Brief Summary:
Patients with terminal liver failure are at risk to develop postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation. This is associated with augmented morbidity (CRRT/HD), and mortality. Hypotension perioperatively is a risk factor for the development of postoperative AKI.
In the investigators' study, the researchers aim to investigate the importance of the level of mean arterial pressure (MAP) on functional renal parameters directly after liver transplantation. 12 patients will be included after given informed and written consent.
Directly after the operation, the patients stay sedated and ventilated, have reached normovolaemia and are in need of vasopressor for adequate blood pressure. MAP is varied using the vasopressor norepinephrine.
Central hemodynamics will be measured using arterial catheter, PiCCO and a central vein catheter.
Renal data measures (RBF (renal blood flow), RPF (renal plasma flow), FF (filtration fraction), GFR (glomerular filtration rate), RVR (renal vascular resistance), Arterial-renal vein oxygen content difference, RVO2 (renal oxygen consumption), and RO2extr (Renal oxygen extraction)), are conducted via a renal vein thermodilution catheter: A 8-Fr catheter is introduced into the left or right renal vein, via the right femoral vein under fluoroscopic guidance, position being confirmed by venography using ultra-low doses of iohexol.
After the collection of blood and urine blanks, an intravenous priming dose of chromium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (51Cr-EDTA) is given, followed by an infusion at a constant rate, individualized to BSA and preoperative serum creatinine. Serum 51Cr-EDTA activity from arterial and renal vein blood is measured using a well counter. FF is measured as extraction of Cr-EDTA.
After one hour and two control measurements and urine/blood sampling on baseline MAP 75 mmHg, the investigators will randomise to continue to MAP 90 mmHg or 60 mmHg reached by altering the infusion rate of norepinephrine. Measurements, blood sampling and urine collection according to the above description, are performed after 30 min at each level, finishing at 75 mmHg with two control measurements with 30 mins in between.
