Low‐Dose vs. Standard Care Iv Human Albumin During Large‐Volume Paracentesis in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis: A Systematic Review

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cirrhosis is a global health concern, with ascites being the most prevalent decompensating event. Intravenous (IV) human albumin (HA) is administered during large‐volume paracentesis (LVP) to prevent complications. The standard (6–8 g HA/L ascites) is empirically chosen, potentially leading to overtreatment and added costs.
