title: [Current status and perspectives of artificial liver for treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure].
abstract: This article briefly introduces the mechanisms and characteristics of several new artificial liver therapies, the advantages and disadvantages of different sites for placement of the drainage tube, and commonly used anticoagulation methods, as well as the prevention and treatment of common complications of the artificial liver support system. The future direction of development of artificial liver includes new regimens for "individualized treatment" based on patients' conditions, combination of non-biological artificial liver and biological active ingredients, and development of efficient and perfected hybrid bioartificial liver, which can further improve the therapeutic outcome of liver failure.
