| Core Tip |
Data regarding the optimal time of paracentesis and outcomes among patients with cirrhosis and ascites are scarce. We evaluated the outcomes of 185 patients with cirrhosis and ascites who underwent paracentesis within the 12 h following admission (65 patients) compared to patients who underwent paracentesis later than 12 h (120 patients) and we found that early paracentesis is associated with fewer complications, lower in-hospital mortality and shorter length of stay. |
