Treating the donor

Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2014
Current pressures of organ supply and demand require maximization of potential for organ donation. The donor population is older and has more significant comorbidity than in the past.Optimal management of the donor after brain death (DBD) is essential to ensure that the greatest number of organs can be transplanted per donor.

The Pulmonary Donor

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1990
This article discusses the Pittsburgh experience with the pulmonary donor and provides guidelines for the maintenance and selection of appropriate donor lungs. Criteria for the selection of the pulmonary donor include absence of radiographic abnormality, minimal ventilation-perfusion mismatch, and an absence of identifiable infection.

The Organ Donor

Critical Care Clinics, 1990
Vascularized organ transplantation is now a widely applied therapy for patients with end-stage diseases of the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and pancreas. A critical shortage of donor organs exists in the United States and, as a consequence, prospective transplant recipients die while waiting for a life-saving transplant.

NADH as Donor

EcoSal Plus, 2007
The number of NADH dehydrogenases and their role in energy transduction in Escherchia coli have been under debate for a long time. Now it is evident that E. coli possesses two respiratory NADH dehydrogenases, or NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductases, that have traditionally been called NDH-I and ...

The Use of Neoplastic Donors to Increase the Donor Pool

Transplantation Proceedings, 2012
The aim of the study was to evaluate the experience of the Centre-Sud Transplant Organization (OCST) area using cadaveric donor with neoplastic diseases to evaluate the possibility of transmission to recipients. From January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2010, the neoplastic risk has been reported to be 5.4% (377/4654 referred donors).

Cadaveric donors

Anesthesiology Clinics of North America, 2004
The diagnosis of brain death describes the final catastrophic state of a person for whom, except for ventilators and pharmacology, death would surely have already intervened. Although we think of death as an ending, if the patient becomes an organ donor it is also a beginning.

The donor’s dilemma

Blood, 2014
In this issue of Blood , Pulsipher et al identify key differences in adverse events related to donation for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from a prospective cohort of nearly 9500 unrelated allogeneic donors recruited through the National Marrow Donor Program. 1 Although the rates of life-threatening complications were very low overall (

Donors of HNO

Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2005
Recent comparisons of the pharmacological effects of nitric oxide (NO) and nitroxyl (HNO) donors have demonstrated that the responses to these redox-related nitrogen oxides are nearly universally dissimilar. These analyses have suggested the existence of mutually exclusive signaling pathways as a result of discrete chemical interactions of HNO and NO ...
