In this episode, the faculty review the evidence base for ammonia measurement in patients with cirrhosis, exploring whether hyperammonaemia is indicative of a poor prognosis and if erroneous measurements correlate with the efficacy of ammonia-lowering therapies. The debate also extends to the use of ammonia as a potential endpoint in randomised controlled trials for hepatic encephalopathy drugs.
