Second round of the @OHIOLIVER academic debates: @metrohealthCLE vs. @ClevelandClinic Preemptive TIPS vs. #carvedilol with EVL to obliteration @CLindenmeyerMD @MRegueiroMD

Astute observation by my clinical coordinator today. A lot more patients are symptomatic with carvedilol than with NSBBs we used in the past.
At what dose do you initiate #carvedilol for CSPH? #livertwitter #MedTwitter

@ILCAnews @acv69cardenas LSM>15 kPa+ plt <150k highly suggests CSPH. Start #carvedilol which reduces risk of death and decompensation. If doesn’t meet these criteria, doesn’t require EGD before initiation of #atezolizumab #bevacizumab for uHCC #ILCA22
