SBP is a serious complication in patients with cirrhosis with high mortality rates (20–40%).

Patients at risk of developing SBP can be categorized in three groups firstly patients with active variceal bleeding patients with ascitic fluid protein <10 g/dl secondly those with a prior episode of SBP.

The most common bacteria causing SBP are gram-negative Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and gram-positive Streptococcus pneumoniae usually only a single organism is involved. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), an infection of ascitic fluid without a definitive intra-abdominal source that can be surgically treated is a common complication in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP),is treated with a 10 to 14 day course of antibiotics .
