24‐Hour fluid administration in emergency department patients with suspected infection; A multicenter, prospective, observational study

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica May 16, 2021

Jessen MK, Andersen LW, Thomsen MLH, et al. - This study was intended to present 24‐hour fluid administration in emergency department (ED) patients with suspected infection. Researchers performed a prospective, multicenter, observational study in three Danish hospitals, January 20‐March 2, 2020. They enrolled consecutive adult ED patients with suspected infection (drawing of blood culture and/or intravenous antibiotic administration within 6 hours of admission). In this study, 734 patients had 24‐hour fluids available; 387 patients had a simple infection, 339 sepsis, 8 septic shock. The data demonstrate that individuals with simple infection and sepsis received equal fluid volumes. It was shown that fluid volumes varied markedly, a variation that was partly explained by clinical characteristics.
