibility of commonly used medications in critically ill patients with balanced crystalloids. Additional compatibility studies are warranted, particularly methodologically rigorous studies assessing Plasma-Lyte, Normosol, and Isolyte. Of the evaluated medications, there was a low frequency of incompatibilities with balanced crystalloids.

INTRODUCTION: Fluid resuscitation has long been a cornerstone of pre-hospital trauma care, yet its optimal approach remains undetermined. Although a liberal approach to fluid resuscitation has been linked with increased complications, the potential survival benefits of a restrictive approach in blunt trauma patients have not been definitively established. Consequently, equipoise persists regarding the optimal fluid resuscitation strategy in this population. METHODS: We analysed data from the two largest European trauma registries, the UK Trauma Audit and Research Network (TARN) and the German TraumaRegister DGU® (TR-DGU), between 2004 and 2018. All adult blunt trauma patients with an Injury Severity Score > 15 were included. We examined annual trends in pre-hospital fluid resuscitation, admission coagulation function, and mortality rates. RESULTS: Over the 15-year study period, data from 68,510 patients in the TARN cohort and 82,551 patients in the TR-DGU cohort were analysed. In the TARN cohort, 3.4% patients received pre-hospital crystalloid fluids, with a median volume of 25 ml (20-36 ml) administered. Conversely, in the TR-DGU cohort, 91.1% patients received pre-hospital crystalloid fluids, with a median volume of 756 ml (750-912 ml) administered. Notably, both cohorts demonstrated a consistent year-on-year decrease in the volume of pre-hospital fluid administered, accompanied by improvements in admission coagulation function and reduced mortality rates. CONCLUSION: Considerable variability exists in pre-hospital fluid resuscitation strategies for blunt trauma patients. Our data suggest a trend towards reduced pre-hospital fluid administration over time. This trend appears to be associated with improved coagulation function and decreased mortality rates. However, we acknowledge that these outcomes are influenced by multiple factors, including other improvements in pre-hospital care over time. Future research should aim to identify which trauma populations may benefit, be harmed, or remain unaffected by different pre-hospital fluid resuscitation strategies.

This study aimed to evaluate the current evidence on various aspects of fluid therapy such as type, volume, and timing of fluid bolus administration in children with septic shock. Systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical trials including children less than 18 years of age admitted to the pediatric emergency and intensive care unit with severe infection and shock requiring fluid resuscitation. The intervention included balanced crystalloids (BC) vs normal saline (NS), colloids vs NS, restricted vs liberal fluid bolus, and slow vs fast fluid bolus. The primary outcome was mortality rate. Of the 219 citations retrieved, 12 trials (3526 children with severe infection with or without malaria and shock) were included. The pooled results found no significant difference in the mortality rate between groups comparing balanced crystalloids (BC) vs normal saline (NS), colloids vs NS, restricted vs liberal fluid bolus, and slow vs fast fluid bolus. The risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) was significantly less in the BC group compared to the NS group. The certainty of evidence for mortality was of "moderate certainty" in the BC vs NS group, and was of "very low certainty" for the other two groups. CONCLUSIONS: The current meta-analysis found no significant difference in the mortality rate between the types of resuscitation fluid, and their speed or volume of administration. However, a significantly decreased risk of AKI was found in the BC group. More evidence is needed regarding the speed and volume of administration of fluid boluses in critically ill children.Prospero registration: CRD42020209066. WHAT IS KNOWN: ⢠Balanced crystalloids (BC) may be better than normal saline (NS) for fluid resuscitation in critically ill children. WHAT IS NEW: ⢠BC are better than NS for fluid resuscitation in critically ill children as they decrease AKI and hyperchloremia.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy and safety of albumin as pump priming fluid in cardiac surgery. DESIGN: Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. SETTING: Each study was conducted in a surgical center or intensive care unit. PARTICIPANTS: Adult and pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass who received circuit priming fluids. INTERVENTIONS: Extracorporeal circuit priming with either albumin or crystalloid. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS: Fourteen eligible randomized controlled trials with 741 patients were included in the present meta-analysis. Albumin prime had lower bleeding (CI -202.20 to -142.88 mL, p < 0.00001) and showed a greater advantage in preserving platelet counts (CI 14.85-21.48 × 103 mm-3, p < 0.00001), maintaining colloid osmotic pressure and sustaining negative fluid balance. No significant differences were found in the remaining study outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Albumin was shown to be safe and efficacious in extracorporeal circulation perfusion. However, its clinical advantages were not clearly highlighted, as there were no significant differences in the number of deaths, length of hospital stay, or intensive care unit duration. The results should be interpreted cautiously, as most included studies were small in scale, and the total number of participants was limited.

