ABSTRACT

Liver failure is a serious liver damage caused by a variety of factors, and infection is one of the most common complications in the development and progression of liver failure. Liver failure patients with infection have a significant increase in mortality, which is a difficult clinical event for physicians. At present, there are no sufficient clinical data on the diagnosis and treatment of liver failure with infection, and there is also a lack of guidelines for clinical diagnosis and treatment in China and foreign countries. This article summarizes the difficulties and hotspots in the prevalence, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of liver failure with infection, in order to provide guidance for clinical diagnosis and treatment and directions for further clinical research.
