Résumé

Purpose@#Deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) recipients in Korea are generally sicker due to an increasing organ shortage. In the present study, the risk factors for early 30-day liver graft failure after DDLT were identified. @*Methods@#From August 2017 to February 2021, 265 adult DDLTs were performed. The characteristics of patients with and without 30-day graft failure were compared. @*Results@#Liver graft failure occurred in 11 patients (17.7%) after DDLT. Baseline and perioperative characteristics of donors and recipients were not statistically significantly different between the 2 groups. The cumulative graft and overall survival rates at 6 months were 83.9% and 88.7%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed ventilator support in the pretransplant period was a predisposing factor for 30-day graft failure after DDLT. @*Conclusion@#Present study indicates that cautious decision is required when allocating DDLT in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilatory support.

Résumé

The diagnosis of brain death is essential for deceased donor organ transplantation. Currently, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used to increase the chance of survival of patients with severe cardiac and respiratory failure. Therefore, cases of ECMO-dependent potential donors are increasing. The apnea test (AT) is a mandatory component in the clinical determination of brain death. However, conventional AT is not easily applicable to ECMO-dependent potential donors because both the ventilator and ECMO play an important role in carbon dioxide elimination. Accordingly, different methods of AT from those used in routine procedures must be considered. We report here a case of conventional AT with time delay and two cases of AT within 3 minutes by adjusting sweep gas flow rate of ECMO in ECMO-dependent potential donors.
