Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes in cerebral oxygen metabolism during liver transplantation in patients with liver cirrhoses.Methods Sixteen ASAⅢorⅣpatients with liver cirrhoses(14 male,2 female)aged 25-67 yrs,weighing 45-80 kg undergoing liver transplantation were studied.Radial artery was cannulated for direct BP monitoring and blood sampling.Swan-Ganz catheter was placed in pulmonary artery (PA)via right internal jugular vein(IJV)for cardiac output(CO)monitoring and sampling mixed venous blood. Left IJV was cannulated and the catheter was advanced cephalad until jugular bulb for blood sampling.Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,fentanyl,propefol and vecuronium and maintained with isoflurane inhalation and intermittentⅣboluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.The patients were mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation.PaCO_2 was maintained between 30-45 mm Hg.Blood samples were taken from radial artery,pulmonary artery and jugular bulb simultaneously for blood gas analysis before operation(T_0,baseline),10 min before anhepatic phase(T_1)20 min after onset of anhepatic phase(T_2),30 min after graft reperfusion(T_3)and at the end of operation(T_4).Oxygen delivery(DO_2),oxygen consumption(VO_2),oxygen content of jugular bulb blood (CjvO_2),cerebral arterial-venous oxygen content differences(Ca-jvO_2)cerebral oxygen extraction ratio(CERO_2) and CBF/CMRO_2 were calculated.Results The mean duration of operation was(364?51)min and the mean intraoperative blood loss was(1340?430)ml.CO was significantly increased before anhepatic phase(T_1), during neohepatic phase(T_3)and at the end of operation(T_4)but decreased during anhepatc phase(T_2)as compared with the baseline value at T_0.Hb,CaO_2,Ca-jvO_2 and CERO_2 were all decreased while SjvO_2 and CBF/ CMRO_2 were increased during operation;DO_2,VO_2 and CjvO_2 were decreased during anhepatic phase;DO_2 was increased during other phases;VO_2 was increased at the end of operation as compared with the baseline(T_0)(P＜0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion There is no cerebral oxygen deficiency during liver transplantation in patients with liver cirrhoses.
