Organ retrieved from donors after circulatory deaths (DCD) is vulnerable of the effects of
warm ischemia with important consequence on graft survival and posttransplant outcome.
Preservation techniques, such as normothermic regional perfusion (NRP), can be used to
reduce the effects of the cardiac arrest and to generate a continuous flow to the organs,
resulting in a better preservation of the organs for transplantation. However, technical
complications may occur during NRP which can compromise the retrieve of donors' organs …
