  1. Assessment of Graft Liver Function During Liver Transplantation SC 梁祥光

  2. What are we concerned about during liver transplantation?

  3. Are the conditions of the patient stable? • Does the transplanted liver work?

  4. What kinds of monitors or predictors are available?

  5. For monitoring of vital signs: ECG, Swan-Ganz, CVP, A-line, oximeter, electrolyte, acid-base, urine output, body temperature

  6. With regard to liver function, which predictors can be useful?

  7. What are these ideas based on?

  8. The functions of the liver • catabolic & anabolic functions (carbohydrate, fat & protein metabolism) • production of bile • production & execretion of bilirubin • immunological functions(cytokines & interferons) • scavenging & filtration of endotoxins & bacteria • storage of vitamin B12 & glycogen • biotransformation & elimination of drugs & xenobiotics

  9. Ideal agents • nontoxic & lack pharmacological effects • administration • rate-determining steps of elimination • route of elimination • measurement • protein-binding • cost • reliable assay • generally available Gao L et al, Anaesth Intens Care 2000; 28: 375-85

  10. Predictors or markers of liver functions(1) Hepatologist • prothrombin ratio • plasma enzymes(GOT, GPT) • bilirubin • albumin

  11. Predictors or markers of liver functions(2) Anaesthetist • capacity-limited, binding-insensitive hepatic elimination neuromuscular blocking agent, aminopyrine, caffeine • capacity-limited, binding-sensitive hepatic elimination erythromycin • flow-limited elimination ICG, galactose J. W. Sear, Br. J. Anaesth. 2002 88: 757-760.

  12. ICG • 95% albumin-binding • liver function & blood flow • IV injection(0.5mg/kg), blood sample(2ml at 5min intervals for 15-30min) • ICG elimination rate & graft liver function ICG clearance>200mi/min good liver function ICG clearance<200mi/min death, prolonged intensive care, retransplantation Gao L et al, Anaesth Intens Care 2000; 28: 375-85

  13. Rocuronium(1) Aminosteroidal muscle relaxant Elimination Major(80%): liver Minor: kidney Metabolite: 17-desacetylrocuronium Assay train-of-four gas chromatographic-mass spectrometry L Gao, Br. J. Anaesth. 2002 88: 764-770

  14. Rocuronium(2) What is observed in the administration of rocuronium? • pleohepatic phase rocuronium’s clearance is slightly less than that of patient with liver disease undergoing nontransplantation surgery and healthy control subjects • anhepatic phase rocuronium’s clearance is similar to that in the pleohepatic phase Dennis M Fisher et al, anesthesiology 1997; 86:1306-16

  15. Rocuronium(3) • neohepatic phase decreased plasma rocuronium concentration compared with that during the anhepatic phase L Gao, Br. J. Anaesth. 2002 88: 764-770

  16. Rocuronium(4) • postoperative outcome Fig 1 Percentage change in plasma recuronium concentration between neohepatic and anhepatic phases in patients who died after surgery and those who survived. L Gao, Br. J. Anaesth. 2002 88: 764-770

  17. What can we do in the future? Prediction of prognosis? ↓ Sensitivity and specificity? ↓ D/D(surgical procedure, rejection)? ↓ Management? ↓ Outcome?

  18. Thanks for your attention!
