NON-INVASIVE HEMODYNAMIC ASSESSMENT IN CIRRHOSIS: CHILD-PUGH STRATIFICATION AND A PLATELET THRESHOLD TO DEFINE THE HYPERDYNAMIC STATE Open
Introduction and Objectives: Cirrhosis initially presents a hyperdynamic profile—elevated cardiac output (CO), reduced systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and arterial pressure—which may later evolve into low-output cardiocirculatory failur…
