Core Tip	The aim of this study was to assess the value of the mean systemic-to-pulmonary artery pressure (MAP/mPAP) ratio for predicting outcomes following orthotopic liver transplant. The intraoperative pattern of this ratio has not been previously described. Performing a retrospective analysis we identified 2 different MAP/mPAP patterns: Group 1 (MAP/mPAP ratio increase during anhepatic period with postreperfusion recovery, <i>n</i> = 66); and Group 2 (MAP/mPAP ratio with no change during anhepatic period or decreased without recovery, <i>n</i> = 25). The main finding was that the lack of increased MAP/mPAP ratio in the anhepatic period was associated with longer intubation times, and prolonged hospitalization time.
