Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cisatracurium in patients with end-stage liver disease undergoing liver transplantation.
We determined the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cisatracurium, one of the 10 isomers of atracurium, in 14 patients with end-stage liver disease undergoing liver transplantation and in 11 control patients with normal hepatic and renal function undergoing elective surgery. Blood samples were collected for 8 h after i.v. bolus administration of cisatracurium 0.1 mg kg-1 (2 x ED95). Plas...
متن کاملUtility of Modeling End-Stage Liver Disease in Children with Chronic Liver Disease
Introduction: Chronic liver diseases consist of wide spectrum disorders that may be complicated by cirrhosis and therefore need to transplantation. The pediatric end-stage liver disease (PELD) score and model of end-stage liver disease (MELD) score has been used as predictors of mortality chronic liver diseases listed for liver transplantation. The aim of this study is evaluation of relation be...
متن کاملPharmacodynamics of cisatracurium in adults and children undergoing living donor liver transplantation
This study aims to investigate the pharmacodynamics of bolus administration of cisatracurium in adults and children undergoing living donor liver transplantation. Forty-two patients (ASA III) undergoing living donor liver transplantation were assigned to group A (21 adults) or group B (21 children affected by congenital biliary atresia). All patients received a 2 fold ED95 of cisatracurium (0.1...
متن کاملOrthotopic liver transplantation in patients with human immunodeficiency virus and end-stage liver disease.
Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) most often have hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B (HBV) virus coinfection, or both, as a cause of their liver disease. Recent survival statistics show that patients infected with HIV treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can expect a significant prolongation of life by interfering with the natural progression of HIV to ac...
متن کاملBlood carnitine status after orthotopic liver transplantation in patients with end-stage liver disease.
We determined the effects of orthotopic liver transplantation on plasma and red cell carnitine concentrations in patients with end-stage liver disease. Before transplantation, plasma and red cell carnitine were significantly elevated above normal. The partitioning factor (ratio of red cell carnitine to plasma carnitine) was four times greater than that observed in our reference population. Afte...
