Prognostic value of acute hemodynamic response to i.v. propranolol in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension
Journal of Hepatology, 07/08/09
Mura VL et al. - The evaluation of acute HVPG response to i.v. propranolol before initiating secondary prophylaxis for variceal bleeding is a useful tool in predicting the efficacy of non-selective beta-blockers. If adequately validated, this might be a more cost-effective strategy than the chronic evaluation of HVPG response and might be useful to guide therapeutic decisions in these patients.
