Non-ischemic Heart Preservation via Hypothermic Cardioplegic Perfusion Induces Immunodepletion of Donor Hearts Resulting in Diminished Graft Infiltration Following Transplantation

Abstract Introduction: Many donor organs contain significant leukocyte reservoirs which upon transplantation activate recipient leukocytes to initiate acute rejection. We aimed to assess whether non-ischemic heart preservation via ex vivo perfusion promotes immunodepletion..

Monitoring of perfusion quality and prediction of donor heart function during ex-vivo machine perfusion by myocardial microcirculation versus surrogate parameters

Abstract Currently, lactate (Lac) is used to evaluate  (MP) of hearts, donated after circulatory death (DCD). We hypothesize that monitoring of myocardial  (mLDP) by Laser-Doppler-Perfusion is superior to Lac to evaluate perfusion..

The Great Ormond Street Hospital Immunoadsorption Method for ABO-Incompatible Heart Transplantation: a Practical Technique

Traditionally, ABO-incompatible heart transplantation was accomplished using a plasma exchange technique to remove recipient plasma containing donor-incompatible anti-A/B isohaemagglutinins. However, this technique exposed patients to large volumes of allogeneic blood..
