Overview

History should focus on the history of alcohol use by the patient, and the history of symptoms that may have developed.

History

  • Patient should have a significant history of alcohol use.[1]
  • CAGE questionnaire should be implemented.[1]
  • AUDIT-C questions should be asked.[2]
  • Guidelines for identifying persons at risk for developing alcoholic liver disease:[3][4]
    • Low risk for developing alcohol use disorder:
      • Female: no more than 3 drinks on any single day and no more than 7 drinks per week.
      • Male: no more than 4 drinks on any single day and no more than fourteen drinks per week.
    • Moderate alcohol consumption:
      • Female: up to 1 drink per day.
      • Male: up to 2 drinks per day.
    • Binge drinking:
    • Heavy alcohol use:
      • Binge drinking on 5 or more days in the past month.

Symptoms

The symptoms of alcoholic liver disease are as follows:[5][6][7][8][9]

Alcoholic steatosis Alcoholic hepatitis Compensated cirrhosis Decompensated cirrhosis
Common symptoms Less common symptoms Common symptoms Less common symptoms Common symptoms Less common symptoms
Asymptomatic Yellow discoloration of skin Abdominal distention Asymptomatic Muscle cramps Yellow discoloration of skin Sleep disturbances / Confusion
Loss of appetite Proximal muscle weakness Loss of appetite Irregular menstruation Itchy skin Easy bruisability
Fever Confusion (hepatic encephalopathy) Loss of weight Impotence / infertility / loss of sexual drive Blood in vomitus / stool
Abdominal pain Weakness / fatigue Abdominal distention / Weight gain
Leg swelling
