About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Ascites Hepatic focused on measuring Hepatic Ascites, Liver Cirrhosis, Intraabdominal Hypertension, Paracentesis, Puncture and Drainage, Critical Illness, acute-on-chronic liver failure

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • liver cirrhosis diagnosis with ascites
  • ICU admission for medical reason

Exclusion Criteria:

  • prior liver transplant
  • haemorrhagic ascites
  • extreme severity: CLIF-SOFA number of organ failures 5 or more
  • less than 24 hours of ICU stay
  • Any of the following conditions at 24 hours of ICU stay:

    i. Hemorrhagic shock with active uncontrolled bleeding ii. Refractory shock (MAP<60mmHg) with multiple vasopressors iii. Predictably short ICU stay (<72 hours) iv. Therapeutic futility determined by the medical staff

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Intervention group - Continuous passive paracentesis

Control group - Large volume paracentesis

Arm Description

Ultrasound-guided placement of an intra-abdominal double lumen central venous catheter, using aseptic Seldinger technique, for continuous drainage of ascitic fluid up to 7 days in Intensive Care.

Ultrasound-guided intermittent large-volume paracentesis through 14 Gauge catheter performed and repeated during ICU stay according to standard-of-care clinical practice.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Renal function - creatinine clearance
estimated and measured creatinine clearance (mL/min)
Renal function - urine output
measured urine output (mL/min)
Renal function - renal replacement therapy
number of renal replacement therapy days
Multi-organ disfunction
Clinical multi-organ disfunction as assessed by severity scores: Sequencial Organ Failure Assessement (SOFA) and Chronic Liver Failure-SOFA (CLIF-SOFA). Both scores range [0-24] and higher scores reflect more severe organ dysfunctions and worse outcomes.

Secondary Outcome Measures

ICU Mortality rate
Mortality rate until discharge from the ICU
in hospital Mortality rate
Mortality rate until discharge from hospital admission
30 days Mortality rate
Mortality rate up to 30 days from ICU admission
Emergent liver transplant rate
liver transplant rate up to 28 days after ICU admission

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Liver cirrhosis patients in Intensive Care present intra-abdominal hypertension and this is an independent risk factor for increased organ disfunction and mortality. Patients will be randomized into intermittent or continuous passive paracentesis and the clinical results of these two strategies for preventing and treating intra-abdominal hypertension will compared.
Detailed Description
Intra-abdominal hypertension is an independent risk factors for increased mortality in Intensive Care patients and is highly prevalent in the critically ill cirrhotic patient. This study compares two strategies in minimizing intra-abdominal pressure and optimizing abdominal perfusion pressure in the prevention and treatment of intra-abdominal hypertension associated morbidity and mortality. Critically ill cirrhotic patients will be allocated into a standard-of-care large-volume paracentesis group (control) and a continuous passive paracentesis (intervention) group using randomization. Results will assess renal function and multi-organ function using standard clinical scales and vital outcomes.
