Explain the management of patients with the hepatic disorder :

1) explain/define the jaundice (Define jaundice.)

• => Jaundice is also called icterus.
• => Jaundice is not a disease but it is seen as a sign of disease after many diseases.
• => Jaundice is a condition in which the skin, mucous membrane, and sclera of the body become yellow in color due to an increase in the amount of bilirubin in the body. It is called jaundice.
• => Jaundice occurs when the amount of bilirubin in the body increases above 2.5 mg/dl. The condition of jaundice is seen.
• (Note:=normal bilirubin level is 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dl.)
• ( In jaundice := level of bilirubin is exced 2.5 mg/dl)
• { direct/unconjugated/fat soluable bilirubin level is 0.1 -0.3 mg/dl.}
• { indirect/conjugated / water soluable billirubin level is 0.2-0.8mg/dl.}
• => Bilirubin is a natural product that is released as a byproduct of the breakdown of red blood cells and is excreted out of the body by the liver.
• => The condition of jaundice arises when the amount of conjugated bilirubin is not excreted from the body by the liver using the biliary system and the bilirubin accumulates in the body, due to which the condition of jaundice arises.

2)explain the type of jaundice. (Describe the types of jaundice.)

There are four types of jaundice in total:=

types:=

• 1)hemolytic jaundice,
• 2)obstructive jaundice,
• 3)hepatocellular jaundice ( Hepatocellular jaundice)
• 4) hereditary jaundice

1)hemolytic jaundice,

• => HEMO MEANS:= “BLOOD,”
• => LYTIC MEANS:= “BREAKDOWN OF CELL”
• => “HEMO LYTIC MEANS := “BREAKDOWN OF RED BLOOD CELL”
• => Hemolytic jaundice is also called pre hepatic jaundice.
• => In this jaundice, the level of bilirubin is raised due to excessive breakdown of red blood cells.

=>some common causes of hemolytic jaundice are:

• Sickle cell anemia,
• Transfusion reaction,
• Malaria,
• Thalassemia,
• Autoimmune disorder.

2) Obstructive jaundice ( Obstructive jaundice) ,

• =>Obstructive jaundice is called extra hepatic type of jaundice.
• => Obstructive jaundice occurs when there is bile duct blockage and bilirubin is not excreted from the liver and remains in the liver.
• => Therefore it is called cholestatic jaundice because due to obstruction of bile duct, bilirubin cannot be excreted from the liver. No.
• => Obstructive jaundice causes extreme levels of itching in the body because salt builds up in the body.

Some of the common causes of obstructive jaundice :=

• Due to carcinoma in the gallbladder and bile duct,
• Gallstones in the biliary system stones) due to the presence of,
• Infection and inflammation.

3) Hepatocellular jaundice (Hepatocellular jaundice)

• => Hepatocellular jaundice is called the most common type of jaundice.
• => Hepatocellular jaundice occurs when the liver cells are damaged for any reason, due to which the liver is unable to excrete bilirubin from the body and due to this, bilirubin increases in the blood.

Hepatocellular jaundice is mainly

• Liver failure,
• Liver disease,
• Liver cancer,
• Hepatitis,
• Viruses such as,
• Yellow fever,
• Epstein Barr virus, caused by certain types of drugs.

4)Hereditary jaundice (Hereditary jaundice)

• => Hereditary jaundice is mainly seen in any person from his family in a hereditary way.
• => Hereditary jaundice is mainly due to impairment in bilirubin metabolism from birth itself, which causes excessive accumulation of bilirubin in the body.
• => It mainly occurs when excessive production of bilirubin or It occurs due to the body not being able to excrete it.

1) Dubin/Johnson syndrome

• => This is an inherited disorder.
• => In this jaundice, the level of conjugated bilirubin increases in the liver.

2)Gilbert’s syndrome

• => Gilbert’s syndrome is an inherited condition that is mainly caused by benign conditions in which the level of bilirubin increases to a mild level.

3) Rotor’s syndrome

• => This is an inherited disease in which intermittent jaundice is seen.

3)explain the causes/Etiology of jaundice. Explain the causes of jaundice

\/
=> The level of this ammonia increases in the blood.
 |
\/
=> Due to the increase in the level of ammonia in the blood, ammonia enters the blood stream.
 |
\/
=> Due to this, the permeability of the blood increases and it crosses the blood brain barrier.

\/
=> Therefore, ammonia reaches the brain and damages the brain and alters the function of the brain.

\/
It causes
=> hepatic encephalopathy

• => In this surgery, the duodenum (duodenam:=the initial part of the small intestine), the head of the pancreas, and the gallbladder are removed.
• => Then the remaining pancreas, bile duct, and stomach are joined to the intestine.

2) Chemotherapy

• => Chemotherapy uses medicine to destroy abnormal cells.
