Serum Ascites Albumin Gradient (SAAG) …

SAAG guidelines. The current indication is that SAAG values above 1.1 g/dL are consistent with portal hypertension as the etiology of ascites, with 97% accuracy. The increase in hydrostatic pressure determines fluid to leave circulation and enter in the peritoneal space, creating the ascites fluid, while albumin molecules remain in the ...

06.02.2017 · Portal hypertension from cirrhosis with another cause of ascites like tubercular peritonitis or peritoneal carcinomatosis. SAAG ≥1.1 gm/dl in such cases. Points to remember: If SAAG is definitive: determine SAAG only on the 1st paracentesis specimen and donot repeat in subsequent paracentesis. If SAAG is borderline (1 or 1.1 gm/dl): analysis in subsequent paracentesis usually provides ...

Management of Decompensated Liver Disease

SAAG can differentiate ascites resulting from portal hypertension and from other causes. It is more useful than the protein based exudate / transudate concept. Calculate SAAG by: SAAG = (serum albumin) – (ascites albumin) Obtain both values on the same day. If SAAG 11g/L then ascites very likely the result of portal hypertension (97% accuracy).

Cirrhosis: Practice Essentials, Overview, Etiology

15.10.2020 · Portal hypertension is defined as a sustained elevation of portal pressure above normal. An HVPG of 8 mm Hg is believed to be the threshold above which ascites potentially can develop. An HVPG of 12 mm Hg is the threshold for the potential formation of varices. High portal pressures may predispose patients to an increased risk of variceal hemorrhage.

Ascitic Fluid Analysis | Ascites Interpretation | …

Serum ascitic albumin gradient (SAAG) The serum ascitic albumin gradient (SAAG) indirectly measures portal pressure and can be used to determine if ascites is due to portal hypertension. SAAG calculation SAAG = (serum albumin) – (sscitic fluid albumin) Interpretation. A high SAAG (1.1g/dL) suggests the ascitic fluid is a transudate.

Cirrhotic Ascites - Cleveland Clinic

Portal hypertension is usually caused by liver cirrhosis or, less commonly, outflow obstruction from right-sided heart failure or Budd-Chiari syndrome. A SAAG value lower than 1.1g/dL indicates that the patient does not have portal hypertension-related ascites, and another cause of the ascites should be sought. Determination of the SAAG does not need to be repeated after the initial ...
