Continuous versus inpatient prophylaxis of the first episode of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis with norfloxacin
Maria Teresa Novella,Ricard Solà,Germán Soriano,Montserrat Andreu,Jordi Gana,Jordi Ortiz,Susanna Coll,Miriam Sàbat,Maria Vilà,Carlos Guarner,Francisco Vilardell +10 more
TL;DR: Continuous long‐term selective intestinal decontamination with norfloxacin is effective in preventing the first spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in cirrhotic patients at high risk, however, the emergence of infections caused by norfl oxacin‐resistant bacteria must be weighed carefully against the benefits of continuous long-term prophylaxis.

TL;DR: Long‐term antibiotic prophylaxis should be restricted to highly selected groups of cirrhotic patients at high‐risk of infection, mainly because of the severity of infections caused by sensitive E. coli resistant to norfloxacin.

Hemodynamic changes in patients developing effective hypovolemia after total paracentesis
María Vila,Ricard Solà,Lluis Molina,Montserrat Andreu,Susanna Coll,Jordi Gana,Judith Marquez,Joaquin Palá,Felipe Bory,Silvia Carrasco Pons,Luis Szescielinski,Wladimiro Jiménez +11 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that effective hypovolemia after paracentesis in cirrhosis is predominantly due to an accentuation of the arteriolar vasodilation already present in these patients.
