Samantha Harasemchuk was 27 when she was diagnosed with cirrhosis, the beginning of liver failure linked to heavy alcohol consumption. Now, a new study suggests the problem is rising sharply among teens and young adults — and women are most at risk.
In this World Shared Practice Forum podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Burns converses with experts Drs. Akash Deep, James Squires, and Barbara Wildhaber about pediatric acute liver failure and the intricacies of deciding when a child is unsuitable for liver transplantation. Discussing insights from their 2024 Lancet Child Health and Adolescent Health paper, they emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in evaluating clinical, biochemical, psychosocial, and ethical factors. The conversation highlights challenges with exclusion criteria, risks associated with severe multi-organ failure, and the necessity of balancing technical feasibility with overall patient prognosis, while also addressing the ethical implications of organ allocation. LEARNING OBJECTIVES - Identify key clinical and biochemical factors in evaluating pediatric liver transplant suitability - Discuss the ethical and logistical considerations impacting transplant decisions in critically ill children with liver failure - Summarize multidisciplinary approaches for determining when a child may be unsuitable for a liver transplant AUTHORS Akash Deep, MD, FRCPCH Director - Paediatric Intensive Care Unit and Staff Governor King's College Hospital, London Professor in Paediatric Critical Care King's College London James Squires, MD, MS Associate Professor, Pediatrician UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Barbara Wildhaber, MD Professor University Hospitals of Geneva Chief Physician Child and Adolescent Surgery Swiss Pediatric Liver Center Jeffery Burns, MD, MPH Emeritus Chief Division of Critical Care Medicine Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine Boston Children's Hospital Professor of Anesthesia Harvard Medical School DATE Initial publication date: February 25, 2025.

In this episode, Dennis and Doug discuss acute liver injury, its causes, recognition, and management. They explore the liver's vital functions, the implications of liver injury in shock situations, and the importance of early recognition and treatment. The conversation also touches on the role of supplements and heat injury in exacerbating liver issues, emphasizing the liver's resilience and the need for vigilant care in critical situations.TakeawaysThe liver plays a crucial role in toxin clearance and blood metabolism.Acute liver injury can result from hypoxia, heat stroke, and toxins like acetaminophen.Recognizing signs of liver injury early can significantly impact patient outcomes.Supportive care for liver injury includes maintaining glucose levels and managing coagulopathy.The timeline for liver injury can vary, often showing signs later than other organ failures.Preventing acute liver injury involves early recognition and treatment of shock.Supplements can increase the risk of liver injury, especially in heat-related cases.The liver's resilience allows it to withstand significant damage before showing dysfunction.Monitoring lactate and glucose levels can help in diagnosing liver injury.Effective resuscitation is key to preventing progression to severe liver injury.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Acute Liver Injury02:58 Understanding Liver Functions and Injury06:04 Recognizing Acute Liver Injury08:57 Supportive Care for Liver Injury11:47 Challenges in Managing Acute Liver Injury15:04 The Timeline of Liver Injury17:47 Preventing Acute Liver Injury21:13 The Role of Supplements and Heat Injury24:07 Conclusion and Key TakeawaysThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.deltadevteam.com For more content go to www.prolongedfieldcare.orgConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

Contributor: Travis Barlock MD Educational Pearls: How do you differentiate between compensated and decompensated cirrhosis? Use the acronym VIBE to look for signs of being decompensated. V-Volume Cirrhosis can cause volume overload through a variety of mechanisms such as by increasing pressure in the portal vein system and the decreased production of albumin. Look for pulmonary edema (dyspnea, orthopnea, wheezing/crackles, coughing up frothy pink sputum, etc.) or a tense abdomen. I-Infection The ascitic fluid can become infected with bacteria, a complication called Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis (SBP). Look for abdominal pain, fever, hypotension, and tachycardia. Diagnosis is made with ascitic fluid cell analyses (polymorphonuclear neutrophils >250/mm3) B-Bleeding Another consequence of increased portal pressure is that blood backs up into smaller blood vessels, including those in the esophagus. Over time, this increased pressure can result in the development of dilated, fragile veins called esophageal varices, which are prone to bleeding. Look for hematemesis, melena, lightheadedness, and pale skin. E-Encephalopathy A failing liver also does not clear toxins which can affect the brain. Look for asterixis (flapping motion of the hands when you tell the patient to hold their hands up like they are going to stop a bus) Other complications to look out for.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue on Pig Liver Experiment
Most of us have pre-conceived notions of what we feel alcohol dependence looks like, including Karla Adkins. At only age 36 she found herself in the hospital dying of liver failure, from what she thought was a socially accepted coping mechanism. Her journey to rock bottom inspired our conversation about what truly drives so many to drink, and how we can change conversations around alcohol.
It took several years before doctors diagnosed her with multiple sclerosis and then the pharmaceutical drug she was prescribed caused her liver to fail four years later. But Tamara Netzel of Virginia underwent a stem cell transplant in Mexico and started using cannabis to help her with her health issues. She is now a strong proponent and spokesperson for cannabis in her state.

Our friend and fellow This Naked Mind coach, Karla Adkins dropped by the pod to tell us her incredible story of how drinking to cope with stress and anxiety wound her up in the hospital with a liver failure diagnosis. Karla talks about all the “jobs” that she gave alcohol and how in order to break free, she had to untangle her beliefs about whether alcohol was helping her or hurting her. Karla tells us about what living with alcohol-related liver disease looked like and how her one doctor played a pivotal role in helping her get curious about living life without it. Karla's book, “And She Came Tumbling Down” is available on amazon here. You can also learn more about Karla at karlaadkins.com. Thank you for listening! xx Connect with Meade and Christy HERE.
