The Impact of Reduction of Warm Ischemia on DCD Kidney Transplantation Outcomes
*Purpose: Warm ischemic time (WIT) during donation after cardiac death (DCD) kidney transplantation has significant effects on post-operative outcomes, such as graft survival, function, and…2019 American Transplant Congress
Analysis of Lactic Acid Response in Renal Transplant Patients
*Purpose: Lactic acid (LA) serves as an important biomarker in the evaluation of ischemia, sepsis, metabolic acidosis, and trauma. During renal transplantation (RT), there is…2019 American Transplant Congress
Novel Cooling Device for Kidney Transplant Surgery
*Purpose: Metabolic activity in cooled kidneys is minimal at 5ºC and resumes above 15ºC, a temperature reached after only 15 min of warm ischemia time…2019 American Transplant Congress
Robotic-Assisted versus Open Techniques for Living Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Comparison Using Propensity Score Analysis
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, MI
*Purpose: Following rapid advancements in minimally invasive urology, living donor robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) has developed into a feasible alternative to open kidney transplantation (OKT).…2019 American Transplant Congress
Utilization of DCD Donors >50 Years Old for Liver Transplantation
Arizona Transplant Associates, PC, Phoenix, AZ
*Purpose: End stage liver disease is becoming more prevalent in the United States with approximately 4.9 million adults carrying the diagnosis. It is estimated that…2019 American Transplant Congress
Histone Deacetylase-2 Knockout in Renal Tubular Cells is Protective in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
*Purpose: Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major source of morbidity in renal transplantation and is without targeted therapy. In renal transplantation, IRI contributes to poorer…2019 American Transplant Congress
Incidence of Autoresuscitation in Donation after Cardiac Death Donors
*Purpose: Donation after cardiac death (DCD) donors are subject to an observation period after asystole to monitor for cardiopulmonary autoresuscitation (AR). Periods vary between and…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
Cryopreserved Human Iliac Arteries Allografts: Different Thawing Rates Affect on Their Structural Changes and Mechanical Properties
*Purpose: The rate of thawing of cryopreserved human iliac arteries allografts (CHIAA) directly affects the severeness of structural changes that occur during this process. This…2018 American Transplant Congress
Extra-Renal Effects of Estrogen Receptor-Alpha Mediate Protection from Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Introduction: Females exhibit protection from renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) compared to males in animal models and in human kidneys transplants. Previous experiments have shown that…
