Overview
Laboratory Findings
- Complete blood count and differential count - elevated leukocytes due to infection
- Serum electrolytes and renal function - low blood sodium
- Liver function tests - elevated liver parameters (e.g bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase)
- Urinalysis
- Significant proteinuria or hematuria may be present
- Increased urine specific gravity and osmolality
- Urine electrolytes - urine creatinine and sodium. Patients with low urine sodium excretions (< 5 mEq/L) are at a greater risk of developing HRS
- Prothrombin time (PT) - prolonged
- Blood ammonia levels - elevated
- Serum creatinine - elevated
- Blood cultures
- Alpha-fetoprotein
- Blood albumin - decreased
