Monitoring Mitochondrial Function With High‐Resolution Respirometry During Ex‐Situ Heart Perfusion

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Normothermic ESHP preserves mitochondrial respiratory function over 6 h in a porcine model (n = 6): OXPHOS capacities across NADH‐, fatty‐acid‐, and succinate‐linked pathways remain stable, with reduced cytochrome‐c control efficiency indicating improved outer‐membrane integrity. HRR provides a rapid, actionable readout for organ assessment.

Efficacy of Antimicrobial Silver‐Plated Dressings Compared to Usual Care in Preventing Left Ventricular Assist Device Driveline Infections

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Integrating silver‐plated wound dressings into DLES care presents a safe and effective strategy for DLI prevention. Key findings include a 100% infection‐free rate in the Silverlon group, no NPWT and hospital readmission in the Silverlon group, and no severe DESTINE stages (3, 4) in the Silverlon group.

SURGELLA: A Scoping Review of Impella‐Assisted Hemodynamic Support in High‐Risk Non‐Cardiac Surgery

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In selected patients with severe LV dysfunction, Impella‐supported non‐cardiac surgery may provide a temporary hemodynamic bridge to otherwise prohibitive procedures. Published evidence remains limited to a small number of highly selected cases, supporting technical feasibility rather than comparative benefit or generalizable safety.

Experimental Extracorporeal Circulation System: A Pilot Study in Rats

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A miniature extracorporeal circulation (ECC) system was developed for reproducible rodent studies. This system incorporates an integrated heat exchanger and a silicone membrane oxygenator within a double‐lumen circuit, resulting in an ultralow priming volume of < 1.5 mL.

Prevention and Management of Driveline Infections in Ventricular Assist Device Patients: The DESTINE 2.0 Staging Proposal and Expert Recommendations

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
DESTINE 2.0 decision flowchart: stage‐based assessment and management of driveline exit‐site disorders. The flowchart provides a simplified decision‐support tool for the stage‐based evaluation and management of driveline exit‐site disorders in LVAD patients, intended as a practical complement to the staging pyramid (Figre 2) and the detailed staging ...
