Incidence of Postreperfusion Hyperfibrinolysis in Liver Transplantation by Donor Type and Observed Treatment Strategies.
Hyperfibrinolysis is a possible complication during liver transplantation, particularly immediately after reperfusion. ⋯ Anesthesiologists should be aware of the possibility of postreperfusion hyperfibrinolysis in liver transplantation, particularly with DCD donors, and may consider treatment with cryoprecipitate or tranexamic acid. Further work is needed to identify any potential differences, such as faster resolution of fibrinolysis, between different treatment modalities.