OBJECTIVES: To estimate the use of albumin among adults undergoing thoracic surgery in the United States, compare baseline characteristics, clinical and cost outcomes of recipients versus nonrecipients, and determine albumin's contribution to total hospital costs. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Nationwide sample of US hospitals. PARTICIPANTS: Adults undergoing open and minimally invasive thoracic surgery between 2011 and 2017. INTERVENTIONS: Albumin on the day of surgery (identified using itemized hospital billing logs). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Albumin was used in 170 of 342 US hospitals, among 13% and 7% of 14,672 and 22,532 patients who, respectively, underwent open and minimally invasive thoracic surgery (median volume 500 mL). Baseline comorbidities and organ-supportive treatments were several-fold more prevalent among recipients (particularly vasopressors, mechanical ventilation, and red cell transfusions). In standardized mortality ratio propensity score weighted analysis, albumin use was not associated with in-hospital mortality (adjusted relative risk 1.17 [0.72, 1.92] and 1.51 [0.97, 2.34], with open and minimally invasive procedures), but was associated with morbidity and higher costs, more so with minimally invasive procedures than with open surgery. Total costs among recipients were higher by $4,744 ($3,591, $5,897) and $5,088 ($4,075, $6,100) for open and minimally invasive procedures, respectively. Albumin accounted for 2.6% of this difference (median $124 [$83-$189] per patient). CONCLUSIONS: Albumin use varies widely across hospitals, and 9% of patients receive it (median 500 mL). Use was not associated with in-hospital mortality and was associated with more morbidity and cost. The cost of albumin accounted for a trivial portion of hospital costs. Clinical trials must examine the effects of albumin on complications and costs after thoracic surgery.
RESUMO
The administration of fluids is one of the most common interventions in the intensive care unit. The effects and side effects of intravenous fluids depend on the amount administered and their specific composition. Intravenous fluid solutions are either considered crystalloids (for example 0.9% saline, lactated Ringer's solution) or colloids (artificial colloids such as gelatins, and albumin). This narrative review summarizes the physiological principles of fluid therapy and reviews the most important studies on crystalloids, artificial colloids and albumin in the context of critically ill patients.

The analysis of trial results of the intravenous fluids pharmacodynamics revealed problems common to all studies, such as varying study designs, clinical discretion for treatments, and heterogeneous patients. We believe that in the methodology of future research it is also necessary to pay due attention to the actual rather than theoretical physicochemical parameters of the solutions used, such as osmolality, pH, and potential excess of bases. Paying attention to these parameters of intravenous fluids will be useful for assessing their role in producing pharmacodynamic effects in critically ill patients.

