Complications -
• Hypo-albuminaemia - the ascites fluid is an exudate
• Electrolyte imbalance - hyponatraemia with hyperkalaemic acidosis
• Increased thrombogenesis - due to haemo-concentration and immobility.
Arterial, venous and intra-cerebral thrombosis occurs
• Cardio-respiratory failure - effusions, ascites and ARDS
• Pre-renal failure and multiple organ failure
• Ovarian torsion
