Abstract
Given the complexity and broad scope of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) in adults, it has been hard to visualize the liver transplant process that includes complications. This study presents the complete medical knowledge on adult liver transplant recipients, including anticipated complications, and encompasses the entire treatment process, using the descriptive method of the Patient Condition Adaptive Path System (PCAPS) to visualize the treatment process in LDLT recipients, and proposes a method for visualizing complex medical procedures conducted concurrently.
It turned out that the LDLT knowledge visualized from the data on 80 cases of LDLT covered the status of 97.5% of the patients. This knowledge included the treatment in 10 of 12 complications. These results suggest that the LDLT knowledge can be applied to medical treatment, and clinical data can be accumulated effectively.
