This study observes how blood circulates through your body and organs in the hours right after liver transplant surgery. Researchers want to understand patterns that might help doctors manage recovery better and spot problems early.
This study uses a tiny probe placed in the new liver during transplant surgery to monitor its health in real time. It may help doctors detect problems early and improve recovery after transplant.
This trial measures how blood flow changes in arteries feeding the kidney and gut while patients are on a heart-lung machine during heart surgery. It may help doctors better understand and prevent organ damage after surgery.
This trial tests a device that checks how well blood flows in tiny vessels during your liver transplant surgery. It may help doctors better understand your body's response during the operation.
This trial tests a procedure to lower blood loss during liver transplant for patients with high blood pressure in the liver. It may help those who have had a previous transplant, abdominal surgery, or certain complications of liver disease.
