Proton Pump Inhibitors in Cirrhotic Patients

Inappropriate Use of Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Apr 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inappropriate use, in patients with cirrhosis, presents a significant clinical challenge. This study evaluates overprescription and misuse of PPIs in cirrhotic patients. The patterns of use of PPIs will be classified into two groups based on adherence to the proven indications: Group A: Inappropriate use of PPI, Group B: Appropriate use of PPI. We will estimate the prevalence of PPI misuse in cirrhotics and correlate it with different factors.
