Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Enrolled subjects will be randomly assigned to either the Colloid Group or the Crystalloid Group. Randomization will be based on an intent-to-treat basis. In order to ensure that the two groups have comparable injury severity at baseline, randomization will be block- stratified based on age (18-50 and \> 50 years), burn size (25-50% and \> 50% TBSA), and presence of inhalation injury confirmed by bronchoscopy (present or absent). In the Colloid Group resuscitation starts with LR and then 5% albumin will be introduced between 8 and 12 hours post burn in a ratio of 1/3 albumin to 2/3 LR. In the Crystalloid Group resuscitation is with LR only. Each group will have their study fluid maintained for the 1st 48 hours post burn and study fluids in each group will be identically titrated to the urinary output.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Randomization will be based on "intent to treat." Consecutively admitted and eligible burn patients will be assigned to one of two treatment groups (Colloid or Crystalloid) within 12 hours of burn injury.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Crystalloid

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.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Colloid

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.
