Intraoperative Continuous Terlipressin Infusion is Associated With Reduced Severe Postoperative Complications After Laparoscopic Hepatectomy: a Prospective Propensity Score-matched Cohort Study

Sponsor: First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University

Summary

Liver resection is an important surgical treatment for patients with liver diseases. Despite advances in surgical and anesthetic management, postoperative complications remain a major concern and may affect patient recovery. Maintaining stable blood circulation during surgery is an important part of perioperative care. Terlipressin is a vasoactive medication that may help maintain blood pressure and improve hemodynamic stability during surgery. However, the relationship between intraoperative continuous terlipressin infusion and postoperative outcomes after laparoscopic hepatectomy remains unclear. This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate the association between continuous intraoperative terlipressin infusion and postoperative severe complications in patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy. Patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University will be enrolled and followed according to a predefined study protocol. Perioperative clinical information, anesthetic management data, terlipressin exposure, and postoperative outcomes will be collected and analyzed. The primary outcome is the occurrence of severe postoperative complications, defined as Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher complications.
