Summary

The investigators are trying to evaluate the clinical effect of remote ischemic postconditioning on liver graft function and postoperative renal function in subjects undergoing living-donor liver transplantation.

Conditions

  • Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury of Liver Graft
  • Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury of Kidney
  • Remote Ischemic Postconditioning

Interventions

OTHER

RIPC

Those undergoing remote ischemic postconditioning. Remote ischemic postconditioning consists of three 5-min cycles of upper limb ischemia, which was induced by an automated cuff-inflator placed on the unilateral upper limb and inflated to 250 mm Hg, with an intervening 5 min of reperfusion during which the cuff was deflated.
