Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has emerged as a promising tool for the
preservation, viability assessment, and repair of deceased-donor kidneys prior to …

Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end stage renal disease
(ESRD). Donor availability is lower than demand, therefore suboptimal grafts retrieved from …

Kidney transplantation remains the gold standard treatment for patients suffering from end-
stage kidney disease. To meet the constantly growing organ demands grafts donated after …

Background. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) may allow resuscitation and improved
assessment of kidneys before transplantation. Using discarded human kidneys, we …

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

Background Ex vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) can reverse some of the detrimental
effects of ischemic injury. However, in kidneys with warm and cold ischemic injury the …

Machine perfusion for preservation led to compelling success for the outcome of renal
transplantation. Further refinements of methods to decrease preservation injury remain an …

Organ preservation and re‐conditioning using machine perfusion technologies continue to
generate promising results in terms of viability assessment, organ utilization and improved …

Imperial College London, published an interesting article on improved renal graft perfusion
by the addition of thrombalexin to the perfusion fluid during hypothermic machine perfusion …

For 2 centuries, researchers have studied ex vivo perfusion intending to preserve the
physiologic function of isolated organs. If it were indeed possible to maintain ex vivo organ …
