NCT04474262

Brief Summary

The patients with ACLF having Ascites who require ascitic tapping will undergone ascitic tapeither under albumin cover alone or with midodrine. The patient will be monitored for complication and changes of PICD. Study analysis will be done with primary objective being reduction in incidence of PICD.
