Echo-cardiographic parameters to predict Post Reperfusion Syndrome during LivingDonor Liver Transplantation: A Prospective Study

Patients undergoing liver transplant frequently display considerable physiological changes during the procedures as a result of both the disease process and the surgery. Haemodynamic changes occurring during liver transplantation are severe and rapid. Eechocardiography is a non invasive monitor that provides information regarding dynamic function of heart, volume status, contractility, regional wall motion. Vital information which can be gathered from standard echocardiography views includes biventricular function, valvular function, volume status, pericardial abnormalities, intra-cardiac thrombus, pulmonary embolism, ventricular outflow obstruction, cardiac tamponade.

As per our literature,echocardiographic parameters have never been studied to predict the post reperfusion syndrome during living donor liver transplantation. Hence, we are conducting this study to find the echocardiographic parameters which can predict the post reperfusion syndrome during living donor liver transplantation.
