Summary

Liver transplantation carries a substantial risk of bleeding, making precise haemostasis control essential, although assessing coagulation remains challenging. Quantra, a bedside viscoelastic testing device using sonorheometric methods, offers an innovative approach to guiding haemostatic management during surgery. The study aims to determine whether a Quantra-guided transfusion can reduce transfusion and bleeding during liver transplantation when compared to a conventional transfusion approach.

Conditions

  • Liver Transplantation

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Transfusion algorithm based on Quantra®

In addition to routine coagulation tests, a Quantra Qstat® analysis will be performed at baseline (before incision), at the end of native liver dissection, and after unclamping of the venous anastomoses. In the event of bleeding, additional Quantra Qstat® analyses may be conducted until bleeding control is achieved. Transfusion and administration of blood-derived medications will be guided by the results of the Quantra Qstat® analyses.

BIOLOGICAL

Conventional transfusion algorithm

Transfusion and blood-derived medications will be guided by the results of routine coagulation tests.
