Critically ill patients usually require intravenous fluids to correct low blood pressure and improve blood flow to vital organs. However, once the patient's blood pressure has improved, these fluids can leak out into various organs, including the lung, kidneys, and skin. Excess fluid in these tissues, called edema, has been associated with longer ICU stays and higher mortality. Thus removing excess fluid is an important goal. The simplest way to treat edema is to use diuretics, such as furosemide, which increase urine output.
Furosemide and Albumin for Diuresis of Edema: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (FADE) The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U.S. Federal Government.
To further improve urine output, patients are sometimes given albumin, a protein which helps to suck fluid out from the tissues, and keep it in the blood vessel, where it can be filtered in the kidney and removed in the urine. Although albumin is often used for this purpose, there is little evidence to support it. A large randomized controlled trial is needed to determine if albumin plus furosemide is truly more effective than furosemide alone in critically ill patients with low levels of blood albumin. We will perform a pilot study to assess the feasibility of such a trial.
