Common questions
What does Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis (SBP) Diagnosis & Treatment do?
Use to confirm SBP at PMN ≥ 250/mm³, choose empiric antibiotics by setting, add albumin to reduce hepatorenal syndrome, and decide secondary prophylaxis.
How is the result calculated?
PMN ≥ 250/mm³ → SBP. Community → cefotaxime/ceftriaxone; nosocomial/high-resistance → broad-spectrum per local resistance. Albumin 1.5 g/kg day 1 + 1 g/kg day 3. Prior history → long-term quinolone prophylaxis.
Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
