Donation-after-Determination-of-Cardiac-Death (DDCD) donor lungs can potentially
increase the pool of lungs available for Lung Transplantation (LTx). This paper presents the …

Background In Australia, increased organ donation and subsequent lung transplantation
(LTx) rates have followed enhanced donor identification, referral and management, as well …

Background Even in the extended-criteria era, the reasons for declining lung donors are not
always clear. Furthermore, it has not been determined how many actual declined lungs …

BACKGROUND Access to timely suitably size-matched quality organs remains a challenge
for pediatric (pLTx) and adult (aLTx) lung transplantation. The outcomes of donation after …

Donation after circulatory death (DCD) has the potential to expand the lung donor pool. We
aimed to assess whether DCD affected the need for perioperative extracorporeal membrane …

OBJECTIVE: We sought to examine long-term outcomes at the University of Wisconsin for all
lung transplant recipients who received lungs from donation after cardiac death donors …

Purpose The shortage of organs for transplantation is an important medical and societal
problem because transplantation is often the best therapeutic option for end-stage organ …

Background Donation after circulatory death (DCD) can increase the pool of available
organs for transplantation. This pilot study evaluates the implementation of a controlled DCD …

Rationale: To address the lung donor shortage, we obtained institutional review board and
US Food and Drug Administration approval to transplant lungs recovered from uncontrolled …

OBJECTIVES Donation after circulatory death (DCD) potentially provides transplantable
lungs suitable for a transplant, but in Italy, the need for 20 min of a no-touch period after …
