Colloids to improve diuresis in critically ill patients: a systematic review

Abstract: BackgroundThe background of this study is to determine whether the addition of intravenous colloid to diuretic therapy, in comparison to diuretic therapy alone, improves diuresis and oxygenation and prevents intravascular volume depletion in intensive care unit (ICU) patients without shock.MethodsWe searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials, Google Scholar, conference abstracts of ACCP, SCCM, ATS, and references of relevant articles. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of adult ICU patie… Show more

“…1 The iso-oncotic preparation is employed for volume expansion, and the hyper-oncotic formulation is used for restoration of oncotic pressure 1 or mobilisation of fluid from extravascular spaces. 2 Although used broadly in the hospitalised patient, albumin has only been shown in trials to have potential benefits in patients with complications of cirrhosis. Albumin reduces the incidence of paracentesis-induced circulatory dysfunction in patients undergoing large-volume paracentesis, 3 although the impact on patient-important outcomes is less clear.…”
