Waiting Time Prioritisation for Public and Private Providers: Evidence From Hip Replacement Surgery
ABSTRACT Waiting times for planned health care treatments have been increasing in England and other OECD countries. One policy to reduce the impact of waiting times on patients' health is for doctors to prioritise patients according to their health status.

ABSTRACT Prosthetic heart valve development consists of several branching, innovative strategies to mediate the complex native environment that wears down valve durability. Anti‐calcification treatments are being applied to pericardial tissue, durable polymers are being developed that mitigate oxidative degradation and stress cracking, and heart valve ...

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 ...
