Arm Type

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Conservative fluid and deresuscitation

Usual care

Arm Description

Fluid restriction (avoidance of maintenance intravenous fluid and minimisation of drug diluent volumes) Daily assessment of eligibility for deresuscitation for 3 days (eligible if oedema in more than 1 site and cumulative fluid balance > 2 litres) Deresuscitation to target negative daily fluid balance of 1 to 3 litres: 5mg Indapamide daily (enteral) 100mg Spironolactone daily (enteral) 0.5mg/kg furosemide once (intravenous, max 40mg) 2.5-20mg/hr furosemide infusion titrated to effect OR continuous renal replacement therapy with fluid removal

Usual care at the discretion of the treating team

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Day 3 fluid balance
Change in fluid balance (mL) between the beginning of study day 2 and the beginning of study day 3.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Cumulative fluid balance
Cumulative fluid balance (mL) from ICU admission
Incidence of significant protocol violations
Incidence of significant protocol violations (total number of patients, per site, and by nature of protocol violation) up to day 5 (intervention period)
Incidence of reported adverse events
Incidence of reported adverse events up to day 5 (intervention period)
Change in Sequential Organ Function Assessment scores
Change in Sequential Organ Function Assessment scores from baseline, overall (0-24) and 6 individual organ sub scores (respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, coagulation, renal and liver, each scored 0-4 which are added to give a total score). Higher values represent more deranged physiology and predict mortality for critically ill patients.
Mortality
Mortality
Duration of mechanical ventilation
Duration of mechanical ventilation in survivors and non-survivors (number of days or part thereof from initiation of mechanical ventilatory support until unassisted breathing)
Length of ICU stay
Length of ICU stay (number of days or part thereof from admission to an ICU or being under the care of a critical care team or consultant until ICU discharge)
Acute kidney injury
Incidence of new acute kidney injury defined as estimated KDIGO Stage 3 (before and after correction for fluid balance)
Cognitive function
Cognitive function score (assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-blind) instrument)
Health-related quality of life
Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) (assessed using absolute values of a telephone-administered EQ-5D (EuroQoL 5 Dimension Scale) questionnaire). This has 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, each of which are scored 1-5, with 1 being best and 5 being worst health. Each domain is reported separately. A total score is generated and is indexed to population reference values for that country (in this case UK) according to the time of data collection. It is therefore not possible to pre-specify a range for the indexed score.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
RADAR-2 will be a randomised, open-label, allocation concealed, pilot trial of conservative fluid administration and deresuscitation compared with usual care in patients who are critically ill.
Detailed Description
The optimal approach to fluid balance in critically ill patients is uncertain. A recent systematic review found low quality evidence in favour of a conservative fluid or deresuscitative approach (active removal of accumulated fluid using diuretics and/or renal replacement therapy) compared with a liberal strategy or usual care. The RADAR-2 pilot randomised trial will compare conservative fluid and deresuscitation with usual care in patients who are mechanically ventilated in an intensive care unit. The main hypothesis is that in critically ill patients, a post-resuscitation fluid strategy comprising conservative fluid administration and active deresuscitation reduces net fluid balance, is safe and improves clinical outcomes.
