PRETRANSPLANT PROGNOSTIC TESTING OF DAMAGED KIDNEYS DURING EMS PERFUSION

Using a canine autotransplantation model, the potential of prognostic testing during ex vivo warm perfusion with EMS technology was assessed. Kidneys were subjected to 30 minutes of warm ischemia (WI) followed by 24 hours of static storage in ViaSpan at 4C. Following WI and static storage, the kidne...

Zusammenfassung:Using a canine autotransplantation model, the potential of prognostic testing during ex vivo warm perfusion with EMS technology was assessed. Kidneys were subjected to 30 minutes of warm ischemia (WI) followed by 24 hours of static storage in ViaSpan at 4C. Following WI and static storage, the kidneys were transitioned to three hours of EMS perfusion at 30C. During this period, parameters indicative of renal metabolism and function were employed to predict outcomes prospectively. The results indicate the possibility of using warm temperature perfusion to evaluate kidneys prior to transplantation.
