• W2129595649 abstract "Background & Aims Patients with cirrhosis are prone to infection which is a frequent precipitant of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). Clinical studies have examined the importance of inflammation and infection in modulating the manifestation of symptoms of HE in acute liver failure and patients with cirrhosis and minimal/low grade HE. It would be logical to presume that this relationship persists in patients who develop severe HE in cirrhosis although this has not been examined to date. Methods We report the findings of a prospective audit of 100 consecutive patients with cirrhosis admitted between Jan 2000 and March 2008 to a liver Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where HE was the primary indication for admission (59% Grade 3; 41% Grade 4). Haematological and microbiological data were collected at ICU admission, and organ scores and outcomes were recorded. Results 46% of patients had positive cultures taken within ±48 h from admission to ICU [25% blood] and a further 22% were culture negative but had evidence of systemic inflammation (SIRS). SIRS score (p = 0.03) and SOFA score (p = 0.006) were significantly higher in those patients with Grade 4 HE, who were also less likely to survive (p <0.001). HE grade/coma score did not correlate with ammonia, biochemistry or MELD score. Fifty-two percent of patients survived their ICU stay while the remainder developed progressive multiorgan failure and died; 38% survived to discharge, and 16% were transplanted. Conclusions These data support an association between infection/SIRS and not ammonia, in patients with cirrhosis that develop severe HE. The presence or absence of infection/SIRS did not determine survival. Patients with cirrhosis are prone to infection which is a frequent precipitant of hepatic encephalopathy (HE).
