Cardiometry Versus Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial (FACTT Lite) on Fluid Management in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients

Summary

The aim of this study will be to compare the fluid management in acute respiratory distress syndrome ARDS guided by electrical cardiometry (EC) versus the guidance with simplified conservative fluid protocol, Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial "FACTT Lite". Group (A) consists of 35 patients: Fluid management in this group will follow a simplified conservative fluid protocol, "FACTT Lite" The FACTT Lite provided three possible instructions determined by the CVP and urine output: furosemide administration, fluid bolus, or no intervention. Group (B) consists of 35 patients: Fluid will be allowed according to an FTc-based fluids algorithm protocol and the type of bolus fluids will be determined according to Transthoracic fluid content (TFC), vasopressors and inotropes will be given according to reading of EC reading of systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and index of contractility (I CON).
