Summary

Point-of-care echocardiography (POC-Echo) is used to determine left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction (LVDD), inferior vena cava (IVC) dynamics and volume status in cirrhosis and Acute-on-chronic liver failure ACLF accurately.

We will assess IVC dynamics, LV systolic function \[LV ejection fraction (EF) \& cardiac output (CO)\], and diastolic dysfunction (E/e', e' and E/A ratio) and urinary biomarkers (cystatin C and NGAL) in patients with cirrhosis and Refractory Ascites.

Conditions

  • Cirrhosis, Liver
  • Acute-On-Chronic Liver Failure
  • Refractory Ascites
  • Ascites
  • Acute Kidney Injury
