GI - PowerPoint/4 Flashcards
metabolic cirrhosis is usually caused by
genetic metabolic storage disorders
variable color feces is to which jaundice
intrahep
ascites
accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity
cirrhosis - alcoholic liver disease: enlargement of the liver is to
initial stage - fatty liver
advanced cirrhosis manifestations
5
- ascites
- peripheral edema
- esophageal varices
- jaundice
- encephalopathy
irreversible inflammatory, fibrotic liver disease
cirrhosis
excessive hemolysis of RBC leads to increased what in blood
unconjugated bilirubin that the liver cannot process
renal sodium and water retention can cause (liver)
ascites
cirrhosis caused by biliary cirrhosis is associated with
immune disorders
cirrhosis can be caused by
4
- alcoholic liver disease
- biliary cirrhosis
- postnecrotic cirrhosis
- metabolic issues
causes abdominal distention
ascites
cirrhosis - alcoholic liver disease: inflammation, cell necrosis, and fibrous tissue formation
2nd - alcoholic hepatitis
posthep or obstructive jaundice buildup in blood
increased conjugated bilirubin because obstruction blow flow to intestine and causes backup to liver and blood
light colored stools
jaundice
dark urine
jaundice
jaundice is characterized by
3
- dark urine
- yellow discoloration of sclera and skin
- light colored stools
cirrhosis tx
7
- avoid alcohol
- supportive/symptomatic tx
- dietary
- balance electrolytes
- paracentesis
- antibiotics
- liver transplant
cirrhosis linked with chronic hepatitis
postnecrotic cirrhosis
cirrhosis - alcoholic liver disease: third stage, end stage
2
- fibrotic tissue replaces normal tissue
2. little normal function remains
ascites causes what three things
- abdominal distention
- increased abdominal girth
- weight gain
cirrhosis
irreversible inflammatory, fibrotic liver disease
accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity
ascites
increased conjugated bilirubin in blood
posthep or obstructive
caused by hyperbilirubinemia
jaundice/icterus
ascites mortality rate
25% in 1 year if associated with cirrhosis
cirrhosis - alcoholic liver disease: initial stage of fatty liver sx and outcome
asymptomatic and reversible with reduced alcohol intake
alcoholic hepatitis is which stage of alcoholic liver disease cirrhosis
2nd
cirrhosis - alcoholic liver disease stages
3
- initial - fatty liver
- second - alcoholic hepatitis
- third - end stage cirrhosis
normal to dark feces is which jaundice
pre and hemolytic
