Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To study the association of the thoracic fluid content and acute lung injury during liver transplantation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Acute lung injury is not uncommon after liver transplantation. A new monitor non-invasive cardiac output monitor (NICOM) is designed to measure thoracic fluid content. The investigators attempt to use the parameter thoracic fluid content to investigate its relationship with acute lung injury in liver transplant recipients.
