Liver disease now affects up to 3 of every 10 Australian adults. Primary liver cancer is the most rapidly rising cause of cancer death. Health promotion, prevention, proactive case-finding, early identification of progressive liver fibrosis and early treatment of liver diseases are essential to prevent premature mortality. Learn how to identify, manage and support your patients with liver disease.

On completion of this education activity participants will be able to:
  • Identify patients at risk of liver disease and manage risk factors.
  • Diagnose and assess severity of liver disease in primary care.
  • Develop systems to manage and monitor early liver disease to prevent complications.
  • Assess the benefit of integrated care in supporting patients with advanced liver disease.

This activity is part of the education that won the Excellence in Education category at the 2023 Australian life sciences industry PRIME awards for ThinkGP and the Liver Foundation.

This independent medical activity is sponsored by the Liver Foundation, supported by an unrestricted education grant from Novo Nordisk.
