NCT04356859

Brief Summary

This is a prospective randomized multi-center study which will compare acute fluid resuscitation using a colloid strategy (LR + 5% Albumin) to a crystalloid strategy (LR alone), in adults with an acute burn involving at least 25% of their total body surface area.

Study Arms (2)

Crystalloid

NO INTERVENTION

Subjects in the crystalloid group will receive fluid resuscitation with Lactated Ringer's titrated each hour to achieve a urine output of 0.5-1mL/kg predicted body weight.

Colloid

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects in the colloid group will receive fluid resuscitation with Lactated Ringer's and 5% human albumin solution introduced no earlier than 8 hours post burn and no later than 12 hours post burn in a ratio by volume of 1/3 albumin to 2/3 Lactated Ringer's, and titrated each hour to achieve a urine output of 0.5-1mL/kg (milliliter/kilogram) predicted body weight.

Drug: Albumin Human

Interventions

Addition of albumin during acute resuscitation following burn injury

Also known as: albumin
Colloid
