Liver transplantation (LT) is the best therapeutic option for end-stage liver disease (ESLD). Non-selective beta-blocker medications such as propranolol act directly on the cardiovascular system (CVS) and are often used in the prevention of gastrointestinal bleeding resulting from HP. The effects of propranolol on CVS of cirrhotic patients during LT are not known.
