No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The cerebrovascular autoregulation (AR) is impaired in patients with hepatic encephalopathy. Patients with the indication to liver transplantation mostly have mild to severe hepatic encephalopathy. Transplantation should recover the encephalopathy. The aim of the study is to investigate the AR during liver transplantation, with the questions if the AR is impaired at the beginning of surgery and if there are changes in AR. For follow up the AR will be measured at the first days after transplantation at the ICU.
