Biliary Atresia Intrahepatic Syndromic Form Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Intraoperative Normal Saline vs Lactated Ringer on Outcomes in Pediatric Liver Transplantation: A Double-blind Randomized Trial
Lactated Ringer(LR) has been extensively used to maintain and replace intravascular volume in a variety of anesthetic procedures. However, the utility of LR in pediatric with hepatic failure undergoing liver transplantation is unclear, because addition of exogenous lactate may increase lactate concentration. In addition,large amounts of normal saline(NS) which does not contain lactate can induce a hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and have been asociated with adverse effects on kidney injury, coagulation, and death. Accordingly, the investigators performed a double-blinded randomized trial comparing the effects of intraoperative NS or LR on outcomes in pediatric receiving Liver transplantation.
