Brief Summary

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

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.

Detailed Description

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, and to determine whether co-morbidities with hypoalbuminemia, clinician specialties, hospital practice settings, geographic locations and re-imbursement limitation especially for colloids influence the practice patterns of fluid utilization in different phases in the 3 types of patients. Ultimately, the information provided by this study could also provide basic background information for the design of future clinical trials regarding fluid resuscitation strategies.

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.

The survey will start with an inform-consent form prior to starting the survey questions which consist of 13-item questionnaire obtaining information on

1. Demographics data of clinicians taking the survey on primary specialty, region or country of practice and hospital settings.
2. Preferences for volume status indicators.
3. Preferences for fluid resuscitation in 3 types of patients (1. Septic 2. bleeding but not septic 3. not bleeding and not septic) during resuscitation and optimization phase.
4. Preferences for fluid resuscitation in the 3 types of patients with hypoalbuminemia including (1) cirrhosis (2) nephrotic syndrome (3) other significant hypoalbuminemia during resuscitation/optimization phase and stabilization phase
5. The reasons for using colloids for volume expansion
6. The experience of adverse reactions to albumin
7. The awareness and importance of non-oncotic properties of albumin
8. The impact of reimbursement for colloids on resuscitation fluid choice
