A member asked:
Why is albumin used in treating sepsis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always used: Albumin is one of many medical tools that may be used in the management of sepsis. Albumen will stay inside the capillaries (not leak into the tissues) and help keep blood pressure up when it falls during the illness.
