Machine 'Breathes' life into risky donor livers before transplant
NCT ID NCT03929523
Summary
This study tested a new machine technique to prepare higher-risk donor livers before transplant surgery. The machine pumps a cold, oxygenated solution through the liver to potentially reduce damage and improve how well it works after surgery. Researchers compared this new method to the standard cold storage method in 266 patients across France to see if it led to fewer early complications.
