Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy(CCM)is a chronic cardi ac insufficiency caused by systemic hemodynamic changes in patients with end-stage liver disease in the absence of other previous heart disease.Previous studies have shown that volume overload and hyperdynamic circulation can lead to structural and functional changes in the heart of cirrhotic patients.Therefore,early assessmeent of cardiac lesions by echocardiography and timely intervention are central to improving the prognosis of patients with cirrhosis.In this article will,we review the progress of various echocardio graphic techniques in recent years to assess the cardiac structure,function and hemodynamics of cirrhotic patients,and suggesting that com-bining various echocardiographic techniques can complement each other to provide a more comprehensive quantitative analysis.
