Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Restrictive fluid management

Experimental: Restrictive fluid management - Restrictive fluid management Targeting a negative or maximum 300ml positive daily fluid balance.

No intervention: Standard therapy - Randomized allocation of standard care at the clinician's discretion in accordance with current best practice.


Other interventions: Restrictive fluid management
Daily fluid input is restricted to drugs and nutrition. Fluid boluses and blood products can be given if clinically indicated. Matching fluid output to fluid input whenever possible using diuretics if needed, and additionally, if clinically necessary and plausible, commencing renal replacement therapy. If renal replacement therapy is not deemed clinically desirable, acceptance of a less than targeted fluid balance.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. 18-years or older and admitted to critical care with an arterial line in place
2. The patient has been in critical care for at least 12 hours but no more than 72 hours
3. The patient has AKI but is not receiving acute RRT:

For the purpose of the study AKI is defined the by the following criteria:
1. Increase in serum creatinine over 1.5-times above baseline without a decline of 27umol/l or more from the last preceding measurement (at least 12 hours apart) AND/OR
2. Overall urine output less than 0.5ml/kg/h (or 6ml/kg) for the previous 12h (with urine catheter in place for the period)
4. The patient is judged by the treating clinician not to be intravascularly hypovolemic
5. The patient is likely to remain in critical care for 48 hours after randomization
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
1. Active bleeding necessitating transfusion
2. Maintenance fluid therapy is necessary due to diabetic ketoacidosis, non-ketotic coma, severe burns or other clinical reason determined by the medical staff
3. Need for RRT due to intoxication of a dialyzable toxin
4. Commencement of RRT is expected in the next 6 hours
5. On chronic renal replacement therapy (maintenance dialysis or renal transplant)
6. Presence or a strong clinical suspicion of parenchymal AKI (for example glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, acute interstitial nephritis), or post-renal obstruction
7. Severe hyponatremia (Na <125mmol/L) or hypernatremia (Na >155mmol/L)
8. Need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or molecular absorbent recirculating system (MARS-therapy)
9. Pregnant or lactating
10. Patients who are not to receive full active treatment
11. No baseline creatinine available
12. Lack of consent
13. The patient has been enrolled in another trial where co-enrollment is not feasible
