- Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of cirrhosis cardiomyopathy in patients with liver cirrhosis. Study design: A cross-sectional research (descriptive). Place and Duration: In the Medicine Department, Unit I of Allied Hospital, Faisalabad in collaboration with Cardiology Department for one year duration from June 2017 to June 2018. Methods: 300 total patients were included in this analysis. The presence of diastolic dysfunction in patients with liver cirrhosis (eg, long-term ratio with operational definition E / A or delay time increase) was ruled out by a consultant cardiology echocardiography diagnosed as cirrhosis cardiomyopathy. Results: Of the 37 patients (12.3%) who were between 20 and 30 years of age, 148 (49.4%) were between 41 and 50 years. The mean age was 46.7 ± 8.9 years. 127 (42.3%) of the patients were female, while the gender distribution was 173 (57.7%). Child-Pugh classification was as follows: 38 patients (12.7%) belonged to Child-Pugh A, 118 patients (39.3%) to Child-Pugh B, and 144 patients (48.0%) belonged to Child-Pugh C. cirrhotic cardiomyopathy Ser 147 (49.0%). Stratification The child was made for the stage of the disease according to the Pugh class. Conclusion: This analysis shows that cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is a common event. While there is a direct association between the severity of liver disease and cirrhotic cardiomyopathy, electrophysiological, biochemical and echocardiographic changes are the basis of the situation. Key Words: cirrhotic cardiomyopathy, liver cirrhosis, echocardiography.