BACKGROUND: The evidence regarding optimal crystalloid use in the perioperative period remains unclear. As the primary aim of this study, we sought to summarise the data from RCTs examining whether use of balanced crystalloids compared with 0.9% saline (saline) leads to differences in patient-important outcomes. METHODS: We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane library, and Clinicaltrials.gov, from inception until December 15, 2022, and included RCTs that intraoperatively randomised adult participants to receive either balanced fluids or saline. We pooled data using a random-effects model and present risk ratios (RRs) or mean differences (MDs), along with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We assessed individual study risk of bias using the modified Cochrane tool, and certainty of evidence using GRADE. RESULTS: Of 5959 citations, we included 38 RCTs (n=3776 patients). Pooled analysis showed that intraoperative use of balanced fluids compared with saline had an uncertain effect on postoperative mortality analysed at the longest point of follow-up (RR 1.51, 95% CI: 0.42-5.36) and postoperative need for renal replacement therapy (RR 0.95, 95% CI: 0.56-1.59), both very low certainty. Furthermore, use of balanced crystalloids probably leads to a higher postoperative serum pH (MD 0.05, 95% CI: 0.04-0.06), moderate certainty. CONCLUSIONS: Use of balanced crystalloids, compared with saline, in the perioperative setting has an uncertain effect on mortality and need for renal replacement therapy but probably improves postoperative acid-base status. Further research is needed to determine whether balanced crystalloid use affects patient-important outcomes. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: CRD42022367593.

Endothelial cell activation and injury is common after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and is associated with many post-transplant complications. An underexplored mechanism of endothelial cell damage in this population is the infusion of normal saline (NS, 0.9 % sodium chloride) and other crystalloids, as NS use is associated with adverse outcomes in other patient populations. We hypothesized that the infusion of unbalanced crystalloids during HSCT may lead to changes in biomarkers commonly associated with red blood cell (RBC) hemolysis in patients before and after infusion, and that markers of endothelial and end-organ damage during admission may be associated with markers of hemolysis and total crystalloid use. Samples were collected from 97 patients. From pre-fluid infusion to post-fluid infusion, mean haptoglobin decreased (11.7 ug/ml vs 8.4 ug/ml; p < 0.0001), hemopexin decreased (549 vs 512 µg/ml; p = 0.005), and red cell distribution width (RDW) decreased (15.7 vs 15.6; p = 0.0009). During admission (mean 19.4 days, SD 9.9), all markers of tissue and organ damage, including mean creatinine, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total bilirubin, AST, and ALT, increased from admission to peak levels (p < 0.0001). On linear regression, fluid volume (ml/kg) of crystalloid infusion positively predicted post-fluid infusion cell-free hemoglobin (r(96) = 0.34, p < 0.0001), free heme (r(96) = 0.36, p < 0.0001), and peak LDH during admission (r(75) = 0.23, p = 0.041), and negatively predicted post-fluid infusion hemopexin (r(96) = - 0.34, p < 0.0001). Unbalanced crystalloids may contribute to hemolysis and endothelial damage in HSCT patients. Alternatives such as buffered crystalloid solutions (PlasmaLyte, Lactated Ringer's) may be worth investigating in this population.

