| Patients with chronic liver disease and signs of decompensation should be assessed for transplantation before they become critically ill. |
|
| We excluded patients with hepatitis B, HIV infection, or hepatic decompensation. |
|
| At the time of decompensation, 23 patients were taking antipsychotics while 16 were drug free. |
|
| When liver decompensation occurs and if the patient is a suitable candidate, liver transplantation is the only treatment that extends life. |
|
| It is hoped that this strategy will prevent the problems associated with long-term volume overload and cardiac decompensation. |
|
| Although this may be secondary to sudden decompensation of chronic heart failure, myocardial ischemia is also common. |
|
| The major contributing factor for heart failure decompensation was medication lapses. |
|
| The pilot was diagnosed with several cardiovascular risk factors, making an acute cardiovascular decompensation a possibility. |
|
| This should be considered particularly in patients with any degree of cardiac decompensation or those with a prior history, thereof. |
|
| Patients with advanced cirrhosis of the liver who might be at risk for decompensation and pregnant women should not receive anti-viral treatment. |
|
| However, patients with advanced liver disease or cirrhosis may be at higher risk for hepatic decompensation. |
|
| Ketorolac tromethamine should be used with caution in patients with cardiac decompensation, hypertension or other conditions which cause a predisposition to fluid retention. |
|
| Vaccination against hepatitis A and B should be considered for all patients, since patients with chronic hepatitis C are at higher risk of decompensation if they acquire other viral hepatitis infections. |
|
| Young children with open fontanels and mobile cranial suture lines are more tolerant of expansion of intracranial mass lesions, and decompensation may not occur until the mass lesion has become large. |
|
| In these patients, hepatitis reactivation at discontinuation of lamivudine or loss of efficacy during treatment may induce severe and even fatal decompensation. |
|
| Caution should be observed in patients with cardiac decompensation and hypotension or posterior diaphragmal infarction with a tendency towards development of heart block. |
|
| One patient developed photopsia and decompensation was observed in another patient. |
|
| In the patient population treated with INHIBACE for congestive heart failure, there were reports of bradycardia, AV block, extra systoles, cardiac failure and cardiac decompensation. |
|
| The ultimate evolution is arthrosic knee decompensation. |
|
| Eight months after onset of the patient's condition, marked hepatic decompensation occurred, culminating in esophageal variceal hemorrhage. |
|
|
|
| Hospitalization of an adolescent with an eating disorder is necessary in the presence of malnutrition, clinical evidence of medical or psychiatric decompensation or failure of out-patient treatment. |
|
| A varying percentage of our combat soldiers reach the limit of their endurance and must leave their foxholes, not for physical wounds but because of emotional decompensation. |
|
| Once it was determined that hyperthyroidism was the probable etiology of her cardiac decompensation, the next step was treatment of the underlying disease. |
|
| Activation of cMLCK and MLC-2v are known to increase sarcomere reorganization and cardiac contractility and prevent cardiac decompensation from heart failure. |
