Summary

The AIM of the study is to study the efficacy of intravenous albumin and standard medical treatment as compared to standard medical treatment alone in ameliorating/preventing SIRS and improving survival at 28 days .The project will be conducted in ILBS from august 2018 to December 2019Concept is to understand the immunology, pathophysiology and effects of albumin in the management of ACLF for betterment of the patient's condition and early recovery.

All ACLF patients will be included as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria , after taking informed consent from the patient or their relatives. Will be evaluated for the possible risk factors for the development of SIRS/sepsis in ACLF patients and possible beneficial factors for resolution of SIRS /sepsis in ACLF patients. The effects of albumin administration as per this protocol versus standard medical treatment alone will be reviewed If patient develops allergic reactions to albumin, fluid overload, albumin will be stopped and patient will be treated accordingly to medical condition.
