This will be a single-arm, single-blind sequential …
Role of Sarcopenia and Nutritional/Physical Therapy Intervention in Post-TIPS Hepatic Encephalopathy
The placement of TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt) is the most effective strategy to treat complications of portal hypertension. However, the threat of developing post-TIPS complications diminishes its use and applicability. Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is the most feared and frequent post-TIPS complication, affecting between 25-54% of patients. Available treatments against …
