Pancreas Transplant Alone Using Donation After Cardiac Death Donors Has Similar Outcomes As Donation After Brain Death Donors
*Purpose: While outcomes of pancreas transplants are improving, there is a persistent hesitancy to use pancreas organs procured in the context of donation after cardiac…2019 American Transplant Congress
Finding Opportunities for Increased Donation after Circulatory Death Liver Utilization: Results of an American Society of Transplant Surgeons/Association of Organ Procurement Organizations Survey
*Purpose: Liver allografts from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors remain underutilized in the U.S. Improved utilization requires expanded potential donor identification by organ procurement…2019 American Transplant Congress
Association Of Kdpi And Dgf With Dcd Kidney Transplants Outcomes
David Geffen Sch of Med at UCLA, Los Angeles, CA

Microsteatosis in Livers from Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) Donors is Associated with Inferior Graft and Patient Survival Following Liver Transplantation (LTX)
University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI
*Purpose: The current theory is that severe macrosteatosis (MaS) (>50%) in livers recovered from donation after brain death (DBD) donors leads to increased rates of…2019 American Transplant Congress
Donation after Cardiac Simultaneous Liver-Kidney: An Updated Perspective
*Purpose: Historically, the outcomes from donation after cardiac death (DCD) donors have been shown to be inferior as compared to those of donation after brain…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Utility Of Intraoperative Vascular Anastomotic Inflow Measurements In Donation After Circulatory Death (DCD) Liver Transplantation
Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH
*Purpose: The use of flow probes to measure hepatic inflow at the conclusion of vascular anastomoses in Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) liver transplantation is…2019 American Transplant Congress
Effects of Static Subnormothermic Preservation of Extended Warm Ischemic Porcine Kidneys Assessed by Ex-Vivo Machine Perfusion and Renal Transplant Model
Center for Advanced Biomedical Science and Swine Research, Kagoshima University, Kagoshima, Japan
*Purpose: The donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors has the potential to match the increasing need for transplantable organs, however, DCD kidneys have a higher…2019 American Transplant Congress
Taking a Step toward Standardization: Results of an American Society of Transplant Surgeons/Association of Organ Procurement Organizations Survey of Donation after Circulatory Death Liver Recovery Practices
*Purpose: Donation after circulatory death (DCD) liver transplants (LT) represented only 6.3% of total U.S. LT in 2017, despite DCD comprising 18.3% of the deceased…2019 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Grafts From Donors After Circulatory Death Provide Comparable Outcome To Donors After Brain Death Without Intracorporeal In Situ Cooling
Sapporo City General Hospital, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan
*Purpose: Donation after circulatory death (DCD) had been one and only source of deceased kidney donor in our country. The number of donation after brand…
