The multiple logistic regression analysis of predictive factors for ICU length of stay of more than 10 days identified use of marginal grafts (P = 0.022), development or renal failure of more than RIFLE class 2 (P = 0.006), transfusion of more than 10 units of FFP (P = 0.034), respiratory failure (P = 0.009), MELD score corrected above 23 (P = 0.007), transfusion of more than 7 units of RBC (P = 0.032) and sepsis (P = 0.046) as independent risk factors. Age, gender, preoperative incidence of diabetes mellitus, directly pretransplantation ICU admission (transplanta-tion from the ICU), postoperative bilirubin serum peak level were no predictors of length of stay in the ICU (Table 5 ).
