Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Frequency of MHE in Cirrhotic patients

    Continuous variables with normal and non-normal distributions would be reported as mean (SD) and median \[inter-quartile range (IQR)\], respectively. Prevalence of MHE in cirrhotic patients with 95% confidence Interval (CI) will be calculated. Continuous variables between group will compared by using Independent sample t test, and categorical variables will compare by using the chi-square test.

    18 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • The predisposing factors that might be associated with MHE in all enrolled patients with cirrhosis

    18 months

  • Quality of Life (QoL) of patients at baselines

    18 months

  • Management of MHE currently in practice

    18 months
