Abstract Transplantation surgery continues to evolve and improve through advancements in transplant technique technology. With the increased availability of ultrasound machines as well continued development Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocols, regional anesthesia has become an essential component providing analgesia minimizing opioid use perioperatively. Many centers currently utilize peripheral neuraxial blocks during transplantation surgery, but these techniques are far from...

ABSTRACT Introduction While living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) serves as the predominant method of adult transplant (LT) in Republic Korea (ROK), it represents a minority LT United States (US). A survey was conducted to gain insight into these nations’ anesthetic management. Methods An electronic questionnaire distributed directors anesthesiology overseeing LDLT programs both countries between May 2021 and October 2021.

The anesthesia community has openly debated if the care of transplant patients was generalist or specialist ever since publication an opinion paper in 1999 recommended subspecialty training field liver transplantation anesthesia. In past decade, become more complex with a sicker patient population and evolving evidence-based practices. Transplant is currently not required for accreditation certification anesthesiology, all residency programs are associated centers. Yet there evidence that...
Postoperative pain associated with open partial hepatectomy can be intense and persistent. The multimodal approach used to lessen this problem includes an intraoperative intravenous infusion of lidocaine hydrochloride. Decreased hepatic metabolism after resection raises concerns about safe dosing in patient population. hypothesis was that the elimination clearance its metabolites, monoethylglycinexylidide glycinexylidide, is reduced a hepatectomy, as reflected by observed plasma...
A 40-year-old male with alcoholic cirrhosis and end-stage renal disease presented for simultaneous liver kidney transplantation. Hemodialysis was utilized intraoperatively during During the procedure, patient developed refractory hypotension ultimately received hydroxocobalamin vasoplegia. Shortly after administration, hemodialysis machine ceased working a “blood leak” alarm developed. Without ability to continue intraoperative dialysis, transplantation portion of his surgery postponed. The...
