U.S., Feb. 21 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06838585) titled 'Intra-Abdominal Sepsis and Relationship Between Cumulative Fluid Balance and Serum Sodium and Chloride Levels and In-Hospital Mortality' on Feb. 10.

Brief Summary: Intra-abdominal sepsis and septic shock in critically ill surgical patients have a high mortality rate. Fluid therapy is one of the initial resuscitation measures, but it can contribute to poor treatment outcomes through fluid overload and accumulation of sodium and chloride. This study aimed to examine an association among cumulative fluid balance and serum sodium and chloride levels in the intensive care unit (ICU) and in-hospital mortality in critically ill surgical pa...
