Abstract
This study investigated the safe indocyanine green retention rate at the 15-minute (ICG-R15) threshold for hepatectomy and the effect of nutritional management on ICG-R15 and posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 70 hepatectomy patients with chronic liver disease, divided into routine care and nutrition intervention groups. ICG-R15 was measured pre- and postoperatively, along with PHLF occurrence and other health metrics. Seventy patients with chronic liver disease were divided into two groups: one received routine care, while the other followed a nutrition plan based on Omaha theory. The intervention group showed a significantly lower incidence of PHLF (15.8% vs 41.2%, p = 0.009) and clinically relevant PHLF (5.3% vs 19.6%, p = 0.031), along with shorter hospital stays (11.3 ± 6.4 days vs 21.5 ± 15.5 days, p = 0.012) and fewer complications (26.3% vs 47.1%, p = 0.020). The optimal ICG-R15 threshold for predicting PHLF was 4.5%, with 8.5% being critical. ICG-R15 is a reliable predictor of PHLF, with 4.5% being safe and 8.5% critical. Nutritional management based on Omaha theory improves outcomes and quality of life. Further validation is needed.
