Intervention/treatment

observation of renal affection in patients with liver cirrhosis

Detailed Description:

Liver cirrhosis is a chronic liver disease characterized by significant scarring and dysfunction. One of its common complications is renal affection , which can significantly impact patient outcomes . Aetiology of AKI can be categorized into three main types. These are prerenal (results from decreased renal perfusion), intrinsic renal (acute tubular necrosis), and postrenal AKI. In patients on admission, acute tubular necrosis is a common type of intrinsic AKI . The development of portal hypertension in patients with liver cirrhosis leading to a reduction in systemic vascular resistance as a result of primary arterial vasodilation in the splanchnic circulation is the primary cause of AKI in cirrhotics. This mechanism primarily leads to hepatorenal syndrome. In addition, the underlying causes of liver cirrhosis can be the cause of intrinsic renal disease . Early identification and management of AKI may improve outcomes. AKI in patients with liver cirrhosis in Egypt and their impact on inpatient mortality are largely unknown. This study was aimed at determining the prevalence, precipitating factors, predictors, and in-hospital mortality of AKI in patients with liver cirrhosis admitted at Al-Rajhi liver hospital at Egypt .
