Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo • Sarcopenia/Muscle wasting • Commonest complication of cirrhosis • Contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality • Its prevalence in cirrhosis is estimated 40–70%
• Annual incidence: • Bleeding esophageal varices 10-15%, • Refractory ascites 5–10% • HCC 3–5%

Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo • Regular physical activity in patients with cirrhosis is considered to be important strategy for preventing or improving sarcopenia and its complications • Lifestyle guidelines recommend: • Walking of 5000 or more steps per day • Corresponds to performing approximately 15 min of brisk steps at 4 metabolic equivalent of task (MET)
Montano-Loza AJ. Minerva Gastroenterol Dietol. 2013;59:173
Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo • Percentages of waking hours spent in sedentary (80.8%), light (16.6%), and moderate-to-vigorous activity (2.5%)
• Compared with a range 7,000-13,000 steps/day in healthy adults, their mean steps/day were 2,834 ± 2,119 Physical activity in cirrhotic patients waitlisted for transplantation is highly sedentary

• Exercise, including aerobic and resistance physical activity are important for the muscle metabolism • Complications of portal hypertension, such as ascites or hepatic encephalopathy, or symptoms associate to chronic illness including significant fatigue and reduced maximum exercise capacity • Screening for portal varices

Exercise recommendations for our patients •
Drawing from other guidelines for physical activity in chronic disease
•
Moderate intensity (5-6/10 effort) x 30 min 5 days/week OR vigorous intensity (7-8/10) x 20 min 3 days/week
•
In addition 2 days/week of resistance training ~ 100-150 total reps and 10 min of daily flexibility exercises
Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo Loss of appetite: • Use external cues to stimulate intake ofamily members, oalarm clock on phone, otiming of various TV programs – eat before watching TV • Adopt philosophy that food needs to be dosed just like a medication • eat cold foods that require little preparation oCooking smells and/or labor associated with hot meal prep can negatively impact appetite

• Hospitalizations and Procedures: • Counsel patients on the importance of maintaining adequate nutrition and meal spacing before and after tests such as paracentesis, scopes, etc. • Pack nutrition supplements or bagged lunch when coming for paracentesis • Resume regular meal patterns as soon as able
Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo Using Nutrition assessment data (nutrient analysis of food record) it is important to comparatively assess caloric intake against caloric requirements •Estimated energy requirements • ESPEN Guidelines: 35-40 kcal/kg • ASPEN Guidelines: 25-40 kcal/kg •
Energy requirements based on estimated dry weight
Importancia del Ejercicio para Mantener el Músculo An Example: •50 kg (post tap weight) female with ETOH cirrhosis, refractory ascites. • Complaints of early satiety, weakness, poor appetite, and visible evidence of muscle mass wasting in temporal region, both upper and lower extremities. •BMI 17.5 using recent post tap weight •UBW of 65 kg 6 months ago - prior to initial presentation with ascites, prolonged hospital stay of 1 month
Estimated intake based on Food Record: •450 kcal/day on day of paracentesis (skipped breakfast and lunch, had only an ensure and piece of toast with peanut butter in evening once home). 1200 kcal/day on day following paracentesis – pt describes this as her “best” eating day out of the whole week Estimated requirements: 35-40 kcal/kg = 1750-2000 kcal/day

Here is an example… • Counsel patient on caloric deficit – even in non-cirrhotic physiology: Energy in < Energy out = WEIGHT LOSS • Only accelerated in state of hypermetabolic state PLAN: •3 meals each providing ~400 kcal 400 kcal = 1 ensure plus, 1 piece of fruit 400 kcal = 2 slices bread, 1.5 tbsp peanut butter, 1 glass of milk 400 kcal = 3 oz meat, 1 medium potato •3 snacks each providing ~200 kcal 200 kcal = 100 g Greek yogurt, 1 banana 200 kcal = 6-8 crackers with cheddar cheese 200 kcal = 1 egg on toast with 1 tsp butter or margarine

• Loss of Body Protein • High protein diet: • ESPEN Guidelines 1.0-1.5 g/kg • What does this look like? What makes a high protein snack?

Sarcopenia, deconditioning and frailty are all associated with a poor prognosis Exercise (in association with adequate nutritional therapy) is a key therapy Small studies support the role of supervised and home exercise therapy in improving exercise capacity and muscle mass in compensated disease Future studies will need to elicit the optimal exercise prescription, translation to patients with decompensated disease and mechanisms of improving adherence
