The principles of management for acute liver failure are: 1. Accurate diagnosis of the type--fulminant, late onset, acute on chronic--and establishment of likely aetiology. 2. Early detection and treatment of complications, particularly metabolic acidosis (early), renal failure, cerebral oedema and infections (late). 3.
