ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Normothermic ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has been used successfully to evaluate and recondition marginal donor lungs; however, multiple barriers continue to prevent its widespread adoption. We

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Ischemia-reperfusion associated with prolonged warm ischemia during donation after circulatory death (DCD) induces acute lung injury. The objective of this study was to combine ex vivo

ABSTRACT
Uncontrolled donation after circulatory death (uDCD) refers to donation from persons who die following an unexpected and unsuccessfully resuscitated cardiac arrest. Despite the large potential for uDCD, programs of this kind only exist
