Propofol for Sedation of Postoperative Electively Ventilated Liver Transplant Recipients.

February 6, 2019 updated by: Rishabh Jaju, Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India

Propofol for Sedation of Postoperative Electively Ventilated Liver Transplant Recipients-An Observational Study

All consenting, adult patients aged 18 years and above who will require elective ventilation after liver transplant recipient surgery will be enrolled for the study. Patients in acute liver failure, hepatic encephalopathy or patients with history of allergic reactions to propofol will be excluded from the study. This is an observational study. As per institute treatment protocol, propofol will be given post-operatively at a dose of 1 mg/kg/hr and than titrated to maintain a Bi-Spectral Index (BIS) score of 60-80 till the patient is on ventilator. There will be no deviation from our routine institutional protocol and no other sedative drugs like opioids or benzodiazepines will be used and no interventions will be done. Hemodynamics will be maintained targeting a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of at least 65 mm Hg. during the study period using appropriate measures.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 70 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Liver transplant recipients
Adult patients requiring elective post-operative ventilation after a living donor liver transplant receiving intravenous propofol infusion for sedation titrated to Bi-Spectral Index (BIS) score of 60-80,as per our institutional protocol.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Dosage of propofol in mg/kg/hr required for sedation (BIS:60-80) of postoperative electively ventilated living donor liver transplant recipients.
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
Every 2 hrly , the continuous intravenous Propofol dose going on will be recorded.
up to 24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes of propofol dose over the study period to maintain BIS between 60 -80
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
Propofol doses will be recorded titrated to BIS of 60-80
up to 24 hours
Correlation of the mean dose of propofol in mg/kg/hr with Arterial ammonia at baseline and to see the association between immediate post operative and Postoperative day1 ammonia with corresponding propofol dose.
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
Arterial ammonia levels will be noted pre-operatively, immediate post-operative and after extubation.
up to 24 hours
Correlation of propofol dose with respective arterial lactate levels every 2 hours during the period of elective ventilation
Time Frame: up to 24 hours
Lactate levels will be recorded every 2 hrs till the patient is on ventilator
up to 24 hours

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
