Development of a Direct Non-Puncture Device for Measuring Portal Venous Pressure during Liver Transplantation—A Swine Model [PDF]

Biosensors, 2023
Portal hypertension-related complications pose a significant risk for liver failure post-transplantation. Thus, accurate monitoring of intraoperative portal venous pressure (PVP) is crucial.

Feasibility and safety of ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic measurement of portal venous pressure. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Background and objectiveThe measurement of portal venous pressure (PVP) has been extensively studied, primarily through indirect methods. However, the potential of ultrasound-guided percutaneous transhepatic PVP measurement as a direct method has been ...

Stratified analysis of the correlation between wedged hepatic venous pressure and portal venous pressure in patients with portal hypertension [PDF]

Scientific Reports
To evaluate the differences in the agreement between wedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP) and portal venous pressure (PVP) at different hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) levels to identify specific HVPG thresholds where WHVP can reliably estimate ...

Hepatic venous pressure gradient: Inaccurately estimates portal venous pressure gradient in alcoholic cirrhosis and portal hypertension. [PDF]

World J Gastrointest Surg, 2023
BACKGROUND Portal hypertension (PHT) in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis causes a range of clinical symptoms, including gastroesophageal varices and ascites. The hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG), which is easier to measure, has replaced the portal venous pressure gradient (PPG) as the gold standard for diagnosing PHT in clinical ...

Portal Venous Pressure Variation during Hepatectomy: A Prospective Study

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 2019
Introduction: Excessive portal venous pressure in the liver remnant is an independent factor in the occurrence of posthepatectomy liver failure and small-for-size syndrome. The baseline portal pressure prior to hepatectomy was not considered previously.

Portal Venous–Esophageal Luminal Pressure Gradient in Cirrhosis [PDF]

Hepatology, 1986
The portal venous–esophageal luminal pressure gradient may be more important than the absolute portal venous pressure in explaining hemorrhages caused by esophageal varices. A continuous recording of portal venous pressure and the esophageal luminal pressure enabled the authors to study the gradient between these pressures in ...

Short–Term Effects of Propranolol on Portal Venous Pressure [PDF]

Hepatology, 1986
The present study was designed to investigate the effect of propranolol on portal pressure of patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and portal hypertension and to correlate these effects with clinical and laboratory parameters. The mean baseline hepatic venous pressure gradient in the 50 patients studied was of 18.2 ± 4.1 mm Hg ...

Effect of peritoneo-venous shunt on portal pressure. [PDF]

Gut, 1989
The cause of variceal bleed after a peritoneo-venous shunt is not known. Portal haemodynamic consequences of a peritoneo-venous shunt are poorly understood. The most critical period after a peritoneo-venous shunt is the early postoperative period when rapid mobilisation of peritoneal fluid occurs.

Portal venous pressure and portal venous pressure gradient are similar in patients with refractory ascites and recurrent variceal bleeding

Gastroenterology, 1998
levels were measured 4 times during the first week (24,48,72,120,168 hours) and twice a week in the remaining 3 weeks (National Genetics Institute, Culver City, CA). Clearance of HCV-RNA was considered as primary virological response. Baseline HCV-RNA levels ranged from 100 to 35.000.000 eq/ml (mean 4.513.689 eq/ml). Genotypes: la 1 (5.8%), lb 13 (76.5%
