Hepatobiliary/GI Flashcards
obstructive jaundice bili type
conjugated bili (DIRECT) that cannot get into circulation
does obstructive jaundice have plasma bili
yes
does obstructive jaundice have urine bili
yes
hemolytic jaundice bili type
unconjugated (INDIRECT) because its tightly bound to albumin
does hemolytic jaundice have plasma bili
yes
does hemolytic jaundice have urine bili
no
markers of liver injury
AST
ALT
AP
markers of liver function
albumin
total bili
albumin levels in cirrhosis
low albumin
total bili levels in liver failure
incr unconjugated
decr conjugated
hepatocellular abnormality levels to check
ALT/AST
cholestatic abnormality check levels of
AP +- TB
NALD liver enzymes
ALT>AST
ALD liver enzymes
AST>ALT
cirrhoiss
decr albumin
incr sinusoid resistance
incr portal pressure
ascites
treat ascites
suck out fluids
give albumin
