Incidence and Predictors of Post-TIPS Heart Failure in Patients With Cirrhosis

April 11, 2024 updated by: luo xuefeng, West China Hospital

Incidence and Predictors of Post-TIPS (Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) Heart Failure in Patients With Cirrhosis

The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Hyperdynamic circulation is a common Phenomenon in cirrhosis due to systemic and splanchnic vasodilatation, which may result cardic dysfunction and abnormal structure ,called cirrhotic cardiomyopathy(CCM). Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), as a effective technique to alleviates portal hypertension in cirrhotic patients, often be used to treat with refractory ascites and variceal bleeding which endoscopy and drug therapy are ineffective. However, owing to the increased shunting of blood from the splanchnic vascular bed into the central vascular bed, TIPS further exacerbates the hyperdynamic circulatory state, which may lead to heart failure.yet there are no convincing research to study the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt. The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhotic patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Patients with cirrhosis who underwent TIPS
Patients with cirrhosis who underwent TIPS due to complications of portal hypertension were inclueded for observation.
TIPS: Established distributary channel between the portal vein and hepatic vein via the jugular vein, portal vein blood directly shunts into the systemic circulation to reduce portal vein pressure to effectively prevent bleeding and refractory ascites.
