Liver Transplant Team

For a liver transplant workup, multiple procedural steps and referrals are necessary. Key diagnostics include 2D echocardiography, spirometry, MIBI scans, chest X-rays, and electrocardiograms.

Liver Transplant Team

D2 blds ( will need at least 25ml of bld ) : glucose, HbA1C, TSH/T4/T3, Ca/P/Mg, lipids, iPTH, GXM, ABG, Tb T spot

D1 blds : plain - 2 purple top - 2 blue top - 2 lactate - 1 NH3 - 1 vit D - 1 viro - 2 immuno - 2

D1

D2

D3
D4

D5

- await anaesthesia input

- grand rounds at 8am (ensure pt is in bed) - KIV refer anaesthesia ( check with them ) - KIV scopes if any - email CVM

- bone scan + BMD - OT chit if for scopes - consent for scopes - trace BL changes
- fasting blds - refer dental 8am if not done on D1 - refer PT, dietitian, DNE, MSW - dental clinic morning - followed by spirometry - refer ID, Endo, Psy - 2DE noon

- admit - blds by SN ( easier to do when setting iv plug ) - order 2DE, spiro, BMD, bone scan - KIV refer dental if before 5pm

= important tips

TC = transplant coordinator SN = staff nurse MO = medical officer
