Albumin injections are administered to patients primarily to increase blood volume and maintain oncotic pressure, especially in cases of hypoalbuminemia, liver disease, or after major surgeries. They can also be used to treat conditions like shock, burns, or severe infections where fluid balance is crucial. Additionally, albumin may help in the management of certain kidney disorders by reducing protein loss in urine. Overall, it plays a vital role in fluid management and maintaining circulatory stability.
