About
How does COVID-19 effect cardiac function? Our first experiences from the point of view of anesthesiologists on the front line.
This session will be presented by a cardiac special interest group explaining the management of liver transplant recipients with significant cardiac problems. Cardiac surgery at the time of liver transplantation discussed from the point of view of cardiac and transplant surgeons.
Atrial fibrillation is a frequently underestimated risk in liver transplant recipients. We are going to investigate strategies for patient selection and perioperative management.
