Abstract

Objective To explore the risk factors of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in patients with liver cirrhosis.Methods 398 patients with liver cirrhosis were divided into spontaneous bacterial peritonitis group(n=135)and non-spontaneous bacterial peritonitis group(n=263).The predisposing factors in the two groups were compared.Results There were significant differences in history of SBP,ascites period,diabetes mellitus,total protein in ascitic fluid,digestive tract hemorrhage,Child-Pugh grades,antibiotic prophylaxis,blood Na+,serum TBil,ALB and PT between the two groups(P0.01).Conclusions The incidences of SBP is related to some factors,which might be properly managed in order to reduce the occurrence of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in patients with liver cirrhosis.
