Abstract

into patients who recovered or died depending on ward based care versus ITU. Conclusion COVID pneumonitis influenced the outcome of patients admitted with hepatic decompensation resulting in increased mortality. Alcohol was the commonest cause of underlying liver disease in both Pre-COVID and COVID period. Age, nature of hepatic decompensation (Gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis) CLIF-C score for patients referred to ITU and average hospital stay was not much different in both the groups. The median MELD and ACLF grade were higher in patients who died compared to those who recovered.
