Artificial Intelligence May Detect Donor Liver Steatosis and Predict Early Post-Transplantation Graft Failure
Stanford University, Stanford, CA
*Purpose: To compare the accuracy of donor liver biopsy slides scored by manual histopathologic review versus a computer vision artificial intelligence (CVAI) platform to predict…2018 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of DCD Renal Transplantation from Donors with Acute Kidney Injury
Northwell Health, Manhasset, NY.
BackgroundDeceased donor kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) are a viable source of organs, yet are frequently discarded. Outcomes of deceased donor renal transplantation (DDRT)…2018 American Transplant Congress
Temporal Trends, Predictive Factors, and Regional Differences in Discard of Increased-Risk Kidneys
Surgery, Maine Medical Center, Portland, ME.
Purpose: Public Health Service (PHS) criteria designate certain deceased donors (DD) as entailing increased risk (IR) for disease transmission, and these constitute an expanding proportion…2018 American Transplant Congress
Short-Term Outcome Prediction Model in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients
1OSU, Columbus; 2UVA, Charlottesville; 3Montefiore, New York; 4NWU, Chicago.
Background: Lack of accurate outcome prediction models may be a reason for the increase in organ discard rate that further burdens the growing kidney transplant…2018 American Transplant Congress
Factors Predicting Viability Achievement on Discarded Donor Livers Submitted to Extra-Corporeal Machine Perfusion
Background: Ex-vivo machine perfusion of livers (MP) may offer superior preservation for marginal donor organs. During normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is possible to assess liver…2018 American Transplant Congress
Elevated Donor Terminal Creatinine Does Not Appear to Be Associated with Worse Outcomes in Kidney Transplantation
There is justified reluctance to use kidneys from donors with significantly elevated creatinine as they may have severe, irreversible injury. Recently, thanks, in part to…2018 American Transplant Congress
Influence of Liver Allograft Steatosis on Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury
1Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ; 2Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
With the ongoing organ shortage, there has been an increased interest in using moderately steatotic liver allografts. The impact of such allografts on recipients' post-liver…2018 American Transplant Congress
Extended Criteria Donors Have Higher Expression of Inflammatory Genes Than Standard Donors
Background.Changes to an organ occur at the time of brain death where a series of inflammatory modify occur within the organ. Because it is not…2018 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Transplantation in Older Recipients: Preemptive High KDPI Kidney vs. Lower KDPI Kidney after Varying Dialysis Vintage
Nephrology and Hypertension, Allegheny General Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA.
Dialysis vintage is an independent predictor of adverse long-term kidney transplant outcomes. Transplantation of "marginal" kidneys also results in inferior outcomes. We sought to analyze…2018 American Transplant Congress
Viability Outcomes for Donor Livers Discarded Due to Steatosis Following Extra-Corporeal Machine Perfusion of the Liver
Background: Steatosis is the main reason for discarding donor livers worldwide. Ex-vivo machine perfusion offers superior preservation for marginal organs and permits viability testing during…
