When the diseased liver is unable to filter out neurotoxins like ammonia, we can see a spectrum of the neuropsychiatric symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy. For the final installment in our liver failure series, host Sarah Lorenzini highlights a complicated case of hepatic encephalopathy where critical thinking and interdisciplinary teamwork were key to preventing further complications.

She examines the common signs and symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy, factors that trigger or exacerbate the condition, and challenges nurses face in the diagnostic process. This episode also dives into treatment strategies and how to differentiate between hepatic encephalopathy and alcohol withdrawal.

Tune in to learn how cirrhosis can lead to hepatic encephalopathy, the effect of neurotoxins in the brain, and how you, as a nurse, can manage patient care!

Assessment of Sarah’s rapid response consult patient
The team’s interventions and patient outcome
Pathophysiology of hepatic encephalopathy
Signs and symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy
