METABOLIC ACIDOSIS, SECONDARY, FLUID OVERLOAD
The results of the secondary endpoints across the three groups are given in Table Secondary endpoints (IDEAL-ICU trial)There was no difference in any of the three groups between early and delayed strategies in terms of ICU length of stay or RRT-free days. The criteria for emergency renal replacement therapy in the 7 days after randomization (severe metabolic acidosis, severe hyperkalemia and fluid overload) were numerically more frequent in the delayed arm in all 3 groups.
