Prevalence of cognitive impairment in liver transplant recipients

Liver transplant (LT) recipients have a high burden of cognitive impairment risk factors identified in other populations, yet little work has explored cognition in the United States LT population.

Description
Summary:Liver transplant (LT) recipients have a high burden of cognitive impairment risk factors identified in other populations, yet little work has explored cognition in the United States LT population. We characterized prevalence of cognitive impairment (CI) in LT recipients pre‐LT and ≥3 months post‐LT. Adult LT recipients with cirrhosis but without active pre‐LT hepatic encephalopathy (HE) were screened for CI using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for CI (MoCA
