Abstract

A variety of laboratory tests are used in the evaluation of the hepatic patients. Serum cholinesterase is reduced in liver disfunction in contrast with other enzymes. The aim of this study was to assess the value of serum cholinesterase in evaluation of the liver reserve function in cirrhotic patients. A total of 70 patients were divided into 3 groups according to the Child-Pugh Score. Using corelation analysis, the correlation between serum cholinesterase and albumin and serum plasma prothrombin time was analysed. Cirrhotic patients were grouped into A, B and C grades as per Child-Pugh score.

The results showed that cholinesterase levels tend to decrease according to the Child-Pugh score. The cholinesterase correlated with the albumin serum levels, value of Child-Pugh score and MELD-Na score and didn’t corelate to INR. In conclusion, correlated with the damage severity of the liver cells cholinesterase may respond to liver reserve function.
