Key Words Paracetamol overdose; Acute hepatic failure; Orthotopic liver transplant; Psychiatric contraindications; Mortality
Core Tip This is the first United Kingdom study to report the frequency of death in patients presenting with paracetamol overdose-related acute hepatic failure, who are declined urgent liver transplant because of psychiatric contraindications, despite their being otherwise medically suitable for transplant. We found that this occurs in almost 9% of patients assessed. Our results highlight the impact of psychiatric decision-making in this context, as well as the potential for inter-unit variability of patient outcomes that arises from the lack of standardised guidelines in this area.
