2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Patients with continued cognitive impairment after episodes of HE have few options beyond lactulose and rifaximin in the US. Therefore using IV albumin in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, which could beneficially impact inflammation, could be an additional approach to improve cognition. This 6 week trial will study changes in cognition, HRQOL and inflammation in patients with covert HE after prior overt HE using multiple IV albumin infusions vs. placebo.
