ICUPro ALBU

• The prevalence of hypoalbuminemia is higher about 70% amongst hospitalized, critically ill, and elderly patients. 
• Albumin is the most abundant plasma protein with a concentration ranging from 35 to 50 g/l (3.4 to 5.4).
• Albumin represents 50% of the total protein content of plasma.
• Human serum albumin accounts for about 60% of the total proteins and contributes to almost 80% of the intravascular oncotic pressure.
• Albumin is useful in the pre-and post-operative period following liver transplantation to control ascites and edema and replace the loss of ascetic fluid.
