Normosol-R pH 7.4 will be used whenever an isotonic crystalloid is ordered

(Sodium + Potassium + Calcium) - (Chloride + Lactate) in mmol/L

This composite outcome will be considered present if at least one of the following occur: (1) A patient dies prior to the earlier of hospital discharge or day 30; (2) A patient receives new renal replacement therapy between enrollment and day 30, or (3) A patient has persistent renal dysfunction at the earlier of hospital discharge or day 30 (persistent renal dysfunction is defined as ≥ 200% of creatinine from baseline)

The initiation of any renal replacement therapy between enrollment and 30 days censored at hospital discharge in a patient not known to have previously received renal replacement therapy.

A patient will meet this outcome if they meet Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) creatinine criteria for stage II acute kidney injury or higher

Final creatinine value before discharge or 30 days after enrollment ≥ 200% of baseline creatinine.

Dose of vasopressor (in norepinephrine equivalents, µg/kg/min)

Intensive care unit-free days to day 28 (ICU-free days) will be defined as the number of days from the time of the patient's physical transfer out of the ICU until day 28 after enrollment. Patients who die prior to day 28 after enrollment received a value of 0 for ICU-free days. Patients who never transfer out of the ICU prior to day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for ICU-free days. Patients who transferred out of the ICU, return to the ICU, and are not subsequently transferred out of the ICU again before day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for ICU-free days. For patients who transfer out of the ICU, are readmitted to the ICU, and subsequently transfer out of the ICU again prior to day 28 after enrollment, ICU-free days will be awarded based on the time of the final transfer out of the ICU prior to day 28 after enrollment.

Vasopressor-free days to day 28 will be defined as the number of days from the time of vasopressor cessation until day 28 after enrollment. Patients who die prior to day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for vasopressor-free days. Patients who never cease to receive vasopressors prior to day 28 after enrollment receive a value of 0 for vasopressor-free days. Patients who achieve vasopressor cessation, return to receiving vasopressors, and do not again achieve vasopressor cessation before day 28 after enrollment receive a value of 0 for vasopressor-free days. For patients who achieve vasopressor cessation, return to receiving vasopressors, and subsequently achieve cessation of vasopressors again prior to day 28 after enrollment, vasopressor-free days will be awarded based on the time of the final cessation of vasopressors prior to day 28 after enrollment. Survivors who never receive vasopressors received 28 vasopressor-free days.

Renal replacement therapy-free days to day 28 (RRT- free days) will be defined as the number of days from the time of the final RRT treatment until day 28 after enrollment. Patients who die prior to day 28 after enrollment receive a value of 0 for RRT-free days. Patients who continue to receive RRT through day 28 after enrollment receive a value of 0 for RRT-free days. Patients who achieve RRT cessation, return to receiving RRT, and do not again achieve RRT cessation before day 28 after enrollment receive a value of 0 for RRT-free days. For patients who achieve RRT cessation, return to receiving RRT, and subsequently achieve cessation of RRT again prior to day 28 after enrollment, RRT-free days will be awarded based on the time of the final RRT treatment prior to day 28 after enrollment. Survivors who never receive RRT will be awarded 28 RRT-free days.

Ventilator-free days to day 28 (VFDs) will be defined as the number of days from the time of initiating unassisted breathing (breathing without support of the mechanical ventilator) until day 28 after enrollment. Patients who die prior to day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for VFDs. Patients who never achieve unassisted breathing prior to day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for VFDs. Patients who achieve unassisted breathing, returned to assisted breathing, and do not again achieve unassisted breathing before day 28 after enrollment will receive a value of 0 for VFDs. For patients who achieve unassisted breathing, return to assisted breathing, and subsequently achieve unassisted breathing again prior to day 28 after enrollment, VFDs will be awarded based on the time of the final initiation of unassisted breathing prior to day 28 after enrollment. Survivors who never experience assisted breathing will receive 28 VFDs.
