Effectiveness Of The Vittal Viability Criteria During Ex Situ Normothermic Machine Perfusion To Discriminate Hepatobiliary Organ Injury And Investigation Of Biochemical Markers For Post-transplant Complications
Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom
*Purpose: The VITTAL (viability testing and transplantation of marginal livers) clinical trial demonstrated that ex situ end-ischaemic normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) allows functional assessment and…2019 American Transplant Congress
Metabolic Profiling of Steatotic Human Livers during Ex-Vivo Normothermic Machine Perfusion
*Purpose: Nearly 40-60% of discarded livers are due to steatosis because of poor recovery from ischemia-reperfusion injury and compromised post-transplant function. We evaluated steatotic (ST)…2019 American Transplant Congress
Pharmacological Enhancement of Bile Duct Preservation and Function during Ex-Situ Normothermic Machine Perfusion
Institute of Immunology and Immunotherapy, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom
*Purpose: Whilst ex-situ normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of the liver limits the ischaemic injury to the organ, benefits for biliary complications post-transplantation are not yet…2019 American Transplant Congress
Combined Thoracic-Liver Transplants Using Normothermic Machine Perfusion for Liver Preservation: A Case Series
Henry Ford Transplant Institute, Detroit, MI
*Purpose: There is minimal data describing combined thoracic-liver transplants (tx) with normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) used for liver preservation as the thoracic tx is done.…2018 American Transplant Congress
A Cost Analysis on Normothermic Machine Perfusion at a Single Center
General Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH.
INTRODUCTION: Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) for liver transplantation is a novel and promising technique.One of the concerns related to its usage is the high cost.The…2018 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Ex Vivo Liver Perfusion Prior to Liver Transplantation Can Prevent Platelet Aggregation and Platelet Induced Sinusoidal Cell Injury
Background. Normothermic ex vivo liver perfusion (NEVLP) is a novel method for graft-preservation applied alternatively to static cold storage (SCS). We examined the impact of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Improving DCD Livers Graft Function Using CD47 Blockade in the Setting of Normothermic Liver Perfusion
Background: Towards the goal of utilizing more livers for transplantation, transplant centers are looking to increase the use of organs from marginal donors. Livers from…2018 American Transplant Congress
The First Series of Ischemia-Free Liver Transplantation in Human
BACKGROUND&AIMS: Ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI) is known as an inevitable event leading to early and late graft failure. We have performed the first case…2018 American Transplant Congress
One-Pump versus Two-Pump Normothermic Ex Vivo Perfusion Machines in Discarded Human Livers
Transplant Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland.
Introduction:Physiologic flows and pressures need to be provided by the ex vivo liver perfusion device. We hypothesized that the 1-pump designed machines would provide the…2018 American Transplant Congress
Resuscitation and Viability Testing of Initially Declined Livers Using Sequential Hypo- and Normothermic Machine Perfusion with an Acellular Fluid
While end-ischemic dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) resuscitates mitochondria and reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury, normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) allows for ex-situ functional testing of donor…
