Advanced liver disease may impair the elimination, prolong the half life & potentiate the effects of several drugs.
So drugs with their adjusted dosages should be used cautiously
Data suggests that patient with acute hepatitis are at increased risk for hepatic failure and death after elective surgery.
Post op. jaundice may occur as a result of intraop. Hepatobilliary injury, anaesthetic induced hepatotoxicity, severe hepatic hypoperfusion and medications (Miller’s,7ed)
In a patient with acute parenchymal liver disease - main objective is to
Minimize physiological insult to liver and kidney.
Achieved by-
Maintain HBF Maintain O2 supply-demand relationship in liver.
Adequate pulmonary ventilation and CVS function
Maintain renal perfusion Avoid-
Hypotension (adequate fluid balance)
Hypoxia
Hypocarbia/Hypercarbia
Hypothermia/Hyperthermia
Hypoglycaemia/ Hyperglycaemia
.
Various anaesthetic drugs & techniques affect the hepatic function by alteration in HBF(mainly) or directly causing hepatocellular injury.
AND
Hepatic dysfunction also alters the pharmacokinetic
-s of the drug. So altering their dosages , clearance and metabolism.
All volatile anaesthetics decrease total hepatic blood flow.
THBF= PBF + HABF
Techniques of measuring PBF/HABF :-
• Plasma clearance of Indocynine green dye
• TEE
• Doppler
Most profound decrease in hepatic blood flow :-
Halothane
Mechanism of decrease in THBF -
◦ Decrease in MAP.
◦ Decrease in CO
HALOTHANE - more effect on HABF : Hepatic artery
vasoconstriction.
Disrupt compensatory mech.- Hepatic arterial buffer
response.
Also decreases hepatic O22 delivery & hepatic venous
O2 2 saturation.
ISOFLURANE - Increase flow velocity in hepatic sinusoids
Preserve microvascular blood flow
DESFLURANE, SEVOFLURANE
Preserve total hepatic blood flow

Enflurane 2.5- 8.5 - - - Lost Decrease
Desflurane 0.02 - - Lost Decrease
Isoflurane 0.2 – 2 preserved preserved preserved
Sevoflurane 2 - 5 preserved preserved preserved
THIOPENTONE – capacity limited drug. Dose has to
be reduced for induction because of decreased protein
binding & reduction in enzyme activity.
Thiopentone- Higher dose is needed in alcoholic with
compensated liver disease because of CYP-450
enzyme induction by alcohol.
Duration of action of single dose will not be prolonged
as the major determinant of a single dose is
redistribution
KETAMINE-Flow limited drug having high extraction ratio & high hepatic clearance.
Maintains the CO by sympathomimetic action. So maintains the HBF
ETOMIDATE-Highly protein bound drug with high vd & clearance.
Maintains the CO & MAP-so minimal effect on HBF. Metabolism by-hepatic microsomal enzymes and
esterases-so dosages should be decreased in hepatic dysfunction.
Metabolism of PROPOFOL is dependent on Hepatic
blood flow as it is primarily metabolized in liver .
Propofol cause the maximum decrease in HBF among
the induction agents. Thus resulting in prolongation of
action even after single dose.
Propofol in contrast to other iv induction agents has
extrahepatic metabolism.
Slow titrated dose of induction agents with smooth
intubation will have little impact on the HBF.
Liver dysfunction Effect on the drug
Decreased PBF & fraction
of shunt increased
First pass metabolism for the
oral drug decreased (e.g. BZD)
Hypoalbuminemia Increased unbound fraction
(e.g. propofol)
Obstructive jaundice Decreased biliary excretion of drugs (e.g.morphine)
Change in enzyme function Metabolism either can be
increased or decreased
Ascites Increased Vd (e.g. NM Blocking agents)
Succinylcholine– Duration of action rarely gets prolonged
despite reduced pseudocholinesterase level.
Duration of action of Pancuronium and Rocuronium gets
prolonged because of increased Vd and impaired hepatic
metabolism (altered pharmacokinetics).
Duration of action of Vecuronium (<0.15mg/kg) may be
slightly prolonged or unaffected as it is excreted in bile
(30%).
Duration of action of Mivacurium gets prolonged because of
the reduced plasma cholinesterase level.
Atracurium and cis-atracurium – Duration of
action not affected as both the drugs undergo
organ independent elimination – Ester hydrolysis
and Hoffmans degradation.
Duration of action of above drugs are infact
reduced because of increased Vd & increased
binding to globulins.
To prevent residual muscle weakness in the post op.
period because of altered pharmacokinetics, careful
monitoring of the neuromuscular function is needed.
