Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will present on Acute Liver Failure (ALF). We will discuss the pathophysiology, highlighting the rapid deterioration of liver function, typically in an individual without pre-existing liver disease, and its causes, including drug-induced liver injury, viral hepatitis, and toxins. The session will transition to a digital presentation focused on the diagnostic approach, including liver function tests, imaging, and criteria for diagnosis. Finally, we will review the management strategies for ALF, emphasizing the importance of supportive care, specific treatments for identifiable causes, and evaluation for liver transplantation.
