Prediction of 28‐day mortality in acute decompensation of cirrhosis through the presence of multidrug‐resistant infections at admission

Abstract

Infections are the leading reason for the occurrence of AD; SBP is the most common infection, and E. coli is the commonest microorganism based on this single-center study of Indian patients with AD of cirrhosis. There is a high prevalence of MDROs among culture-positive infections that independently predict 28-day mortality in AD of cirrhosis.
