Liver failure occurs when the liver rapidly loses its ability to function, resulting in mental status changes and coagulation abnormalities. It can be caused by viral hepatitis, drug toxicity, toxins, or other metabolic issues. Acute liver failure presents as a sudden onset of severe liver injury over days or weeks in someone without pre-existing liver disease. Treatment involves identifying and treating the underlying cause, medications to reduce intracranial pressure and manage complications, and liver transplantation may be required in severe cases.
Acute kidney injury is common among hospitalized patients. It affects some 3–7% of patients admitted to the hospital and approximately 25–30% of patients in the intensive care unit.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) means your kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood the way they should. The disease is called “chronic” because the damage to your kidneys happens slowly over a long period of time.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) means your kidneys are damaged and can't filter blood the way they should. The disease is called “chronic” because the damage to your kidneys happens slowly over a long period of time.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) consists of a spectrum of different pathophysiologic processes associated with abnormal kidney function, and a progressive decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
Endocarditis is inflammation of your heart's inner lining, called the endocardium. It's usually caused by bacteria. When the inflammation is caused by infection, the condition is called infective endocarditis. Endocarditis is uncommon in people with healthy hearts.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs when a blood clot gets lodged in an artery in the lung, blocking blood flow to part of the lung.
Blood clots most often start in the legs and travel up through the right side of the heart and into the lungs. This is called DVT.
However, PE sometimes can occur without any evidence of DVT.
CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE (CRF) or CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE (CKD)
Chronic or irreversible renal failure is a progressive reduction of functioning of renal tissue such that the remaining kidney mass can no longer maintain the body’s internal environment.
Gallstones are hardened deposits of bile that can form in your gallbladder. Bile is a digestive fluid produced in your liver and stored in your gallbladder. When you eat, your gallbladder contracts and empties bile into your small intestine (duodenum)
A chronic, progressive disease characterized by widespread fibrosis(scarring) and nodule formation.
The development of cirrhosis is an insidious, prolonged course, usually after decades of chronic liver disease.

Drug-induced liver disease (DILD) is a potentially fatal, often debilitating outcome of drug treatment. The range of drugs associated with adverse reactions involving the liver is extensive, but in clinical practice is dominated by alcohol, antibiotics, antiseizure medications and acetaminophen. Complementary and herbal medicines also contribute disproportionately to this disease burden.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. LIVER FAILURE
Liver failure is an uncommon condition
in which rapid deterioration of liver
function results in coagulopathy and
a l t e r a t i o n i n t h e m e n t a l
status( encephalopathy ).
Liver failure indicates that liver has
sustained injury.
3. TYPES OF LIVER FAILURE
FULMINANT
HEPATIC
FAILURE
• Encephalopathy
starts within 8
weeks
Non fulminant
hepatic failure
• Encephalopathy
starts between 8
to 26 weeks
4. ACUTE LIVER FAILURE
Acute liver failure (ALF)
is
a rare condition
characterised by the abrupt
onset of severe liver injury.
5. ALF
•
Acute liver failure is loss of liver function
that occurs rapidly — in days or weeks —
usually in a person who has no pre-
existing liver disease .
•
It's a medical emergency that requires
hospitalization .
6. INCIDENCE
•
In developed country incidence is 10
cases per million people per year.
• It accounts for 6% of all deaths due to
liver disease.
•
It is more common in women than in men,
and more common in white people than in
other races.
8. VIRAL HEPATITIS
Virus hepatitis may lead to hepatic failure.
Hepatitis A and B Accounts for most of the
cases.
Atypical causes of viral hepatitis and
fulminant hepatic failure include the following:
Cytomegalovirus, Herpes simplex virus,
paramyxovirus, Epstein-Barr virus
9. DRUG INDUCED HEPATOTOXICITY
• Acetaminophen is the main drug for these type
of hepatotoxicity.
• Acetaminophen (also known as paracetamol )
may lead to liver failure as a result of intentional
or accidental overdose.
• Some kind of antibiotics, antidepressants,
anaesthetic agents, Salicylates are also
associated with hepatotoxicity.
22. MANAGEMENT OFALF
Treatment of acute liver failure consists
of Drugs and liver transplantation.
Pharmacological management
includes certain antidotes to reverse
the effects of ALF and various
medications to reduce ICP.
Antidotes neutralise toxic agents or
counteract any form of poisoning.
32. LIVER TRANSPLANTATION
When acute
liver failure
can't be
reversed, the
only treatment
may be a liver
transplant.
During a liver
transplant, a
surgeon
removes
patient’s
damaged liver
and replaces it
with a healthy
liver .
Liver
transplantation
is indicated for
many patients
with ALF.
34. OTHER INTERVENTIONS
For
coagulopathy/
GIT
bleeding
vitamin
K
can
be given to treat abnormal PT.
Hypotension should be treated with fluids.
Pulmonary
complications
mechanical
ventilation may be required.
Head
of
the
patient
should
be
elevated
to
30
degree .
Neurological
status
should
be
monitored
regularly.
35. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
• Increased risk of dehydration, electrolytes and
metabolic disturbances related to liver damage.
• Increased risk of secondary infections due to
impaired immune state, related to liver
dysfunction.
• Increased risk of haematological complications
related to liver dysfunction.
36. cont
•
Changes in neurological state (Encephalopathy)
due to liver insufficiency.
• Anxiety related to the symptoms of disease and
fear of the unknown.
37. NURSING INTERVENTIONS
•
Assess, report and record signs and symptoms
and reactions to the treatment.
• Monitor fluids input and output closely, observe
signs of dehydration, secondary infections,
neurological disturbances, Edema and jaundice.
• Provide adequate diet with carbohydrates and
vitamins.
38. Cont.
• Administer antibiotics, antiemetic, vitamins and other
medications as prescribed, monitor for side effects.
• Monitor for signs of possible bleeding.
• Provide prescribed diet, rest and comfort measures.
• Provide emotional support to client and his family,
explain all procedure to decrease anxiety and to obtain
cooperation.
