Abstract
Alcohol consumption is increasing in the UK, bringing an increased incidence of cirrhosis, which in turn can lead to hepatic encephalopathy. This complication of cirrhosis can be devastating for patients and their families, and incurs a large health economic burden to the NHS. Cirrhosis is, of course, preventable. As disease prevention is at the heart of the NHS Long Term Plan, it can be used as the basis of a 10-year plan to avoid the complications of chronic liver disease.
