Clinical Guidelines for Human Albumin Use

National Plasma Products Expert Advisory Group
Guidelines for the Usage of Human Albumin Solution (HAS)



1.

Ascites and large volume paracentesis:





Where management of ascites is refractory to sodium restriction (90mmol/day) HAS is indicated following paracentesis (British Society of Gastroenterology Guidelines, 2006; EASL clinical practice guidelines, 2010). Paracentesis without albumin replacement leads to a fall in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, maximal at 6 hours, and can result in circulatory and renal dysfunction.





Where there is normal premorbid renal function:





  • Administer 1 unit (100ml) HAS 20% (STAT) following every 3 litres of ascites drained.







Where renal function is impaired consider either:





  • Administration of 100ml HAS 20% per 2 litres of ascites.







or adherence to the protocol for hepatorenal syndrome (see below).


2.

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP):





Administration of HAS in the setting of SBP reduces the incidence of renal failure and reduces mortality (British Society of Gastroenterology Guidelines, 2006; EASL clinical practice guidelines, 2010):





  • Day 1: 1.5g HAS / kg given over a 6 hour period:







  • Day 3: 1g HAS / kg given over 3 hours




3.

Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS)





Administration of HAS and vasoconstrictors are effective therapy in 60% of patients with HRS and is associated with improved survival (EASL clinical practice guidelines, 2010):.





  • Terlipressin: 0.5 – 2mg iv every 4 hours, plus







  • Day 1: 1g / kg HAS







  • Day 2 - 16: 20 – 40 g HAS / day







Rx continued until serum creatinine falls below 130mol/l. NB. Where creatinine is rising despite Rx, 60g HAS /day may be clinically indicated.





Therapeutic apheresis (Therapeutic Plasma Exchange TPE)





TPE has a clearly defined role in a large variety of conditions that are presumed to be immunologically mediated. The indications for TPE are protean and listed in a recent guideline produced by the American Society for Apheresis (Szczepiorkowski et al 2010). The standard replacement fluid for TPE is 5% HAS with or without saline. FFP / Octaplas may be indicated dependent on the indication ie. TTP. The volume treated per procedure is usually: 1–1.5 total plasma volumes (TPV). Procedures may continue daily for up to several weeks in some cases.


Other indications


There is little evidence to support the use of HAS in other circumstances (Cochrane Injuries Group 2011; Jacob et al 2008; Kuper et al 2007; Perel and Roberts 2011) and these require discussion with pharmacy or haematology medical staff before release can be sanctioned, unless specifically requested a Consultant Physician with frequent experience of HAS administration (eg. gastroenterology Consultant).


Volume expansion – Synthetic alternatives or Saline may be used for temporary intravascular volume expansion. No studies have convincingly shown that 5% Albumin confers any survival advantage.


Requesting Human Albumin Solution:


Human Albumin Solution (HAS) is available from the Hospital Pharmacy. The indication for its use should be documented in the case notes and there should be written documentation of its prescription.


The products in stock are:
Human Albumin Solution 5% 500ml (approx. 25g albumin) & 100ml (approx. 5g albumin)

Human Albumin Solution 20% 100ml (approx. 20g albumin)


Administration:


20% Albumin is hyperoncotic. The 100ml volume will expand to approximately 400mls within 25 minutes of transfusion. Rapid administration can lead to rapid volume expansion and cardiac failure. There is no UK published data regarding 20% Albumin infusion rates; in clinical practice it is usual to infuse 100mls over 30 minutes (personal communication AL/RS), but infusion rate varies and depends on clinical circumstances.
