Brief Summary: Inhalation anesthesia; It means that the anesthetic drugs taken by the respiratory tract pass into the blood through the lung alveoli, reach the brain tissue, and create an anesthetic effect according to the density in the brain tissue. All inhalation anesthetics affect organ functions to varying degrees. Clara cell has been shown to have cell regeneration, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity in the bronchial epithelium. It is also thought that some substances accumulated in the respiratory system participate in the detoxification. Clara cell protein acts as a protein marker that indicates the severity of airway injuries after exposure to irritants. In this study, we planned to investigate the effect of inhalation anesthetics on Clara cell protein in liver transplant donors who will undergo hepatectomy surgery.
Detailed Description: Inhalation anesthesia is still an important source of chemical hazard in the hospital environment due to its widespread use in operating rooms. Factors affecting the presence of anesthetic gases in the environment; device leakage, ventilation, fresh gas flow, and operation of the air cleaning system. Long-term exposure to anesthetic gases is known to adversely affect the health of employees in the operating room. Clara cell plays a reliable role as a large bronchiolar progenitor cell that can contribute to cell regeneration in the bronchial epithelium. Thus, it contributes to the protection of the normal epithelium of the distal conductive airways. Additionally, it has been shown to have immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activity. It is thought that some substances accumulated in the respiratory system participate in the detoxification. Operations of patients undergoing hepatectomy usually take 4-6 hours. Inhalation anesthetics are widely used during this surgery. In this study, we thought to show the effect of long-term inhalation anesthesia exposure by performing this surgery on patients in this group. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of sevoflurane and desflurane inhalation anesthetics on clara cell protein in liver transplant donors scheduled for hepatectomy surgery.
