Immediate postoperative extubation after liver transplantation at our centre: A report of two cases.
Liver transplantation is a dynamic field undergoing continuous changes in management. Prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation has been a norm but now there is a trend towards early extubation. We developed a protocol for early extubation based on bispectral index monitoring. This protocol was applied in two cases with satisfactory outcome.
