title: [Renal impairment after spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in chronic severe viral hepatitis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the clinical features, prognosis and influence factors of renal impairment (RI) in chronic severe viral hepatitis with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP).
  
  
  METHODS
  129 discharged patients with chronic severe viral hepatitis(CSVH) complicated with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis were analyzed retrospectively.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Renal impairment is a frequent event in CSVH patients with SBP. SBP-R I is functional in nature, it may be followed by a rapidly progressive or a stable disease course, or may be reversed after recovery of the infection.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Independent prognostic factors were age, clinical course of liver disease, other infection or diabetes, severe renal impairment, serum sodium level before SBP and negative response to antibiotic therapy.
