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 …

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. Normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) has shown promising results
for preservation, assessment, and reconditioning of kidney allografts in preclinical studies …

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

Normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) represents a novel approach for graft
preservation and functional improvement in kidney transplantation. We investigated whether …

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. 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: Restoring metabolism to an organ after hypothermic storage and before
transplantation could reverse some of the detrimental effects of ischemic injury. This may be …

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 …
