title: [Hemodynamic status in liver cirrhosis with portal hypertension: a retrospective study on 49 patients].
abstract: The Authors report on the data obtained and their evaluation by means of analysis of seven variables and four indices, in 49 cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension and in 10 control patients. Haemodynamic analysis offers the possibility of identifying the dynamic transition stages of a response to stress showing varying degrees of compensation and establishing categories of patients on the basis of cardiovascular and metabolic parameters in relation to liver damage. The Authors, according to Siegel studies, retain that this is a valid method which enables us to obtain useful information on the haemodynamic status of the cirrhotic patient with portal hypertension.
