Application Value of Novel Coagulation Markers in Predicting Postoperarative Complications in the Early Stage After Liver Transplantation

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), plasmin-α 2-plasmininhibitor complex (PIC), soluble thrombomodulin (sTM), and tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex (tPAIC) and postoperative complications in the early stage after liver transplantation (LT). MethodsWe analyzed the perioperative clinical data, including plasma TAT, PIC, sTM, and tPAIC, of 130 post-LT patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), West China Hospital, Sichuan University between December 2021 and November 2022. Patients were divided into two groups, a complication group and a non-complication group, according to whether they experienced complications of Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade Ⅲb and above within 30 days after the surgery. Univariate analysis and binary multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine the risk factors for complications within 30 days post-LT. ResultsThe incidence of complications of CD grade Ⅲb and above within 30 days post-LT was 33.1% (43/130). P
