Transportable normothermic kidney perfusion for 24 hours or longer could enable viability
assessment of marginal grafts, increased organ use, and improved transplant logistics …

Background The measurement of urinary biomarkers during ex vivo normothermic kidney
perfusion (EVKP) may aid in the assessment of a kidney prior to transplantation. This study …

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. Normothermic perfusion is an alternative but little studied method of organ
preservation. Herein, we report the first case of ex vivo normothermic renal transplant …

A great deal of research is still needed to optimize and logistically place hypothermic and
normothermic perfusion technologies. In the future, we may progress toward organ-tailored …

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

We report the successful transplantation of a pair of human kidneys that were declined for
transplantation due to inadequate in situ perfusion but subsequently transplanted after …

A study was performed to determine the limiting factors to expanding the donor pool with
warm ischemically (WI) damaged kidneys. Canine kidneys were damaged by 30 min of WI …

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 …

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