Summary

The aim of the FLUID Trial is to conduct a pragmatic, multi-centre, open label randomized cluster cross-over trial (RCT) to determine whether fluid administration with 0.9% saline as compared to Ringer's lactate decreases death or re-admission to hospital with 90 days of the index admission.

Conditions

  • Fluid Therapy

Interventions

DRUG

Ringer's lactate

Half of the hospitals will be randomized to Ringer's Lactate for a 12 week study period; after a 2 week run-out, the study fluid will be switched to 0.9% saline for another 12 week study period, followed by a 2 week run-out.

DRUG

0.9% saline

Half of the hospitals will be randomized to 0.9% saline for a 12 week study period; after a 2 week run-out, the study fluid will be switched to Ringer's Lactate for another 12 week study period, followed by a 2 week run-out.
