Perioperative Lactate Kinetics in Patient Undergoing Major Liver Surgery

August 12, 2020 updated by: Popescu Mihai, Institutul Clinic Fundeni

Evaluation of Lactate Levels in as a Risk Factor for Posthepatectomy Liver Failure

Major liver surgery is associated with increased incidence of perioperative complications and increased mortality if these are not addressed quickly in a high dependency intensive care unit. Of these, posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) represents one of the most important cause of postoperative unfavourable outcome. The present study investigates the correlation between lactate levels and PHLF. Lactate levels were collected at six specific timepoints: preoperative, pre-dissection phase, post-dissection phase, end of surgery and 24-hours and 48-hours in the postoperative period.
