ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Cardiac dysfunction in patients with cirrhosisoccurs in the setting of a circulatory dysfunction characterizedby a marked splanchnic arterial vasodilation. Circulatory changescan lead to the cardiac dilatation of the left chambers and thedevelopment of functional changes in the heart. The present studyis intended to assess cardiac functions in patients of liver cirrhosis.Material andmethods:
It was a cross sectional study conductedamong 74 diagnosed cases of liver cirrhosis, admitted todepartment of general medicine, KIMS Hospital during the 6months study duration.Results:
Overall LVDD was diagnosed in 59 cases (79.73%).Out of which, 47.29% cases presented with Stage 1 (impairedrelaxation) LVDD, Stage 2 LVDD (pseudo normal) among31.08% and only one patient had severe restrictive type of(Stage 3) LVDD.Conclusion:
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction iscommonly associated with advancement of hepaticdysfunction while systolic function is maintained till advancedhepatic failure
