Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

NorthUp, Pressure Down
Q: What is the role of non-invasive markers and spleen stiffness in guiding treatment decisions for gray-zone patients?
Spleen stiffness is increasingly seen as a helpful adjunct to liver stiffness measurements in the gray zone, aiding risk stratification and decision-making about beta blockers and other interventions, though thresholds and logistics vary and require careful interpretation.
NorthUp, Pressure Down
Q: For a portal vein thrombosis patient with an indication for anticoagulation, is there a platelet threshold that makes you hesitate?
Yes. While decisions depend on the clinical context, platelets below 20-25 thousand generally raise concern, particularly if another process lowers platelets; otherwise, starting DOACs can be considered with careful risk discussion and, if needed, a TIPS to restore flow.
HCC Unpacked: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Modern Therapy
Q: Thank you. Now we're going to switch gears to walk our listeners through how you actually approach HCC management. Dr. Tabrizian, when you first see a patient with HCC, what is your approach to staging and treatment allocations, and what are the key clinical factors that are your decision points in this?
Dr. Tabrizian explains that decisions are guided by the BCLC staging system while recognizing critiques and alternatives. Key decision factors include tumor biology and burden at diagnosis, patient response to therapy, underlying liver function to determine candidacy for resection or transplantation, and the importance of evaluating patients early and in a multidisciplinary tumor board to consider all potential strategies and balance curative options with realistic outcomes.
Wading Through the ACLF MILU with Christina Lindenmeyer
Q: How do you approach the systematic management of the various organ failures in ACLF patients?
Management strategies for ACLF patients draw heavily from general critical care, but it's essential to recognize the unique challenges faced by these patients.
Wading Through the ACLF MILU with Christina Lindenmeyer
Q: What specifically drew you to the field of liver critical care?
I found that I was actually at my happiest and least burnt out when I was in the medical ICU, enjoying the interaction with patients and the opportunity for innovation.
