Summary

This study compares two approaches to giving fluids during liver transplant surgery: one that limits fluids to reduce blood flow to the gut, and another that gives more fluids to keep the heart pumping well. The goal is to see which method leads to fewer complications after surgery. The study includes 138 adults with end-stage liver disease and will also test whether a larger study is possible.
