Using Scheduled Commercial Flights for Transport of Liver for Transplant.
Transport of liver procured from a brain dead donor (BDD) to the receiving hospital by chartered private flight (PF) is a costly endeavour. Also the…2017 American Transplant Congress
Combined Perfusion of Liver and Kidney Enhances the Protective Effects of Normothermic Perfusion on Donation After Cardiac Death Porcine Livers.
The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China
Aims It has been showed that combined liver-kidney normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is able to better maintain the circuit's biochemical milieu. Nevertheless, whether the combined…2017 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Ex-Vivo Kidney Perfusion Improves Function of Extreme Marginal Renal Grafts Subjected to Prolonged Ischemia.
Background: Normothermic ex-vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) is an emerging technique for renal graft preservation. We investigated whether NEVKP could promote improved marginal graft function compared…2017 American Transplant Congress
Proteins in Preservation Fluid Predict Delayed Graft Function of Kidneys from Donors After Circulatory Death.
Background and objectivesKidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage kidney disease, and donor kidney shortage urges proper donor-recipient matching. Zero-hour biopsies provide predictive value…2017 American Transplant Congress
Split Liver Ex-situ Oxygenated Machine Perfusion: A Novel Approach to Organ Preservation and Treatment.
Ex-situ machine perfusion (MP) is a promising method to improve organ viability prior to transplantation and is being used in various clinical trials worldwide. However,…2016 American Transplant Congress
Cost-Effectiveness of Machine Perfusion Use After Long Cold Ischemic Time in a Kidney Transplantation Program.
Renal Transplantation Unit, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
In Brazil the incidence of DGF is very high (60-70%) mainly due to an inadequate care of the donors and long cold ischemia time. This…2016 American Transplant Congress
Can OPTN/UNOS Policies Be Effectively Transferred to Another Country's Healthcare System? Russian Case.
US Organ Procurement System known as one of the most advanced systems all over the World. Start of new transplant program in other country always…2016 American Transplant Congress
Ex Situ Perfusion of a Human Limb for 24 Hours.
Background: Vascularized composite tissue (limb) allografts are procured and cold stored (4[deg]C) until surgery. This process is time limited as the tissue has to be…2016 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Ex-Vivo Perfusion of the Intestine: The Introduction of an Innovative Physiologic Model with Novel Biomarkers.
General Surgery, Transplant Center, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH.
Purpose: Ischemia reperfusion injury is a major risk factor for short and long-term functional survival after intestinal transplantation. Normothermic machine perfusion is an emerging biotechnology…2016 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Machine Perfusion on Long-Term Kidney Transplant Outcomes.
1MUHC, Montreal, Canada; 2JHU, Baltimore.
Machine perfusion (MP) has been shown to decrease DGF rates in kidney transplant (KT) recipients when compared with static cold storage (CS). However, there is…
