Summary

Acute portal hypertension, as measured by rapid rise in hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) can lead to further dreaded complications, including acute variceal bleeding (AVB) AVB: 6-week mortality rates of around 15-20% in patients with chronic liver disease without ACLF.The overall prevalence of UGH in cirrhotic patients with AD was 34.4% and 35.7% in patients with ACLF.AVB is a well-recognized precipitant leading to the occurrence and development of ACLF. AVB is a well-recognized precipitant leading to the occurrence and development of ACLF. Medical therapy for esophageal variceal bleeding (EVB) aims to reduce the splanchnic blood flow and portal pressure. The most common vasoactive agents include terlipressin, vasopressin, somatostatin, and octreotide.
