Summary

In this study aimed to compare bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)-guided fluid resuscitation with conventional fluid management strategies in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) following major surgery. The primary objective is to evaluate whether BIA-guided fluid therapy reduces 28-day mortality by optimizing fluid balance and preventing volume-related complications. Secondary outcomes include cumulative fluid balance, ICU and hospital length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, and need for vasopressor or inotropic support. This study is expected to provide evidence for the clinical utility and applicability of BIA in guiding postoperative fluid therapy in critically ill patients.

Conditions

  • Fluid and Electrolyte Imbalance
  • Anesthesia

Interventions

DEVICE

Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BCM)

The Body Composition Monitor (BCM) device will be used to perform daily bioelectrical impedance measurements to guide fluid resuscitation in critically ill patients after major surgery. Measurements include extracellular water, intracellular water, total body water, and phase angle. The results will be used to tailor fluid therapy.

PROCEDURE

Conventional Fluid Management

Patients in this group will receive fluid therapy based on standard clinical parameters including blood pressure, heart rate, urine output, laboratory values, and physical examination. No bioelectrical impedance measurement will be performed.
