ABSTRACT
In recent years, medical advances make lung transplantation become a standard treatment for terminal lung diseases (such as emphysema, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary arterial hypertension) that cannot be cured

ABSTRACT
In donation after circulatory death (DCD), cardiac grafts are subjected to warm ischemia in situ, prior to a brief period of cold, static storage (CSS) at procurement,

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

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
As progressive organ shortage in cardiac transplantation demands extension of donor criteria, effort is needed to optimize graft survival. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, generated during organ

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
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
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