The importance of fluid resuscitation therapy during the early stages of sepsis management is a well-established principle. Current Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) guidelines recommend the early administration of intravenous crystalloid fluids for sepsis-related hypotension or hyperlactatemia due to tissue hypoperfusion, within the first 3 h of resuscitation and suggest using balanced solutions (BSs) instead of normal saline (NS) for the management of patients with sepsis or septic shock. Studies comparing BS versus NS administration in septic patients have demonstrated that BSs are associated with better outcomes including decreased mortality. After initial resuscitation, fluid administration has to be judicious in order to avoid fluid overload, which has been associated with increased mortality, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and worsening of acute kidney injury. The "one size fits all" approach may be "convenient" but it should be avoided. Personalized fluid management, based on patient-specific hemodynamic indices, provides the foundations for better patient outcomes in the future. Although there is a consensus on the need for adequate fluid therapy in sepsis, the type, the amount of administered fluids, and the ideal fluid resuscitation strategy remain elusive. Well-designed large randomized controlled trials are certainly needed to compare fluid choices specifically in the septic patient, as there is currently limited evidence of low quality. This review aims to summarize the physiologic principles and current scientific evidence regarding fluid management in patients with sepsis, as well as to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest data on the optimal fluid administration strategy in sepsis.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this article is to summarize the results of major randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing clinical outcomes of critically ill patients treated with normal saline (NS) or balanced salt solutions (BSSs), address discordant results of these studies, and provide direction for future investigations. DATA SOURCES: PubMed (2011 to January 2022) with bibliographies of retrieved articles searched for additional articles. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: RCTs comparing NS and BSSs in critically ill adult patients. DATA SYNTHESIS: Recently published large RCTs comparing NS with BSSs in heterogeneous populations of intensive care unit patients did not find significant differences in mortality, despite positive findings in some end points in prior RCTs. However, there were a number of methodologic issues common to the RCTs including: varying study designs and end points, clinician discretion for the majority or all treatments other than the primary intervention fluid, heterogeneous patients with varying levels of acuity, and lack of power to investigate potential subgroup differences. In addition, there were problematic issues related to blinding and use of nonstudy fluids. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE: Intravenous fluids are a mainstay of supportive care for critically ill patients. Similar to the so-called crystalloid-colloid debate, there has been a long-standing debate among critical care clinicians and researchers concerning the preferred crystalloid solution, NS versus one of the available BSSs. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the recent publication of large multicenter RCTs, the preferred resuscitation fluid, NS or a BSS, for critically ill patients is still open for debate, although the available investigations do provide some direction for clinicians and for future investigations.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether the early use of albumin after cardiac surgery in the first 24 hours in the intensive care unit (ICU) is associated with reduced mortality. DESIGN: A single-center nonrandomized retrospective cohort study using the Medical Information Mart in Intensive Care IV database. SETTING: A single cardiothoracic ICU in the United States during a period between 2008 to 2019. PARTICIPANTS: Patients undergoing valvular and/or cardiac bypass graft surgeries. INTERVENTIONS: Albumin administered during the first 24 hours of the ICU admission. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: A total of 8,136 patients were included in this study, of whom 4,444 (54.6%) received albumin at any stage during the first 24 hours of ICU admission, and 69 (1.6%) of those patients died. The patient population exposed to albumin had higher comorbidities and illness severity compared to the no-albumin group. Patients exposed to albumin during the first 24 hours of ICU admission had a statistically significant reduction in mortality (odds ratio [OR], 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48-0.97, p < 0.05) after adjustment for age, the Oxford Acute Severity of Illness Score, and the Charlson comorbidity index. A sensitivity analysis of patients who received albumin at any stage during ICU admission showed increased mortality (OR, 1.93; 95% CI, 1.26-3.07, p < 0.01). Patients exposed to albumin had a significant increase in adjusted ICU length of stay (LOS) (geometric mean ratio 1.09; 95% CI, 1.05-1.10, p = < 0.001) and hospital LOS (geometric mean ratio 1.08; 95% CI, 1.05-1.10, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Exposure to albumin in the first 24 hours after cardiac surgery is associated with a reduction in adjusted hospital mortality and an increase in both hospital and ICU lengths of stay.

