BIA-Guided vs. Conventional Fluid Resuscitation in ICU Patients

In this study aimed to compare bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)-guided fluid resuscitation with conventional fluid management strategies in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) following major surgery. The primary objective is to evaluate whether BIA-guided fluid therapy reduces 28-day mortality by optimizing fluid balance and preventing volume-related complications. Secondary outcomes include cumulative fluid balance, ICU and hospital length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, and need for vasopressor or inotropic support. This study is expected to provide evidence for the clinical utility and applicability of BIA in guiding postoperative fluid therapy in critically ill patients.
