Abstract
It has been difficult for the clinician to evaluate quantitatively and qualitatively the degree of damage to the liver in the presence of congestive heart failure. This paper gives a statistical analysis of the results of various liver function tests on a group of patients with congestive heart failure. The analysis includes comparisons based on etiology, type of rhythm, duration of heart failure, and nutrition.Keywords