OBJECTIVES: Calcium and magnesium are concentration-dependent pro- and anticoagulant cofactors, and magnesium behaves similarly to calcium in the presence of citrate. The authors hypothesized that magnesium can cause clot formation (primary objective) when mixed with coagulation factor-containing blood products diluted with different crystalloids in a rapid- infuser reservoir. A secondary objective was the observation of any infuser alarms and stops in the event of clotting. DESIGN: An experimental in vitro study with blood products, crystalloids, magnesium, and calcium in a rapid infuser with a reservoir using a closed-loop system. SETTING: Anesthesia research laboratory at an urban academic tertiary medical center PARTICIPANTS: Not applicable. INTERVENTIONS: Exposure of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and packed red blood cells alone (control) or in combination with either normal saline (NS), lactated Ringer's solution (LR), or Plasma-Lyte A (PL) to increasing concentrations of magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) up to 1 g. After each incremental MgSO4 change, the authors applied a specific pump-flow sequence in a closed-loop system with a rapid-infuser reservoir, and if no clot was observed, the authors incrementally added calcium chloride (CaCl2) up to 1 g. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Observation of macroscopic clot and time to event, as well as occurrence and type of any pump alarms or stops. LR experiments resulted in clot observation in the reservoir by a dedicated observer after MgSO4 275 ± 206 mg (95% confidence interval [CI], 9-541). Adding MgSO4 1 g in the NS, PL, or the control experiments did not result in clot observation. Only when CaCl2 166.7 ± 51.64 mg (95% CI, 112.0-22.01) was added to the combination of blood products alone or mixed with NS and PL, clotting occurred. The mean FFP volume was 281 ± 48.6 mL (range, 204-340 mL) and was not different between groups (p = 0.44). Pump alarms and stops were inconsistent. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of magnesium to a combination of LR with coagulation factor- containing blood products consistently resulted in a visible blood clot in the rapid-infuser reservoir in the authors' experimental setup. In addition to MgSO4 1 g in the control, NS, and PL experiments, CaCl2 is needed before a clot can be observed.

Intravenous administration of crystalloid or colloid solutions is the most common intervention for correcting hypovolemia in intensive care unit patients. In critical illness, especially sepsis and severe trauma, vascular wall permeability increases, and trans-endothelial escape of serum albumin, the major oncotic plasma constituent, contributes to the development of hypoalbuminemia and edema formation. The volume effects of intravenous human albumin solution exceed those of crystalloid solutions. If hypoalbuminemia is an effect moderator, the crystalloid-to-albumin ratio of fluid resuscitation volumes is not well characterized. Randomized controlled trials have confirmed that intravenous administration of human albumin solutions for volume resuscitation results in a lower net fluid balance compared with crystalloids, and smaller infusion volumes may be sufficient for hemodynamic stabilization when human albumin solutions are used. This narrative review summarizes the current evidence and conclusions drawn regarding the role of hypoalbuminemia in volume resuscitation. In the 'Saline versus Albumin Fluid Evaluation' study using 4% human albumin solution or saline, the saline-to-albumin ratio of study fluids was significantly higher in patients with baseline serum albumin concentrations of 25 g/L or less as compared to patients with baseline serum albumin concentrations of more than 25 g/L. In patients receiving renal replacement therapy, intravenous administration of 20-25% human albumin solution reduces intradialytic hypotension and improves fluid removal better than saline if serum albumin levels are similarly reduced. These data suggest that hypoalbuminemia acts as an effect moderator in volume resuscitation and plasma expansion with albumin solution. The volume effectiveness of intravenous human albumin solution in resuscitation appears to be greater when the serum albumin levels are low. In clinical situations, serum albumin concentrations per se may inform when and how to include intravenous albumin in fluid resuscitation if large amounts of crystalloids are needed, which requires further studies.

INTRODUCTION: Intravenous (IV) fluids are widely used in everyday clinical practice. In the last two decades, several trials and clinical practice guidelines have been published on the use of different types and dosages of IV fluid. This may have led to a change in clinical practice. Thus, we aim to describe the use of IV crystalloids and colloids in Europe over a 10-year period. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We will collect national or regional data on the use of IV crystalloids and colloids in European hospitals through companies and/or federal medical agencies that provide pharmaceutical data concerning the type and amount of fluids used from January 1st, 2010 to December 31st, 2019. We will use run charts to describe time trends in the use of fluids. CONCLUSION: This study will provide insight into the use of IV fluids in Europe between 2010 and 2019. It will enable the observation of changes over time and among the different European countries and regions. This will provide information on the extent to which landmark trials and clinical practice guidelines on fluids have affected clinical practice in Europe regarding the use of IV fluids.

