Association of reduced extracellular brain ammonia, lactate, and intracranial pressure in pigs with acute liver failure
(2007-12)
We previously demonstrated in pigs with acute liver failure (ALF) that albumin dialysis using the molecular adsorbents recirculating system (MARS) attenuated a rise in intracranial pressure (ICP). This was independent of ...
Effect of albumin dialysis on intracranial pressure increase in pigs with acute liver failure: a randomized study
(2006-01)
BACKGROUND: Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) worsens the outcome of acute liver failure (ALF). This study investigates the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and evaluates the therapeutic effect of albumin ...
Systemic and regional hemodynamics in pigs with acute liver failure and the effect of albumin dialysis
(2006)
OBJECTIVE: Acute liver failure (ALF) is haemodynamically characterized by a hyperdynamic circulation. The aims of this study were to investigate the systemic and regional haemodynamics in ALF, to measure changes in nitric ...
