Official title
"Investigation of the Clinical Predictive Value of p50 Value in Liver Transplant Surgeries"
Overview
The aim of this study is to compare the p50 value in routine blood gas measurements taken during liver transplant surgery follow-up with other follow-up parameters and clinical findings on the monitors, and to investigate whether there is a predictive parameter that can predict the rapidly changing clinical findings of the patients.
Detailed description
Blood gas monitoring is the most commonly method used by anesthetists during liver transplant surgeries. We evaluated the blood gas p50 value according to the stages in these heart transplant operations. We tried to find out how the blood gas p50 value would guide the patient's clinical findings in the dissection phase, anhepatic phase and neohepatic phase. For this purpose, we compared arterial and venous blood gas p50 values with the patient's vital signs at certain stages in liver transplant surgeries.
Primary outcome measures
- p50 changes during liver transplant surgery [Time frame: T0: at the end of the dissection before clamps T1: 5 min. before reperfusion (anhepatic) T2: 30 min. after reperfusion of the liver graft (neohepatic) T3: after hepatic artery reperfusion T4: End of the operation]
