        | Core Tip | 
        Diastolic dysfunction particularly when defined using American Society of Echocardiography criteria consistently correlate with post-transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) heart failure. N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide ≥ 125 pg/mL, clinical history and examination, 12-lead electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography can improve pre-TIPS risk stratification, optimise patient selection, and enable early cardiac optimisation. Employing additional tools, such as the heart failure with preserved ejection fraction score and left-atrial strain imaging can further characterise cardiac dysfunction but requires further validation. Future research should clarify the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and precision medicine in this cohort. |
