Abstract

Abstract

Hepatic encephalopathy is the most common complication of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension, and a confirmed diagnosis requires the clarification of predisposing factors and disease stage based on neuropsychological tests or clinical symptoms and signs. The treatment of hepatic encephalopathy emphasizes the elimination of predisposing factors, ammonia-lowering treatment, and reasonable and appropriate nutrition support, and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy has certain advantages and characteristics in treatment. This article discusses the advances in the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis and treatment of hepatic encephalopathy, so as to guide clinical practice and select reasonable treatment regimens.
