BIA-directed fluid resuscitation
Traditional fluid resuscitation
After the achievement of CVP, MAP and ScvO2 goals, if hyperhydration (HL > 74.3%) was found, then the following fluid management was applied with each passing 6h. If HL was above 87% (severe level), fluid infusion was restricted, a furosemide drip was used, and CRRT was initiated with an ultrafiltration rate when patients were failure or inadequate response to above diuretic therapy that gave a net negative fluid balance of at least 1500 ml during the next 6h. If HL was 81%-87% (moderate level), above methods were used to trigger a net negative fluid balance (about 1000 ml) for the next 6h. Similarly, If HL was 74.3%-81% (mild level), a net negative fluid balance of about 500 ml would be achieved during the next 6h of ICU hospitalization. If HL was blow 71%, a state of dehydration, CVP, MAP, and ScvO2 was maintained as above during ICU resuscitation.
A timely restricted intravenous fluid regimen or dehydration therapy was implemented by two senior clinicians according to cumulative fluid balance recording and hemodynamic condition such as heart rate, blood pressure, central venous pressure, mean arterial pressure, urine output and body weight change.
