Abstract
Managing nutrition status is challenging among Liver transplant patients. Symptoms of liver failure like ascites and low albumin levels represent demo in nutrition status assessment. Despite this, malnutrition is prevalent in more than 80% of pre-LT patients. Malnutrition has been associated with poor surgical outcomes; therefore, the need for aggressive nutrition therapy before and after the liver transplant is crucial. Hence, this review aims to accentuate the need for nutrition interventions to devise a nutrition therapy plan in all the phases of Liver transplant.
