Study Summary
Pilot study examining changes in liver stiffness measured by ultrasound before and after TIPS creation
Primary Outcome
The primary study endpoint will be decrease in liver stiffness following TIPS creation as measured by ARFI using mean propagation velocity values in meters per second. Mean normal values and mean values indicating severe fibrosis range about 0.8-1.7 m/s and about 1-3.4 m/s respectively. We hypothesize TIPS creation will reduce the liver stiffness by \> 50%. Change in liver stiffness will be correlated to change in PSG.
