NCT07442201

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate carotid peak systolic velocity variability using intraoperative ultrasound and to determine whether this method is useful in the assessment of hemodynamic status and intravascular volume in liver transplantation. Previously, a similar study was performed in liver transplant intensive care unit, but no study was performed to evaluate intraperative fluid status with carotid ultrasonography.
