Clinical application of intraoperative somatic tissue oxygen saturation for detecting postoperative early kidney dysfunction patients undergoing living donor liver transplantation: A propensity score matching analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Somatic tissue oxygen saturation (SstO2) is associated with systemic hypoperfusion. Kidney dysfunction may lead to increased mortality and morbidity in patients who undergo living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). We investigated the clinical utility of SstO2 during LDLT for identifying postoperative kidney dysfunction.

Patients and methods

Data from 304 adults undergoing elective LDLT between January 2015 and February 2020 at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital were retrospectively collected. Thirty-six patients were excluded based on the exclusion criteria. In total, 268 adults were analyzed, and 200 patients were 1:1 propensity score (PS)-matched.

Results

Patients with early kidney dysfunction had significantly lower intraoperative SstO2 values than those with n
