Abstract
SBP is a common, life-threatening complication of cirrhosis that imposes a substantial and growing healthcare cost burden. Treatment guidelines from the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases recommend albumin administration in conjunction with antibiotics for SBP management due to albumin’s demonstrated clinical efficacy and safety. We examined the relationship between albumin infusion timing and total hospitalization cost among cirrhotic inpatients who developed SBP during hospitalization.
