Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to determine if lung ultrasound score has a strong predictive value for post operative pulmonary complications in living liver transplant recipient
Detailed Description:
Back ground :Traditional diagnostic tools such as auscultation or chest x-ray have inferior diagnostic accuracy compared to the gold standard (chest computed tomography), Lung ultrasound is becoming popular in intensive and perioperative care and there is a growing interest to evaluate its role in the detection of postoperative pulmonary pathologies.
METHODOLOGY Type of Study: observational prospective study
* Study Setting: After obtaining approval from the Research Ethical Committee of Ain Shams University, this study will be conducted in specialized Ain Shams University Hospitals.
* Study Population : living liver transplant recipient patients post operative in intensive care unit ( 25 patients ), all patients included in this study will be subjected to lung ultrasound score at the pre mentioned times (0,12,24) by most senior expert staff then follow up of patients in Intensive care unit,will reveal that patients will be divided into two groups according to occurance of lung complications to Pulmonary complications positive ( group that developed pulmonary complications ) and pulmonary complications negative (group that didn't develop pulmonary complications ) then sensitivity, specificity and predictive value of lung ultrasound score will be determined .
