    Currently, static cold storage (SCS) of hearts from donations after brainstem death remains the standard clinically. However, machine perfusion (MP) is considered an approach for donor organ management to extend the donor pool and/or increase the utilization rate. This review summarizes and critically assesses the available clinical data on MP in heart transplantation. We searched Medline…

    Normothermic Regional Perfusion (NRP) has shown encouraging clinical results. However, translation from an experimental to routine procedure poses several challenges. Herein we describe a model that led to the implementation of NRP into standard clinical practice in our centre following an iterative process of refinement incorporating training, staffing and operative techniques. Using this…

    Transplantation is the only curative treatment option for end-stage organ disease; however, its use remains limited due to a shortage of suitable organs. Thus, the use of extended criteria donors, where dynamic preservation strategies promise to be key for successful outcomes, particularly limiting ischemic injury following organ retrieval. Given the variety of combinations of different…

    Endogenous production of carbon monoxide (CO) is affected by inflammatory phenomena and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Precise measurement of exhaled endogenous CO (eCO) is possible thanks to a laser spectrometer (ProCeas® from AP2E company). We assessed eCO levels of human lung grafts during the normothermic Ex-Vivo Lung Perfusion (EVLP). ProCeas® was connected in bypass to the ventilation…

    Based on published data, we have carried out a hospital-based health technology assessment of machine perfusion in adult liver transplantation using cold storage as a comparator, and within the perspective of a national health system-based hospital practice and disease-related group reimbursement policy. A systematic literature review on machine perfusion for adult liver transplantation was…

    Organ transplantation is performed worldwide, but policies regarding donor imaging are not uniform. An overview of the policies in different regions is missing. This study aims to investigate the various protocols worldwide on imaging in deceased organ donation. An online survey was created to determine the current policies. Competent authorities were approached to fill out the survey based on…

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4H-nALvGSMQ Welcome Over 110,000 people in America are waiting for an organ. Unfortunately, many may never get the call saying that an organ has become available. On average, 22 people die each day while waiting for a transplant. (Source: OPTN.) When someone donates an organ, it not only shortens the waiting time for the person receiving the organ, but reduces…

    April 25, 2022 – There’s no safe way to get a close-up view of the human heart as it goes about its work: you can’t just pop it out, take a look, then slot it back in. Scientists have tried different ways to get around this fundamental problem: they’ve hooked up cadaver hearts to machines to make them pump again, attached lab-grown heart tissues to springs to watch them expand and contract. Each…
