研究概览
简要总结
This study will be used to train an algorithm using Methacetin breath test (MBT) measures and to select a cut-off to determine presence or absence of Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension (CSPH) as defined by Hepatic Venous Gradient Pressure (HVPG) ≥ 10mmHg,
详细描述
The portal pressure leaving the liver is measured by using a balloon catheter before and after a wedge. The difference of the pressure between the wedge and the free is the hepatic venous pressure gradient. Methacetin breath test is hypothesized to also identify CSPH and the agreement to the reference standard (HVPG) will be assessed in this study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Compensated cirrhotic patients
A methacetin breath test will be performed on patients who are undergoing the HVPG procedure due to their clinical indication of compensated cirrhosis.
干预措施: Methacetin Breath Test (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
CSPH (Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension)
时间窗: 1 hour
Clinically significant portal hypertension is defined as Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG)\>=10mmHg, whereby the portal pressure leaving the liver is measured by using a balloon catheter before and after a wedge. The difference of the pressure between the wedge and the free is the hepatic venous pressure gradient. Methacetin breath test is hypothesized to also identify CSPH and the agreement to the reference standard (HVPG) will be assessed in this study.
次要结局
- Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG)>=12; Severe Portal Hypertension (SPH)(1 hour)
