Preoperative beta blockade and severe intraoperative bradycardia in liver transplantation

Abstract: Nonselective Beta blockade (NSBB) is commonly prescribed for liver transplantation (LT) candidates, but its impact on intraoperative hemodynamics is not well understood. In this study, we investigated if preoperative NSBB was associated with severe bradycardia during LT and if severe intraoperative bradycardia was associated with 30‐day mortality. Adult patients undergoing LT between 2005 and 2014 were included. Propensity matching was used to control selection bias. Intraoperative hemodynamics were compared b… Show more

“…Preoperatively administered beta-blockade may contribute to the development of IOH during LT surgery; however, it has not been associated with postoperative mortality in LT patients. 15 A good understanding of the degree and duration of hypotension that are associated with mortality has important clinical implications. When IOH reaches a dangerously low level, prompt treatment is necessary.…”

“…Beta blocker has been widely used to treat variceal bleeding in LT patients. From a cardiac standpoint, beta blocker significantly reduced postoperative myocardial infarction risk, but it also increases intraoperative bradycardia, postoperative stroke, and mortality . Intraoperative hypotension is associated with PMI, acute kidney injury, and death; therefore, severe and prolonged hypotension should be avoided during LT. Because LT patients usually have low systemic vascular resistance, the cutoff values of hypotension may be different compared with those undergoing noncardiac surgery.…”

“…Use of perioperative β-blockers may significantly affect the development of bradycardia during LT and may relate to a poor outcome. Fu et al 58 at UCLA performed a propensity-matched study on 1452 patients undergoing LT between 2005 and 2014. They matched 370 LT patients who received preoperative nonselective β-blockers at a 1:1 ratio with those who did not.…”
