Ascitic Fluid Analysis in the Differential Diagnosis of Ascites: Focus on Cirrhotic Ascites [PDF]
Ascites is the pathologic accumulation of fluid within the peritoneal cavity. Because many diseases can cause ascites, in particular cirrhosis, samples of ascitic fluid are commonly analyzed in order to develop a differential diagnosis. The concept of transudate versus exudate, as determined by total protein measurements, is outdated and the use of ...

Distribution of ceftazidime in ascitic fluid [PDF]
The pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime were investigated in eight normal subjects and eight patients with ascites after intravenous administration of 1 g of the drug. Samples of blood and ascitic fluid were collected for 6 h after dosage, and urine samples were collected for 24 h. Pharmacokinetic data were calculated by using a one-compartment model.
