*This is the code to use for CHRONIC liver failure, '''with or without hepatic encephalopathy''', that is NOT due to ethanol or another drug/toxin, and is ALSO NOT fulminant, acute or subacute.
*Remember that liver failure is a distinct manifestation of advanced liver disease that can be caused by many different types of liver disease.  In liver failure, there is evidence of one or both of:
**synthetic dysfunction indicated by coagulopathy (with elevated PT, INR), very low albumin and other plasma proteins
**hepatic encephalopathy
*Liver cirrhosis is ''NOT'' the same thing as liver failure.  They can occur alone, or together.

    • synthetic dysfunction indicated by coagulopathy (with elevated PT, INR), very low albumin and other plasma proteins
    • hepatic encephalopathy
  • Liver cirrhosis is NOT the same thing as liver failure. They can occur alone, or together.
