CAPITAL OFFLOAD-SHOCK will aim to answer if early use of renal replacement therapy, like dialysis, in patients with reduced body fluids causing the heart to be unable to pump enough blood through the body reduces in-hospital death when compared to the current standard of care. The current standard of care is to wait until renal replacement therapy is clinically necessary.
The trial will evaluate the in-hospital mortality between starting renal replacement therapy (RRT) immediately upon confirmation of eligibility and consent and using standard medical therapy without RRT unless one of the following occurs: 1) clinical volume overload refractory to diuresis with high-dose intravenous furosemide plus either thiazide-like diuretic and/or acetazolamide, resulting in pulmonary edema, necessitation ventilation with FiO2 \> 50%, 2) hyperkalemia with serum potassium \>6mmol/L, or 3) severe metabolic acidosis with pH \<7.20 and bicarb \<=12 mmol/L thought to be due to renal insufficiency.
