Consultant Critical Care Medicine, Zydus Hospital, Gujarat
Intensive care management in Acute Liver Failure (ALF) is critical due to its rapid progression and high mortality risk. It involves close monitoring and support of multiple organ systems, particularly neurological function to prevent or manage cerebral edema. Key components include maintaining hemodynamic stability, managing coagulopathy, preventing infections, and ensuring adequate nutrition. Early identification of candidates for liver transplantation is vital, as it remains the definitive treatment in many cases. A multidisciplinary approach, including hepatology, critical care, and transplant teams, is essential for optimal outcomes.
