Xenogeneic, extracorporeal liver perfusion in primates improves the ratio of branched-chain amino acids to aromatic amino acids (Fischer's ratio) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In fulminant hepatic failure (FHF), the development of hepatic encephalopathy is associated with grossly abnormal concentrations of plasma amino acids (PAA).

Developing bioethical and regulatory frameworks for research in thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion

open access: yesJME Practical Bioethics
Heart transplantation remains the gold standard of treatment for end-stage cardiovascular disease, but there is a persistent mismatch between the supply of donor hearts and recipient demand.

Overcoming Lung Challenges in TA-NRP Assisted Heart Recovery in Donation After the Circulatory Determination of Death

open access: yesTransplant International
Thoraco-abdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA-NRP), utilizing Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) devices, has emerged as an effective strategy for heart recovery in donors declared dead by circulatory criteria (DCDD).

Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP) Inhibits Proinflammatory Responses in the Liver and Promotes Regeneration

open access: yes, 2019
Liver transplantation (LT) is a successful treatment for patients with liver failure. However, organ shortage results in over 11% of patients losing their chance of a transplant attributed to liver decompensation (LD) and death.

Graft survival and delayed graft function with normothermic regional perfusion and rapid recovery after circulatory death in kidney transplantation: a propensity score matching study

open access: yes, 2023
BACKGROUND: A shortage of kidney grafts has led to the implementation of various strategies, including donations after circulatory death. The in situ normothermic regional perfusion technique has been introduced to improve graft quality by reducing warm ...

Transplantation of older DCD livers in the machine perfusion era: a U.S. cohort study

open access: yesTransplant International
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) livers increasingly use machine perfusion (MP). This study evaluates MP’s impact on older DCD livers based on data from the United Network for Data Sharing, covering all first adult DCD liver transplants (2016–2025).

Letter to the editor: normothermic regional perfusion - a case worth defending

open access: yes
We read with interest the editorial by Rubin. We find his position about normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) in donation after cardiac death (DCD) to be problematic.

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 ...

Clinical Utility and Evolution of Donor Serum Lactate During Normothermic Regional Perfusion in Uncontrolled Donation After Circulatory Death [PDF]

open access: yes
Kidney transplantation from uncontrolled donor after circulatory death (uDCD) showed a higher incidence of delayed graft function and primary failure. The aim of this study was to study basal and kinetic evolution of lactate values in uDCD preserved on ...
