To Compare the Response Rate of Noradrenaline vs. Terlipressin in Hepatorenal Syndrome in Patients With Acute on Chronic Liver Failure

Summary

Continous infusion of nor adrenaline + albumin Continous infusion of terlipressin + albumin Response will assessed at every 48 hour (i) Complete response: Regression of acute kidney injury stage with reduction of S. Cr within 0.3 mg/dl of baseline (ii) Partial response: Regression of acute kidney injury stage with reduction of S. Cr to ≥0.3 mg/dl above baseline (iii) No response: No regression of acute kidney injury Treatment will be extended until reversal of HRS (decrease in creatinine below 1.5 mg/dL) or for a maximum of 7 days after rescue treatment will be followed. If intolerant to terlipressin, excluded from study and rescue treatment will be given in form of noradrenaline or octreotide and midodrine.
