Clinical Trial: Early Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunts Improve Survival in Patients With Cirrhosis and Recurrent Ascites
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Refractory Ascites
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Official Title: Early TIPS Improve Survival in Patients With Cirrhosis and Recurrent Ascites: a Multicenter Observational Study
Brief Summary:
Currently, there is limited evidence regarding the survival benefit of early transjugular intrahepatic portal shunt (TIPS) placement in patients with cirrhosis and recurrent ascites.This observational study aimed to assess whether early TIPS improves the survival of patients with advanced cirrhosis and recurrent ascites.We will compare large volume paracenteses plus albumin (LVP+A? to see if TIPS improves the survival of patients with advanced cirrhosis and recurrent ascites.
