Core Tip |
Alcohol related end stage liver disease (ESLD) carries a poor prognosis and is associated with significant loss of quality of life and symptom burden. We found that inpatient palliative care is sparingly used for patients with decompensated alcohol related liver disease, however it has increased over the past decade. Palliative care referral is associated with decreased hospitalization cost and length of stay in acute-on-chronic liver failure Positive alcohol-associated ESLD patients, as well as decreased rehospitalization rates in all alcohol associated ESLD patients. |
