简要总结
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a life-threatening complication of Diabetes, is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. India has more than 65 million cases of Diabetes and an estimated 500000 cases of DKA annually with the highest prevalence in younger patients.
*Objectives:*In critically ill adult and paediatric patients with DKA, to determine if fluid therapy with RL compared to NS increases the number of “days alive and out of hospitalâ€
Methods: A multicentre randomized cluster cross-over trial
Novelty: This will be the largest trial in India comparing two commonly used IV fluids in patients with DKA.
Expected Outcome: This innovative trial will examine the safety and efficacy of a widely used intervention on a clinically relevant endpoint- “days alive and out of hospital†, and thereby generating new knowledge. Reducing length of stay by one day would also lead to savings of 7000 INR per patient per day to the healthcare system
