Randomized Controlled Trial to Study the Outcome of Intravenous Phosphate Supplementation in Live Donors Undergoing Hepatectomy for Living Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT)

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Regeneration Liver
Complication, Postoperative
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04026438
Lead Sponsor
Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India
Brief Summary

In this study, we aim to analyse the effect of phosphate supplementation on donors undergoing partial hepatectomy for LDLT. In Group A, we are going to supplement phosphate in donors postoperatively from day 1 to day 5. We will analyse the trend of serum phosphate levels in donors postoperatively, its correlation with occurrence of postoperative complications and status of liver regeneration by CT volumetry on Day 7. Group B will constitute the controls for the study and hence attempt to find out the effect of phosphate supplementation in all donors postoperatively. We will analyse the data and elucidate the value of phosphate supplementation in reducing the occurrence of complications and effect on liver regeneration in donors in LDLT.
