Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the clinical effects of using Ringer's Lactate and Sterofundin/ Plasmalyte as maintenance fluids in adult patients who have undergone abdominal surgery and are septic.

The primary outcome will be the change in serum lactate levels. Secondary outcomes will include renal function parameters, qSOFA scores, and the incidence of postoperative complications within the first 72 hours following surgery.

Conditions

  • Post Abdominal Surgery
  • Sepsis Abdominal

Interventions

OTHER

Ringer's Lactate Crystalloid Solutions

A balanced crystalloid solution containing sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, and lactate as a buffer. Used at a standard maintenance rate for adult postoperative patients.

OTHER

Sterofundin (Bolus of crystalloids)

A balanced, multi-electrolyte crystalloid solution containing acetate and malate as buffers instead of lactate. Designed to more closely match plasma electrolyte composition, with a lower chloride concentration than RL.
