• 1 other identifier: IRB.457/66
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 1,000
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to examine the use of different types of fluids for resuscitation in different phases of fluid management in 3 types of critically ill patients including (1) not bleeding, not septic but need volume resuscitation (representing normal condition), (2) bleeding but not septic (representing normal vascular integrity but with a loss of intravascular colloids), (3) septic (representing the condition with increase vascular permeability and endothelium damage) in the ICU within Southeast Asia. The data are collected by a 10-min online survey administered to included physicians which will be distributed via multiple online channels through representatives of each countries.
