| Study type | Observational |
The present study is to demonstrate the effect of the presence of bacterial translocation detected by bacterial deoxyribonucleic acid (bactDNA) in blood and ascites using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on some haemodynamic and coagulation parameters during a liver transplant procedure.
