Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Quality of Life in patients with HCV related liver cirrhosis before and after Direct Acting Antiviral Drugs
evaluate the effects of DAAs on HRQL in patients with liver cirrhosis secondary to chronic HCV infection
one year
Interventions
The Short Form (SF)-36 Health Survey was used to measure HRQL. The SF-36 generates a profile of HRQL outcomes by measuring health across eight different dimensions: physical functioning, role limitation because of physical health, social functioning, vitality, bodily pain, mental health, role limitation because of emotional problems and general health. Responses to each question within a dimension are combined to generate a score from 0to100; where100 indicates "good health"
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with hepatitis C related liver cirrhosis being treatedusing the Egyptian National Guidelines will be enrolled. According to the most updated treatment protocol, patients undergo therapy for a relatively short period (3 to6 months).
You may qualify if:
- Patients with hepatitis C related liver cirrhosis (diagnosed clinically laboratory and by imaging).
- Age 18 years or older
- Eligible for starting DAAs therapy according to Egyptian National Guidelines will be enrolled.
- Follow up of those patients during and after DAAs therapy (clinically ,laboratory,imaging and with a questionnaire ) to determine HRQL.
You may not qualify if:
- Any patient with liver cirrhosis secondary to causes other than chronic HCV infection e. g. auto immune liver disease, PBC
- Coinfection with other viruses as HBV, HIV.
- Had significant psychiatric illnesses (diagnosed by psychiatrist)
