Fluid Resuscitation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Factors Affecting Pediatric Isotonic Fluid Resuscitation Efficiency: Impact of Syringe Size
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of syringe size on the amount of time it takes a health care provider to administer a known volume (900 mL) of resuscitation fluid to a non-clinical, toddler-sized, model. The investigators hypothesize that syringe size will impact fluid resuscitation time.
The Surviving Sepsis Guideline for the resuscitation of pediatric septic shock indicates
that up to 60 mL/kg of isotonic saline should be administered within the first 15 minutes of
resuscitation. There are practical challenges to achieving these benchmarks. Syringes are
often used to perform manual fluid resuscitation as they are generally available and health
care providers are typically comfortable using them. Health care providers have been
observed to have different preferences regarding the syringe size used to perform manual
fluid resuscitation. Larger syringes e.g. 60 mL-size requires more force to depress the
syringe plunger, due to a larger crosssectional area, but fewer syringes are needed to
administer a given volume. Fewer syringes results in less time spent connecting and
disconnecting syringes, which contributes to total fluid resuscitation time using this
technique.
Consenting participants will be randomly assigned (by an independent Randomization
Coordinator) to one of four syringe size groups (10 mL, 20 mL, 30 mL, 60 mL sizes). The
allocation sequence is therefore concealed. After undergoing a standardization procedure,
each participant will be instructed to administer 900 mL of 0.9% normal saline using
pre-filled provided syringes by manual push as rapidly as possible using the
disconnect-reconnect method. Participants will be advised to consider that they are in a
situation where they are resuscitating a 15 kg child (represented by the model) in
decompensated shock. Syringes for each 300 mL (20 mL/kg) aliquot will be colour-coded for
identification purposes.
