358.2.1.4 HVPG (Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient)
5: portal HTN
10: clinically significant
12: variceal bleeding risk
358.2.1.5 Ascites
- SAAG ⥠1.1: portal HTN
- SAAG < 1.1: peritoneal carcinomatosis, TB, pancreatitis
- Treatment: Na < 2 g/d + spironolactone:furosemide 100:40 + LVP + TIPS
358.2.1.7 SBP
- PMN > 250/mm³
- E. coli, Klebsiella, S. pneumoniae

- Prophylaxis: norfloxacin / ciprofloxacin
358.2.1.8 Variceal Bleeding
- Octreotide / terlipressin
- Ceftriaxone (improves survival)
- EGD with banding within 12 hours
- TIPS rescue or early
- Hgb target 7-8 (conservative)
358.2.1.9 Variceal Prophylaxis
- Primary: β-blocker (propranolol, nadolol, carvedilol) or EVL
- Secondary: β-blocker + EVL
- TIPS for refractory
358.2.1.10 Hepatic Encephalopathy
- Lactulose (target 2-3 soft BMs)
- Rifaximin for recurrence
- Treat precipitants
- Donât restrict protein
358.2.1.11 HRS

| Complication | Diagnosis | Treatment |
|---|---|---|
| Ascites | SAAG ⥠1.1 | Na restriction, diuretics, LVP, TIPS |
| SBP | PMN > 250 | Ceftriaxone + albumin |
| Variceal bleeding | EGD | Octreotide + ceftriaxone + banding + TIPS |

358.2.3 Special Topics
358.2.3.1 Conservative Transfusion in Variceal Bleeding
- TRIGGER trial: restrictive (Hgb 7) better than liberal
- Avoid over-transfusion + worsening portal pressure
358.2.3.2 Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Cirrhotic Bleeding
- Reduces SBP + mortality
- Even without ascites
- Ceftriaxone 1 g daily à 7 days
