Overview

There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for hepatopulmonary syndrome. Nevertheless, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis in every patient with known liver disease or sign and symptoms of liver disease that present with hypoxemia, and dyspnea. Nevertheless, serial pulse oximetry as a simple, low cost and widely available technique, is recommended in cirrhotic patients. It could detect and also determine the severity of hypoxemia in patients with hepatopulmonary syndrome. Hence, pulse oximetry screening might improve management of HPS in cirrhotic patients.

Screening

  • There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for hepatopulmonary syndrome. Nevertheless, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis in every patient with known liver disease or sign and symptoms of liver disease that present with hypoxemia, and dyspnea.[1][2][3][4][5]
  • Nevertheless, serial pulse oximetry as a simple, low cost and widely available technique, is recommended in cirrhotic patients. It could detect and also determine the severity of hypoxemia in patients with hepatopulmonary syndrome. Hence, pulse oximetry screening might improve management of HPS in cirrhotic patients.[6]
