Why Liver Care Clinic?
Liver diseases are mostly silent and asymptomatic. Sometimes, the signs and symptoms of liver conditions can be very subtle and screening programs help in early detection of disease and prompt treatment. Unhealthy lifestyles such as excessive alcohol consumption can cause cirrhosis, while chronic hepatitis virus infection or diabetes can cause liver fibrosis or scarring of the liver. To diagnose liver diseases early, in the inflammation and fibrosis stages, a robust liver screening package and a dedicated liver clinic are very critical. When people are treated successfully at these stages, the liver may have a chance to heal itself and recover.
Worldwide, liver cirrhosis is the 14th most common cause of death and is predicted to be the 12th leading cause of death by 2020. Hepatocellular carcinoma or liver cancer is the 2nd most common cause of death due to malignancy.
In India, liver disease is known to affect every 1 in 5 people. According to the World Health Organization, in India, liver disease is the 10th most common cause of death killing every 21 in 1 lakh patients. Every year around 10 lakh people are diagnosed with liver cirrhosis while killing 1.4 million with viral hepatitis.
According to a community-level study (2018 - 2019) in Pune including 7,624 people, 35.5% were reported to have liver fibrosis of which 14% had advanced-stage liver fibrosis, and 3% had irreversible liver damage.
