Gas treatment tested to shield transplanted livers from damage
NCT ID NCT01172691
Summary
This study tested whether giving patients inhaled nitric oxide gas during a liver transplant could reduce injury to the new organ. It focused on transplants using 'marginal' or higher-risk donor livers. Researchers compared 23 patients who received the gas to those who did not, looking for signs of better liver function and recovery after surgery.
