Normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) demonstrated superior results compared to
hypothermic storage in donation after circulatory death (DCD) kidney transplantation. It is …

Hypothermic preservation is known to cause renal graft injury, especially in donation after
circulatory death (DCD) kidney transplantation. We investigated the impact of cold storage …

Background. Better preservation strategies for the storage of donation after circulatory death
grafts are essential to improve graft function and to increase the kidney donor pool. We …

Background Cold storage is poorly tolerated by kidney grafts retrieved after donation after
circulatory death. It has been determined that normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion …

Background Hypothermic kidney storage causes preservation injury and is poorly tolerated
by renal grafts. We investigated whether static cold storage (SCS) can be safely replaced …

Background Donation after circulatory death (DCD) is current clinical practice to increase the
donor pool. Deleterious effects on renal graft function are described for hypothermic …

Background. The increased usage of marginal grafts has triggered interest in perfused
kidney preservation to minimize graft injury. We used a donation after circulatory death …

Kidney transplantation has become a well-established treatment option for patients with end-
stage renal failure. The persisting organ shortage remains a serious problem. Therefore, the …

Background Donation after circulatory death (DCD) kidney transplants inevitably sustain a
degree of warm ischaemic injury, which is manifested clinically as delayed graft function …

Kidneys recovered from donation after cardiac death (DCD) are increasingly used to enlarge
the deceased donor pool. Such renal grafts, especially those derived from uncontrolled …
