HEPATIC ENCEPHALOPATHY ASSOCIATED WITH CIRRHOSIS OF THE LIVER. MODERN APPROACHES TO PATHOGENESIS, CLINIC, TREATMENT
Abstract
The importance of the literature and its own materials presented in the article is the significant prevalence of encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis of the liver (it is 30-45 % among patients with severe encephalopathy). Minimal encephalopathy significantly reduces the quality of life of patients with liver cirrhosis. The international classification of clinical variants of chronic encephalopathy has not been sufficiently extended. The goal of the work is to select various clinical variants of chronic encephalopathy and to evaluate new pathogenetic methods of treatment aimed at increasing the effectiveness of therapy in patients with cirrhosis of the liver.