Morphine- Hepatic metabolism Extrahepatic metabolism
Decreased plasma protein binding- increased bioavailability.
Interval of dosages-should be increased to 1.5-2
fold. Spasm of sphincter of Oddi.
Should be used cautiously in pts. with liver disease.
Fentanyl and Sufentanil- Duration of action of single
dose is not altered in compensated liver disease.
Alfentanil- Duration of action is prolonged because of
the increased free fraction of the drug.
Remifentanil- Duration of action is unaffected as it is
metabolised by nonspecific esterase.
Meperidine- 50% decrease in clearance leading to
doubling of half life.
Nitrous Oxide containing anaesthetics does not
cause liver injury in the absence of impaired
hepatic oxygenation.
Nitrous Oxide may exacerbate hepatic damage
in the presence of impaired hepatic oxygenation
through sympathetic stimulant action and
methionine synthase inhibition.

Nature and extent of surgery - Most important determinant of hepatic blood flow & postop. Hepatic dysfunction.
Risk greatest with-◦ Abdominal surgery◦ Billiary surgery◦ Cardiac surgery
Increased risk of morbidity & mortality of any type of surgery in presence of acute parenchymal liver disease.
In case of acute parenchymal liver disease-postpone elective surgery until liver dysfunction is investigated & managed.
In emergency cases- optimize the patient in whatever time available before surgery.
Avoid & minimize physiological insults to the liver. Avoid renal insults. Preserve cardiac output with fluid loading. Maintain- Normovolemia Normocapnia (PaCO2 around 40mmHg) Monitor acid base disturbances & electrolyte
abnormalities. Preservation of urine output@1-2ml/kg/hr Fluids Mannitol Dopamine
Accurate replacement of blood loss - crystalloids/ colloids/packed cells
Maintain normoglycemia- (prone to hypoglycemia).
Maintain normothermia (hypothermia worsens coagulopathy) - warm fluids, humidification, space blankets etc.
Avoid nephrotoxic antibiotics & NSAIDS.
Invasive monitoring may be considered.
ECG (H.R.), B.P, SpO2
ETCO2
CVP Urine Output Core body temperature NM monitoring ABG with S.E. Blood Sugar Blood Loss If needed- Hb, PT, PTTK
Preoxygenation◦ 3-5 min. with 100% O2
Choice of Agents◦ Induction Agents
Thiopentone Etomidate Propofol
◦ Muscle Relaxants Atracurium Vecuronium Succinylcholine
◦ Volatile Anaesthetics Isoflurane Sevoflurane Desflurane
O2 + N2O + Inhalational agent + Muscle relaxant.
Controlled ventilation:-
◦ Avoid large tidal volumes.◦ Resp. rate of 10-12 breaths/min.◦ Add PEEP if necessary.◦ Avoid high airway pressure.
Reversal of NM blockade should be guided by NM monitoring.
Done only when patient completely out of muscle relaxants effects.
Extubate the trachea when patient completely awake.
Reverse with Neostigmine(0.03-0.05mg/kg)and Atropine(0.01mg/kg)
Achieve cardiovascular stability- fluids, dopamine..
Maintain oxygenation◦ Supplement O2 up to 12-16 hrs post op.
Continue Mannitol if used intraop. (till 36 hrs postoperatively)◦ Maintain Urine Output(0.5 ml/kg/hr)
Replace urine losses
◦ Avoid Dyselectrolytemia
Adequate analgesia :- Intravenous agents ( tailored doses) Regional anaesthesia (if coagulation profile is
normal) Epidural Intercostal nerve block
Avoid Hypothermia / Hyperthermia
Replace blood/ blood products.
Proper antibiotics in post op. period
Impaired Consciousness - over sedation.
Impaired Respiration - opioid overdose.
Inadequate reversal.
Chest infection.
Oliguria & renal failure.
Deterioration of hepatic function/ postop. Jaundice.
Coagulation profile should be within normal limits.
If there is marked hypotension (>20% baseline)- Decreased HBF Increased chances of renal failure
Dosages of Lignocaine & Bupivacaine should be
reduced upto 50%.
Epidural anaesthesia has an added advantage of CVS stability.
Key Points- Avoid hypotension. Maintain adequate fluid balance. Maintain urine output ≥ 1ml/kg. Avoid vasopressors (If Warranted Dopamine may be used.)
Patients with acute parenchymal liver injury have increased morbidity & mortality after elective surgery.
Choice of anaesthetic agents & techniques should aim at minimizing physiological insult to liver and kidney.
Dosages of drugs should be altered in accordance with degree of hepatic dysfunction present.
Meticulous post.op monitoring is required with maintenance of oxygenation &circulation.
