Organ transplantation is a very successful therapy for a wide range of medical conditions
that cause irreversible failure of an essential organ system. Short-and long-term outcomes …

Background. Ex vivo kidney perfusion is an evolving platform that demonstrates promise in
preserving and rehabilitating the kidney grafts. Despite this, there is little consensus on the …

Kidney transplantation has become a well-established treatment option for patients with end-

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of donor kidneys provides the opportunity for
improved graft preservation and objective pre-transplant ex-vivo organ assessment …

The preservation of kidney grafts has historically been based on hypothermia of the organs
to decrease the baseline cellular metabolism. According to the Van't Hoff equation, during …

One of the main causes of early graft dysfunction in kidney transplantation is ischaemia
reperfusion (I/R) injury. This unavoidable event occurs immediately when oxygenated blood …

Background: Normothermic ex-vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) is an emerging technique for
