Abstract:
Objective To analyze related perioperative risk factors of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) early after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).Methods The cases from the recipients having undergoing OLT,aged from 15 to 65 years and having no chronic respiratory diseases and hyoxemia were collected.The exclusive criteria were as follows:(1) the patients dead or automatic discharging at the day after the OLT or during the OLT; (2) the patients suffered from severe surgical technic complications; (3) initial poor graft function occurred; (4) marginal donor; (5) pulmonary wedge pressure (PAWP)> 2.394kPa.251 patients were enrolled in this analysis,who were grouped according to whether they developed ARDS (group B) or not (group A) in the first postoperative day.The analyzed factors were as follows:(1) the sex,age and weight of the recipients; (2) preoperative variables of recipients:Child-Pugh and Model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score,left vent ricular ejection fractions,oxygenation index,the serum levels of creatinine,BUN,TB,albumin,prealbumin,fibrinogen and hemoglobin,white blood cells (WBC),platelet count and international normalized ratio (INR) ; (3) the variables of donator:age,the time of warm and cold ischemia; (4) the intraoperative variables:operative time,anhepatic phase,the volumes of hemorrhage and blood-transfusion (red cell suspension and plasma),transfusion volume; (5) postoperative variables of recipients:the serum levels of creatinine,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),total bilirubin (TB),albumin,alanine aminotransferase (ALT),sodium and potassium,fibrinogen and hemoglobin,WBC,platelet count and INR.Results The mild ARDS incidence early after OLT was 25.5 % (65/251) and the moderate or severe was 4.8% (12/265).Single factor analysis showed that the factors having significant difference between group A and group B were as follows:the age of the recipients,preoperative variables (Child-Pugh and MELD score,the preoperative serum levels of BUN,TB,prealbumin,fibrinogen and hemoglobin,WBC,platelet count and INR),the intraoperative variables (the volumes of hemorrhage and blood-transfusion including red cell suspension and plasma) and the postoperative variables (the serum levels of BUN,TB,sodium,fibrinogen and hemoglobin,WBC,platelet count and INR).The significant factors were put to the analysis of LOGISTIC regression,and the results showed that the age of recipients,preoperative Child-Pugh score,BUN and INR,intraoperative hemorrhage volume,postoperative serum level of sodium were the independent risks contributing to ARDS.Conclusion The mild ARDS incidence early after OLT was high but the the moderate or severe incidence was low.The age of recipients,preoperative Child-Pugh score,BUN and INR,intraoperative hemorrhage volume and postoperative serum level of sodium may be the main risk factors to lung injury after OLT.
