Portal Pressure Effects of Phlebotomy Combined to Vasopressin Use in Cirrhotic Patients Undergoing Liver Transplantation (PORTAL)
Portal Pressure Effects of Phlebotomy Combined to Vasopressin Use in Cirrhotic Patients Undergoing Liver Transplantation: the PORTAL Study.
Study Overview
Status
Detailed Description
METHODS
Objectives
The primary objective will be to measure the hemodynamic effects of vasopressin on portal pressure in cirrhotic patients who have had a hypovolemic phlebotomy during a liver transplant.
The secondary objectives will be to measure the effects of vasopressin on portal pressure in patients who have not had a phlebotomy and to compare this effect between patients who have or have not had a hypovolemic phlebotomy.
The tertiary objective will be to assess the effect of the variation in portal pressure under vasopressin, associated or not with a hypovolemic phlebotomy, on hemorrhagic clinical outcomes (intraoperative bleeding and blood transfusions).

Cirrhotic patients undergoing a liver transplantation
The investigators aim to conduct a prospective observational, non-interventional study including all cirrhotic patients undergoing a liver transplantation with a planned use of vasopressin during the surgery.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Portal pressure measurement
Time Frame: During the surgery (intraoperatively)
|
The venous pressure in the liver will be measured by inserting a very fine needle in the portal vein.
The needle will be connected to a pressure sensor and will be removed after the measurement.
This measure will be performed at three different moments during the surgery; 1) as soon as possible after the incision; 2) 5 minutes after the end of the hypovolemic phlebotomy (if performed); 3) 10 minutes after the start of vasopressin infusion.

During the surgery (intraoperatively)

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Intraoperative blood loss
Time Frame: At the end of the surgery
|
During the liver transplantation, a cell salvage device (Cell Saver) will be set up in the operating room.
As the surgery progresses, the blood lost by the patient will be collected using suctions.
The volume of blood (mL) in the suctions will be measured at the end of the surgery, before the blood is cleaned and returned back to the patient.
|
At the end of the surgery
|
Packed red blood cell transfusion rates
Time Frame: Intraoperatively and up to 24 hours following surgery
|
Number of units of packed red blood cells transfused to participants will be recorded.
|
Intraoperatively and up to 24 hours following surgery
|
Rate of acute kidney injury (AKI) grade 2 or 3
Time Frame: Assessed at 24 hours and 48 hours following surgery
|
The onset or worsening of acute postoperative grade 2 or 3 renal failure according to KDIGO-AKI criteria.
|
Assessed at 24 hours and 48 hours following surgery
|
Rate of new renal therapy replacement
Time Frame: Postoperative setting up to 7 days following surgery
|
Any need of new renal therapy replacement occurring during the hospital stay up to 7 days following surgery will be recorded.
|
Postoperative setting up to 7 days following surgery
