Summary

Albumin is commonly used plasma expander in patients of decompensated cirrhosis and has been found to have many beneficial effects, with few studies showing that maintenance of serum albumin levels above 3 g/dl has improved outcomes and mortality leading to widespread utilization in patients with cirrhosis of the liver.

While 20% human albumin solution has been subject to in-depth analysis along several fronts, it's effects on coagulation parameters is unknown. With cirrhosis being a state of dysregulated clotting and bleeding, it is imperative to know the effects of such a widely used plasma expander on coagulation.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of albumin on coagulation parameters in patients of decompensated cirrhosis.

Conditions

  • Decompensated Cirrhosis

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Albumin

20% human albumin solution infusion, to raise and maintain serum albumin levels above 3.0 g/dl. Human albumin solution will be given to those enrolled in the study having serum albumin levels ≤ 3 g/dl to maintain the serum albumin levels above 3 g/dl.

OTHER

Standard of Care

Standard treatment that the patient would receive had they not been included in the trial.
