Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Pathophysiologic Assessment and Liver Function Test

171
In clinical practice, the direct measurement of hepatic blood flow to evaluate liver function presents significant challenges due to the intricate and specialized nature of the necessary techniques. Consequently, healthcare professionals often rely on empirical estimates derived from thorough patient examinations and liver function tests to gauge liver health. Among the tools at their disposal, the Child–Pugh and MELD scoring systems stand out for their ability to categorize and assess...

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

2.6K
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatology and Gastroenterology
  • Clinical Practice Guidelines
  • Patient-Centered Care

Background:

  • Variability in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) care delivery impacts disease management and patient quality of life.
  • Effective patient-provider consultations are crucial for optimal PBC management but vary in quality.
  • A Delphi study was conducted to establish consensus recommendations for improving PBC consultations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop consensus-based recommendations for standardizing and enhancing patient-provider consultations in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).
  • To provide a framework for optimizing care delivery and addressing patient needs in PBC management.
  • To improve the quality of interaction between healthcare providers and patients with PBC.

Main Methods:

sicca syndrome
symptom assessment
  • An international survey of 151 healthcare professionals was conducted.
  • A 9-member Delphi panel, including PBC experts, physicians, patients, and advocates, was formed.
  • Delphi methodology was employed to reach consensus on best practice recommendations, with ≥75% agreement defining consensus.

Main Results:

  • Fifteen best practice recommendations were identified across three key areas: diagnosis/first consultation, symptom assessment/ongoing management, and wider care/support.
  • Recommendations address patient needs concerning symptom burden, specialist referrals, and connection to patient support organizations.
  • The consensus-based recommendations serve as a resource for providers to improve PBC care.

Conclusions:

  • Specific recommendations are provided for healthcare providers to optimize consultations for patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).
  • Implementing these recommendations aims to improve the overall quality of care and enhance patient satisfaction in PBC management.
  • Standardized consultations can lead to better disease management and improved quality of life for individuals with PBC.
