Optimizing Prolonged (6 h) Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Donor Kidneys (PROPER Study)

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Prolonged ex situ normothermic machine perfusion of donor kidneys up to 6 h is feasible, maintaining viability and histological integrity. Key protocol optimizations include fresh red blood cells, albumin supplementation, and urine recirculation—laying the groundwork for assessment and potential pretransplant interventions in future clinical trials ...

Driveline Infections Among Patients Supported With Left Ventricular Assist Devices: A Single Center Sixteen‐Year Longitudinal Profile

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Our study of 1026 LVAD implants revealed HeartWare had lower driveline infection rates than other LVAD types. In addition, severe diabetes was associated with higher risk, while older age and coronary artery disease were linked to a lower risk of driveline infections.

Comparison of Biocompatibility and Efficacy of Regional Citrate Anticoagulation and Unfractionated Heparin During Expanded Hemodialysis With a Medium Cut‐Off Membrane—A Randomized Trial

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In a randomized cross‐over trial, regional citrate anticoagulation provided superior biocompatibility over full‐dose unfractionated heparin during expanded hemodialysis with significantly lower activation of complement, granulocytes, and platelets without affecting dialysis efficiency. ABSTRACT Background Regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) improves

Hemocompatibility and Long‐Term Outcomes in HeartWare Versus HeartMate II Versus HeartMate 3: Multicenter Real‐World Cohort

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Multicenter real‐world cohort (n = 327) comparing LVADs: HeartMate 3 (HM3), HeartMate II (HMII), and HeartWare (HVAD). HM3 showed superior long‐term survival versus legacy devices, driven by fewer hemocompatibility‐related adverse events, especially pump thrombosis and ischemic stroke, while major bleeding was similar across devices.
