's prevention and health care of high-pressure patient's feasible liver transplantation of lung artery
According to British scholar, if heart index can keep, can survive to severe the intersection of lung and the intersection of artery and high-pressure patient after liver transplantation in the great majority, and does not die from the artery high pressure of lung in following up a case by regular visits to the course for a long time.

Queen of Birmingham Elizabeth the intersection of Peter Starkel and Dr. and their colleague of hospital choose from 1997 to 1999 to go on research by 145 patients of liver transplantation indirectly, have assessed the artery high pressure of lung (PHT) Impact on prognosis of liver transplantation.

Researchers carry on the electrocardiogram and interesting inspection of supersound to most patients before transplantation. Meanwhile,they slightly with in to it is severe PHT. Found finally, the incidence of PHT was 26% (38 in 145 patients) ,Among them 31 are slight PHT.

Researchers carry on Kaplan-Meier and survive to analyze, have not found normal PAP patient and PHT patient (all patients, namely expire by severely sum slightly) Survival rate existence prominent difference. Moreover, PHT does not influence the patient's machinery of surviving to keep in touch with time and ICU.

Researchers point out, 5 average PAPs are greater than 4 cases of the above of one year of surviving after transplantation in the patient of 40 mmHg. They think, though slight PHT is more common, it will not influence and transplant the patient's prognosis. In addition, the supersound aroused in interest is pursued be able to measure most severe PHT, but unable to measure slightly and intermediate PHT.

nbspStarkel doctor thinks, takes care the index can survive in the great majority after transplantation to the patient of severe PHT when being maintained.
