The aim of the study was to evaluate the survival over a one-year period, to register the occurrence of acute decompensation (AD) and to determine the most frequent causes of death. Material and methods: Out of 71 patients enrolled in the study, 63 completed the prospective one-year follow-up. During the follow-up, we evaluated the occurrence of AD, the causes of death, and we registered three-month, six-month and one-year survival regarding the AD status at presentation. Results: Of the 63 patients, 24 (38.09%) died before the end of the study (14 patients before the end of three months, 6 before the end of six months and 4 patients before the end of one year). The overall survival was 38.09% and the mean survival time was 108 ± 98.53 days. The most prevalent cause of death was bleeding from esophageal varices (5 patients, 20.83%). AD patients had a significantly shorter survival than patients without AD (97±90.54 vs. 229±138.59) and 78.57% of them died during the follow-up. The estimated six-month and one-year median survival time were 272.8 [95% CI (238.4-307.2)] and 267.1 [95% CI (232.9-301.2)] days, respectively. The six-month and one-year survival were significantly shorter in AD patients (p<0.0001). Conclusion: The etiology, stage of liver disease and the presence of AD are important factors that influence on the survival in cirrhotic patients. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/28922 | DOI: | 10.2478/prilozi-2023-0045 |
