Postoperative Heme Oxygenase Induction and Carbon Monoxide Production as a Novel Method to Assess Hepatic Regeneration and Predict Hepatic Related Morbidity After Partial Hepatectomy
The study will monitor carbon monoxide production in patients undergoing liver resection. Carbon monoxide will be checked from arterial blood gas obtained routinely as a part of the postoperative care as well as from the exhaled…
