Donor Macrophage Depletion Improves Kidney Graft Function Despite Long Cold Ischemia
1Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, 2Medicine, Duke University, Durham, NC
*Purpose: Prolonged cold ischemia is a known risk factor for delayed graft function and poorer outcomes after kidney transplantation. Overcoming this obstacle is key to…2022 American Transplant Congress
Organ Care System Use in Liver Transplantation Shifts Preservation-Reperfusion Injury in Time and Space
Department of Transplant Pathology, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Liver allograft ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) causes early allograft dysfunction (EAD). The TransMedics Organ Care System (OCS) PROTECT trial for liver transplantation (NCT02522871) revealed that…2022 American Transplant Congress
Duration of Brain Death Does Not Impact Short Term Outcomes in Kidney Transplantation
*Purpose: In animal models, brain death has been shown to induce renal injury, primarily due to ischemia, inflammation, and alterations in hemodynamics. However, donor management…2022 American Transplant Congress
Vitrification of Pancreatic Islets and Transplantation
1University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, 2Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN
*Purpose: A limitation to potential cure for diabetes through islet transplantation is insufficient islet equivalence (IEQ) from a single donor to achieve insulin independence in…2022 American Transplant Congress
Cold Pulsatile Perfusion of Donor Kidneys Varies Significantly by Procuring Organ Procurement Organization Indicating Both Over and Underutilization of This Preservation Method
Kidney Transplant, Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital, Pensacola, FL
*Purpose: To assess the usage and variability cold pulsatile perfusion preservation in the United States based on procuring organ procurement organization (OPO).*Methods: All donors procured…2022 American Transplant Congress
Deceased Donor Organ Flush with Similar Volumes of HTK and UW at a Single U.S. Organ Procurement Organization: Adult and Pediatric Data
*Purpose: Histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) and University of Wisconsin (UW) solutions are the two primary solid-organ preservation solutions used in the United States (>95%), but flush volumes…2022 American Transplant Congress
Cold Pulsatile Perfusion of Deceased Donor Kidneys Substantially Improves Kidney Utilization of Donors After Cardiac Death and Brain Dead Donors with KDPI Greater Than 60%
Kidney Transplant, Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital, Pensacola, FL
*Purpose: To determine trends in usage of cold pulsatile kidney perfusion and its impact on organ utilization in the United States using the SRTR database.*Methods:…2021 American Transplant Congress
Recovery After Extended Static Cold Storage Preservation Using Subnormothermic Machine Perfusion in VCA
*Purpose: Vascularized composite allografts (VCA) are more sensitive to cold ischemia than solid organ transplants due to the remaining metabolism in skeletal muscle cells. In…2021 American Transplant Congress
Segmental Susceptibility of Intestinal Stem Cells to Cold Storage Preservation Injury in a Porcine Model
1North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, 2Duke University, Durham, NC
*Purpose: Cold storage (CS) is the current gold standard preservation method for small bowel (SB) prior to transplantation. However, CS can cause epithelial detachment, sloughing,…2021 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Machine Perfusion of the Heart on Abdominal Organ Procurement from Donation After Cardiac Death Donors
*Purpose: Superior preservation with normothermic machine perfusion devices has been demonstrated in thoracic and abdominal allografts, especially DCD donation, where clinical utilization of DCD hearts…
