摘要
Background:Fluid overload(FO)after resuscitation is frequent and contributes to adverse outcomes among postinjury open abdomen(OA)patients.Bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA)is a promising tool for monitoring fluid status and FO.Therefore,we sought to investigate the efficacy of BIA-directed fluid resuscitation among OA patients.Methods:A pragmatic,prospective,randomized,observer-blind,single-center trial was performed for all trauma patients requiring OA between January 2013 and December 2017 to a national referral center.A total of 140 postinjury OA patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a BIA-directed fluid resuscitation(defined as BIA)protocol that included fluid administration with monitoring of hemodynamic parameters and different degrees of interventions to achieve a negative fluid balance targeting the hydration level(HL)measured by BIA or a traditional fluid resuscitation(TRD)in which clinicians determined the fluid resuscitation regimen according to traditional parameters during 30 d of intensive care unit(ICU)management.The primary outcome was the 30-day primary fascial closure(PFC)rate.The secondary outcomes included the time to PFC,postoperative 7-day cumulative fluid balance(CFB)and adverse events within 30 d after OA.The Kaplan–Meier method and the log-rank test were utilized for PFC after OA.A generalized linear regression model for the time to PFC and CFB was built.Results:A total of 134 patients completed the trial(BIA,n=66;TRD,n=68).The BIA patients were significantly more likely to achieve PFC than the TRD patients(83.33%vs.55.88%,P<0.001).In the BIA group,the time to PFC occurred earlier than that of the TRD group by an average of 3.66 d(P<0.001).Additionally,the BIA group showed a lower postoperative 7-day CFB by an average of 6632.80 ml(P<0.001)and fewer complications.Conclusions:Among postinjury OA patients in the ICU,the use of BIA-guided fluid resuscitation resulted in a higher PFC rate and fewer severe complications than the traditional fluid resuscitation