OBJECTIVE: Advanced Trauma Life Support guidelines recommend only 1 L of intravenous (IV) crystalloid before transitioning to blood products. We sought to determine if receiving >1 L of IV crystalloid during the initial resuscitation is associated with worse outcomes. We also sought to determine if receiving no crystalloids is associated with better outcomes. METHODS: We performed a single center retrospective study using trauma registry data, which was supplemented by manual chart review. We only included patients who had an initial heart rate ≥ 100 beats/min or a systolic blood pressure ≤ 90 mmHg. For each patient, we determined the total amount of IV crystalloid administered in the first 3 h after arrival to the hospital plus prehospital crystalloid. We performed multivariate regression analyses to determine if there is an association between the administration of >1 L of crystalloids or no crystalloids with in-hospital mortality, hospital length of stay (LOS), or packed red blood cells (PRBCs) transfused. RESULTS: Between January 1, 2018 and September 30, 2019, there were 878 who met criteria for enrollment. Among those, 55.0% received ≤1 L of IV crystalloids, and 45.0% received >1 L. Multivariate analyses showed no significant association between receiving >1 L and mortality (p = 0.61) or PRBCs transfused (p = 0.29), but patients who received >1 L had longer hospital LOS (p = 0.04). We found no association between receiving no crystalloids and mortality, PRBCs transfused, or LOS. CONCLUSION: On a multivariate analysis of trauma patients, we did not find an association between the administration of >1 L of IV crystalloid and in-hospital mortality or the volume of PRBCs transfused. However, receiving >1 L of crystalloids was associated with a longer hospital LOS. We found no benefit to completely withholding crystalloids.

BACKGROUND: Perioperative fluid therapy management is changing due to the incorporation of different fluids, surgical techniques, and minimally invasive monitoring systems. The objective of this study was to explore fluid therapy management during the perioperative period in our country. METHODS: We designed the Fluid Day study as a cross-sectional, multicentre, observational study. The study was performed in 131 Spanish hospitals in February 2019. We included adult patients undergoing general anaesthesia for either elective or non-elective surgery. Demographic variables were recorded, as well as the type and total volume of fluid administered during the perioperative period and the monitorization used. To perform the analysis, patients were categorized by risk group. RESULTS: We recruited 7291 patients, 6314 of which were included in the analysis; 1541 (24.4%) patients underwent high-risk surgery, 1497 (23. 7%) were high risk patients, and 554 (8.7%) were high-risk patients and underwent high-risk surgery; 98% patients received crystalloids (80% balanced solutions); intraoperative colloids were used in 466 patients (7.51%). The hourly intraoperative volume in mL/kg/h and the median [Q1; Q3] administered volume (mL/kg) were, respectively, 6.67 [3.83; 8.17] ml/Kg/h and 13.9 [9.52;5.20] ml/Kg in low-risk patients undergoing low- or intermediate-risk surgery, 6 [4.04; 9.08] ml/Kg/h and 15.7 [10.4;24.5] ml/Kg in high- risk patients undergoing low or intermediate-risk surgery, 6.41 [4.36; 9.33] ml/Kg/h and 20.2 [13.3;32.4] ml/Kg in low-risk patients undergoing high-risk surgery, and 5.46 [3.83; 8.17] ml/Kg/h and 22.7[14.1;40.9] ml/Kg in high-risk patients undergoing high- risk surgery . We used advanced fluid monitoring strategies in 5% of patients in the intraoperative period and in 10% in the postoperative period. CONCLUSIONS: The most widely used fluid was balanced crystalloids. Colloids were used in a small number of patients. Hourly surgery volume tended to be more restrictive in high-risk patients but confirms a high degree of variation in the perioperatively administered volume. Scarce monitorization was observed in fluid therapy management. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinical Trials: NCT03630744.

The German S3 guidelines on intravascular volume therapy in adults were updated in September 2020. Based on updated evidence recommendations for the diagnosis of isotonic dehydration and for fluid therapy with crystalloids and colloids in peri-interventional and intensive care medicine were proposed.
