Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the hemodynamic parameters, Blood loss, Renal function, at fixed time points during perioperative period and duration of surgery between two groupsTimepoint: Time line for measurement for intra op haemodynamic parameters T0- At the beginning of the procedure T1- Before portocaval shunt formation T2- Just before Reperfusion of graft liver T3- 5 mins after Reperfusion of graft liver T4-Before closure of the abdomen Blood Loss- Measured at the end of Liver Transplantation procedure Post op Renal function- POD0 till patient is discharged Duration of surgery- From incision time to end of procedure

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Early allograft dysfunctionTimepoint: For 5 consecutive days after day 7;Endotoxin levelsTimepoint: Levels of Serum endotoxin levels in pre op and 12 hours after surgery;ICU and hospital stayTimepoint: POD0 till discharge;Incidence of Morbidity and sepsisTimepoint: POD0 till discharge;To compare tolerance to enteral feed between two groupsTimepoint: Tolerance to enteral feeding in the post op period is Post operative day patient tolerates NG feed
