About
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare three groups of intravenous fluids and their impact on labor: 1) 125 mL/hr of 5% dextrose in normal saline 2) 250 mL/hr of normal saline 3) 250 mL/hr of 5% dextrose in normal saline
Full description
Currently, patients who arrive to labor and delivery automatically receive IV fluid hydration as part of a standard order set. The current default IV fluid order is 125mL/hr of 5% dextrose, either in normal saline or lactated ringers.
Any patient delivering for the first time presenting to labor and delivery in active labor will be screened. If they meet inclusion requirements they will be offered enrollment.
Subjects will be blindly randomized to receive one of three different types of IV fluids:
5% dextrose Normal saline (Normal saline plus 5g/dl of glucose) at 125 mL/hr (the current LBMMC default inpatient IV order set)
Normal saline (a solution containing sodium and chloride) at 250 mL/hr
2.5% dextrose Normal saline at 125 mL/hr
