The Anti‐Inflammatory Effect of Normothermic Machine Perfused Human Kidneys on Monocyte‐Derived Dendritic Cells

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
The immunogenicity of donor kidneys on NMP can be studied using monocyte‐derived dendritic cells. Incubation with perfusate showed an anti‐inflammatory dendritic cell phenotype and function that suggests the release of an anti‐inflammatory factor or factors during NMP. ABSTRACT Background The immunomodulatory activity of normothermic machine perfusion (

Heart Donation After Controlled Circulatory Death in Noncardiac Surgery Hospitals With a Mobile Heart Team: A Case Series From an Italian Regional Program and Integrated Review of the Literature

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this series of 19 DCD donors using TA‐NRP, 89.5% of hearts were successfully transplanted with no PGD, no postoperative ECMO, and no 30‐day mortality, demonstrating the feasibility and safety of this approach. ABSTRACT Controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) with thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA‐NRP) has emerged ...

A fully automated normothermic machine perfusion system for kidney grafts supporting physiological motivated flow profiles

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023
Research showed that the normothermic machine perfusion of kidneys can enable prolonged storage and improve conditions compared to traditional cold storage. For research in this area, there is a demand for a long-term in vitro perfusion setup.

Death Determination, the Dying Process and the Dead Donor Rule: A Critical Analysis of the Italian 20‐Minute No‐Touch Period in Controlled Donation After Circulatory Determination of Death

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Italy, controlled Donation after Circulatory Determination of Death (cDCDD) requires a 20‐min no‐touch period documented by continuous electrocardiographic monitoring. Since Italian law adopts a single brain‐based definition of death, this procedure serves as an indirect determination of the irreversible cessation of all brain functions ...

Equine vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis due to refractory Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae infection

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was the causative agent of vegetative endocarditis and vertebral osteomyelitis in a 24‐year‐old Irish draught gelding that presented with prolonged history of intermittent pyrexia and tachycardia. Clinical investigations revealed persistently reduced neck mobility, tachydysrhythmia and episodic pyrexia up to 41°C ...

Ex-vivo normothermic liver perfusion: an update.

open access: yes, 2010
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: There is increasing disparity between the supply of acceptable donor organs and the number of potential transplant recipients. The shortage of organs for transplantation demands optimal utilization of a wider spectrum of donor organs ...
