About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)-guided AI model can guide TIPS procedure in adults better than conventional TIPS procedure (artificially blinded TIPS). TIPS surgical outcomes and intraoperative and postoperative complications will also be observed. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does the AI model lower the number of punctures, radiation dose, and complications of participants undergo TIPS? * Does the AI model improve the efficacy of TIPS for participants?

Participants will:

* Take the TIPS by the guidance of the AI model or conventional manually blinded penetration (placebo) * The number of punctures, the success rate of the procedure, the radiation dose, intraoperative complications and postoperative complications within 3 months will be recorded * Intraoperative portal pressure gradient drop values, symptoms of ascites and rebleeding within 3 months after TIPS will be reported

Eligibility criteria

Treatments tested in this trial

  • AI guided TIPS

    Other intervention

    The TIPS procedure will be conducted under the guidance of AI model which was constructed based on the pre-operation enhanced CT images and intra-operation DSA images.

  • Artificially blinded TIPS

    Other intervention

    The TIPS procedure will be conducted based on the experience of operators.

Treatment groups

180 Participants

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of punctures

The number of punctures is defined as the number of punctures to the liver during the establishment of the puncture channel during the TIPS procedure.

Time frame
From the beginning to the end of the TIPS procedure.

Secondary outcomes

1

Radiation dose

Radiation dose from the TIPS procedure.

Time frame
From the beginning to the end of the TIPS procedure.
2

Surgical success rate

Procedural success was defined as the success of placing a stent and reducing the portal pressure gradient during the TIPS procedure

Time frame
From the beginning to the end of the TIPS procedure.
3

Complications

Complications are defined as bleeding, infection, and other complications due to puncture.

Time frame
From enrollment to the end of the TIPS procedure at 3 months.

Other outcomes

1

Portal pressure gradient

The hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is an indirect method of assessing the portal pressure gradient by determining the difference between wedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP) and free hepatic venous pressure (FHVP). pressure (FHVP), which reflects the pressure difference between the portal vein and the intra-abdominal vena cava.

Time frame
From the beginning to the end of the TIPS procedure.
