ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Ex situ heart perfusion (ESHP) limits ischemic periods and enables continuous monitoring of donated hearts; however, a validated assessment method to predict cardiac performance has yet to be established. We compare biventricular

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Successful preclinical transplantations of porcine hearts into baboon recipients are required before commencing clinical trials. Despite years of research, over half of the orthotopic cardiac xenografts were lost

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Many donor organs contain significant leukocyte reservoirs which upon transplantation activate recipient leukocytes to initiate acute rejection. We aimed to assess whether non-ischemic heart preservation via ex vivo

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Shenfu (SF) injection on donor heart preservation.

METHODS: Twelve pigs were randomly divided into SF group (n=6) and control group (n=6). After eight hours

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Normothermic ex situ liver perfusion (NEsLP) reduces reperfusion injury of donation after circulatory death (DCD) grafts and optimizes graft function. The goal of our study was to elucidate how NEsLP impacts

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: We describe our technique of ex vivo organ perfusion and procurement in donation after deceased brain death (DBD) donors.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: This technique comprises warm

ABSTRACT

Demand for heart transplants far exceeds supply of donated organs. This is attributed to the high percentage of donor hearts that are discarded and to the narrow six-hour time

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to match clinical outcomes of heart transplantation (HTx) against histopathologic and ultrastructural characteristics of marginal grafts preserved by cold

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Few studies directly compare outcomes between the most commonly used preservation solutions in pediatric heart transplantation in a large cohort of recipients. The purpose of this study

ABSTRACT

Xenotransplantation using pig organs has achieved survival times up to 195 days in pig orthotopic heart transplantation into baboons. Here we demonstrate that in addition to an improved immunosuppressive regimen, non-ischaemic
