Brief Summary:
This project is a pilot randomized controlled trial aimed at investigating the potential of Carica Papaya Leaf Extract, available in a marketed pill formulation, in increasing platelet counts in live donor liver transplant recipients. Carica Papaya leaf extract has shown positive results in increasing platelet counts in various medical conditions such as Dengue, Immune thrombocytopenic purpura and chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia. Thrombocytopenia i.e. low platelet counts are a common occurrence in patients with chronic liver disease undergoing live donor liver transplant. It has been observed in previous studies that live donor liver transplant recipients who have persistent thrombocytopenia have significantly worse outcomes as compared to patients who have higher platelet counts. Positive results in this study lead to further studies in assessing the impact of platelet augmentation in live donor liver transplant recipients.
