| Abstract: |
As there is no alternative treatment of PNF beyond supportive care and retransplantation DPR demonstrated utility as an adjunct salvage therapy until the patient's retransplant. B Introduction: b Early allograft dysfunction (EAD) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) manifests in a spectrum of complications associated with early graft loss and mortality. Direct peritoneal resuscitation (DPR), used in trauma patients to decrease intra-abdominal edema and inflammation while simultaneously increasing microvascular circulation, poses therapeutic benefits to patients with EAD.
