Abstract:
Bacterial infection is frequently seen in patients with liver cirrhosis,and the most common type of bacterial infection is spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP).In clinical practice,antibacterial agents are widely used in the treatment of SBP.In addition,antibacterial agents can reduce rebleeding and mortality rates in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.However,in order to avoid bacterial resistance,the appropriate use of antibacterial agents is very important.This article reviews the indications and resistance of antibacterial agents in patients with liver cirrhosis.
