Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary objective: 1. Change in liver function tests over 3 months 2. Change in grades of varices & ascites over 3 months 2. Change in CTP score, HVOTO-AIIMS score, Rotterdam BCS index & BCS-TIPS PI over 3 months. 3. Complications related to intervention & conservative therapy over 3 months of therapy. 4. Change in liver stiffness measurement (LSM) over 3 months.Timepoint: 3 months
