Defatting of donor transplant livers during normothermic perfusion and modulating extended-criteria donor graft tolerance to ischaemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]

open access: yes
The limited availability of suitable donor livers remains a critical challenge in liver transplantation, necessitating the use of extended criteria donor (ECD) livers, including those from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors and those ...

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 (

No Kidney Left Behind: Rescuing Unused Donor Kidneys for Transplant at the First Centralized Assessment and Repair Center

open access: yesTransplant International
Rescue of non-used kidneys may be facilitated using sub-normothermic acellular machine perfusion (SNAP), which can prolong safe preservation times and provide additional viability assessment.

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 ...

Real-time monitoring of mitochondrial oxygenation during machine perfusion using resonance Raman spectroscopy predicts organ function

open access: yesScientific Reports
Organ transplantation is a life-saving procedure affecting over 100,000 people on the transplant waitlist. Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major challenge in the field as it can cause post-transplantation complications and limit the use of organs ...

Surgical technique of donation after circulatory death heart procurement using direct procurement and hypothermic oxygenated perfusion preservation

open access: yesJHLT Open
Introduction: Donation after circulatory death (DCD) has re-emerged as a means of expanding the donor heart pool. Current clinical practice relies mainly on direct procurement followed by normothermic machine perfusion or on thoraco-abdominal ...

An adaptable research platform for ex vivo normothermic machine perfusion of the liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
PURPOSE: This paper presents an assessment of a low-cost organ perfusion machine designed for use in research settings. The machine is modular and versatile in nature, built on a robotic operating system (ROS2) pipeline allowing for the addition of ...
