[To the issue of postreperfusion syndrome predictors in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT)]

The aim of the study is revelation of postperfusion syndrome (pPS) predictors in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).

Was conducted a retrospective analysis of anesthesia maintainance protocols during orthotopic liver transplantation in 261 patients aged from 6 months to 60 years. Investigated the effect of various factors on the development of PPS by the application of methods of non-parametric statistics.

Significantly more frequent development of the PPS is noted in the age group from 3 to 18 years (up to 30% of patients). In recipients older than 18 years the frequency of the development of the PPS does not depend on age, with an average of 14%. The development of the PPS does not depend on the recipient sex, the nature of the pathology which served as an indication to the OTP, the initial severity of the state, type of OTP (living related donor or cadaveric transplantation, primary or re-transplantation), the transplant warm ischemia duration, use, or the lack of venous-venous bypass, metabolic status of the patient. The obtained results do not contradict to the data of foreign publications. Among parameters available for screening, predictor of PPS was not detected.
