- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The main study parameter is graft survival at 3 months after transplantation. </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Secondary study parameters:<br /><br>- Graft and patient survival at 7 days and 1 month.<br /><br>- Primary non-function (PNF): Occurrence of retransplantation or patient death<br /><br>within the first 7 days after OLT, without any identifiable cause of graft<br /><br>dysfunction(12).<br /><br>- Early allograft dysfunction (EAD), presence of one or more of the following<br /><br>variables (13):<br /><br>o Elevation of AST and/or ALT above a defined cut-off value (>2000 IU/mL )<br /><br>within the first 7 days after OLT;<br /><br>o Elevated international normalized ratio (INR) of *1.6 on day 7 after OLT;<br /><br>o Elevated bilirubin levels of *10 mg/dL on day 7 after OLT.<br /><br>- Development of non-anastomotic biliary strictures (NAS).<br /><br>- Biochemical analysis of graft function and ischemia-reperfusion injury<br /><br>determined with serum levels of ALT, AST, AlkP, *GT, INR, lactate, creatinine,<br /><br>platelets and total bilirubin at postoperative day 0-7 and 1 and 3 months. </p><br>
