HepB vaccine/prophylaxis
• 95% of immunocompetent pts develop antibody
(anti-HBs)
• Only 50% of HD pts develop antibody
• May be given to pregnant pts
• 3 doses at 1, 2 and 6 months
• HBIG Alone:
– sexual contacts of carriers and household
members of acute Hep B
• HBIG + vaccine (exposed is HBsAg negative)
– blood exposure to pt w/acute Hep B
– newborns of Hep B mothers
Treatment of CHB
• HBeAg + HBV DNA > 20000, ALT > 2 x ULN
• Observe for 6 months and treat if no
spontaneous conversion.
• Consider Liver Bx
• Rx: Peg IFN o
• Entecavir, tenofovir, telbivudine
• Continue Rx for 6 months after seroconversion

Hepatitis C
• Most common liver disease in the US
• IVDU, cocaine use, prisons, blood products prior
to 1990, tattoo
• Genotype 1 most common in the US
• 85 % of Hep C infected become chronic
– 25% cirrhosis post 20-25 years of infection
– 5 %/yr risk to develop HCC in those with cirrhosis
• 5% sexual transmission over 10-20 yrs
• <5% trans placental transmission. HIV co-infection
increases transmission rate.
Serological Tests
• Third generation anti-HCV+ >95% sensitive
• If high pre-test probability and anti-HCV
negative can do PCR testing (more often in
renal failure or transplant)

Most common cause is cirrhosis
Manifestations:
Hepatic Encephalopathy
Gastro-esophageal Varices
Ascites
Approach to the Patient with Ascites
ASCITES
Workup
• Need to know if ascites is CHF, cirrhosis or
malignancy (exudate)
• Serum-ascites albumin gradient > 1.1 = transudate
(Portal HTN)
• If ascites protein > 2.5, then CHF
• If ascites protein < 2.5, then cirrhosis
• <1.1 = ascites is NOT from portal hypertension
– “Higher SAAG = higher pressure”
ASCITES
Workup
Tap all new ascites
• Tap all ascites in cirrhotics with clinical
change
• Labs
– < 250 cells/μl
– 1 neutrophil/250 RBC
– 2 lymphocyte/750 RBC
– Innoculate cultures at the bedside
– Gram stain
• If TB is suspected, you need a peritonal bx

Treatment
2g Na restriction/day
No benefit in restricting fluids
Spironolactone 100mg/day + Lasix 40mg/day
Large volume paracentesis
TIPS for paracentesis-resistant ascites
SBP
• Translocation of bacteria across they bowel wall into
susceptible ascites.
• Subclinical
• Fever, Abd pain,encepahlopathy
• DX:
• PMN > 250
• GN organisms E.coli most common
• Treat SBP with 3rd generation cephalosporin IV for 5
day and then PO Abx
• Pplx with oral quinolones after SBP
• IV Albumin to prevent HRS.
Hepatic Encephalopathy
• Ppting Factors:
• GI bleed, SBP, Sepsis, sedatives, constipation,
electrolyte abnormalities, acute liver injury, HCC,
surgery.
• RX:
• Recognize and Correcting ppting factors
• Correct electrolytes.
• Lactulose
• Rifaximin.
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS)
•
•
•
•
•
•
HRS Type I: Rapid decline in renal function
HRS Type II: Chronic usually due to refractory ascites.
DDX: ATN, Pre-renal
DX:
Sr Creatinine > 1.5
No improvement after holding diuretics and volume
expansion with IV Albumin
• Absence of shock,
hypotension,proteinuria,nephrotoxics
• Low urine sodium.
HRS
•
•
•
•
•
•
Rx:
Avoiding and holding all nephrotoxics.
Hold diuretics
IV Albumin
Midodrine and octreotide
OLT is the definitive treatment
Fulminant Hepatic Failure
• Jaundice and hepatic encephalopathy in the
absence of chronic liver disease.
• Acetaminophen is the most common cause in US
( worsened by alcohol, malnutrition and fasting
state)
• Acute viral hepatitis is the most common cause
world wide.
• Other meds: INH, NSAIDS, herbal meds
• Other causes: AIH, BCS, AFLP, HELLP, Amanita
Phalloids
Fulminant Hepatic Failure
• Complications: Hypoglycemia, Cerebral
edema,coagulopathy,infection
• RX;
• Supportive care in ICU
