Preventive care
Preventive care can play an important role in patients with chronic liver diseases. Based on the existing data, the preventive strategies of alcohol avoidance, hepatitis vaccination, avoidance of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, iron supplementation when appropriate, and a low-fat diet are prudent in patients with chronic liver disease. Once cirrhosis develops, screening for hepatocellular cancer with alpha-fetoprotein testing and ultrasound, and screening for varices by endoscopy are justified. Various preventive health checks that are done at the institutes are:
- Preventive Liver Health Checks
- Hepatitis B screening
- Conducting monthly rural / suburban camps
- Surveillance for HCC in patients with chronic hepatitis and established cirrhosis through 6 monthly USG and AFP
- Detailed imaging of the pancreas for workup of unexplained weight loss or worsening of Diabetes status
