Abstract
Plasma ionized calcium and citrate concentrations were measured in 11 patients undergoing liver transplantation. During the anhepatic phase of the procedure, ionized calcium concentrations fell to as low as 40% of normal in spite of calcium supplementation. Simultaneously, citrate concentrations rose to between 20 and 100 times preoperative levels. In two patients low plasma ionized calcium concentrations were associated with hypotension that responded to calcium infusion.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
