Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about clinical application of pathogenic metagenomic next-generation sequencing to optimize the diagnosis of infection in decompensated cirrhotic patients. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. mNGS testing in optimizing anti-infective drug use in patients with acute decompensation, including response to empiric antibiotic therapy.

  2. Proportion of patients with re-compensation.

  3. The positive rate of mNGS in patients with acute decompensated cirrhosis and the characteristics of pathogen.

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    patients received mNGS test

    After enrolment, patients will receive mNGS test.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Positive rate of mNGS test in AD patients [at enrolment]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. 28- and 90-day transplantation-free mortality [at 28-day and 90-day after enrolment]

    2. The rate of development of acute kidney injury and acute-on-chronic liver failure [up to 12 weeks]

    3. Proportion of hospital readmissions due to infections [up to 12 weeks]

    4. Proportion of progression to SIRS or sepsis [up to 12 weeks]

    5. Consistency with blood culture results [at enrollment]
