WEBINAR:
Feb 16, 2023

Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a life-threatening medical condition that consists of rapid deterioration in kidney function in individuals with cirrhosis of the liver or sudden liver failure. HRS may be fatal unless a liver transplant is performed, although various treatments, such as dialysis, can prevent advancement of the condition. The only certain way to prevent HRS is to keep your liver healthy.
To reduce your risk of developing cirrhosis, avoid drinking excessive amounts of alcohol, and avoid contracting Hepatitis.


Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (PFIC)
WEBINAR:
March 2, 2023
5:30pm to 6:30pm PDT
February is Rare Disease Month (#RareAware). We are dedicating this webinar to Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis, or PFIC, which represents a group of rare genetic disorders that cause a progressive liver disease and can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and end-stage liver disease. One of the symptoms of PFIC is the insatiable itching of the skin. The pruritus, or itching, may become so sever that causes skin mutilation, loss of sleep, irritability, and poor attention and impaired performance. PFIC1, PFIC2 and PFIC3 are most common variations of PFIC. In addition, other rare forms of PFIC exist with varying phenotypes, but all present with cholestasis.
In this webinar our expert presenters will provide updated and accurate information about PFIC, symptoms, available treatments, and living with PFIC.
