An observational study of Donor Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion in UK lung transplantation: DEVELOP-UK [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Many patients awaiting lung transplantation die before a donor organ becomes available. Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) allows initially unusable donor lungs to be assessed and reconditioned for clinical use.
