Fluid balance dynamics and early postoperative outcomes in orthotopic liver transplantation: a prospective cohort study
Our study provides valuable insights into the relationship between FB patterns and mortality in OLT patients. Both negative and positive extremes of FB are associated with higher mortality, suggesting the need for a balanced and individualized fluid management approach. The strong predictive value of SOFA<sub>LIVER</sub> scores for all-cause mortality highlights the importance of early and continuous monitoring of liver function. Future multicenter randomized controlled trials are needed to validate these findings and develop optimized fluid management protocols for OLT patients.
