- TransMedics by providing the Organ Care System and nonclinical grade disposable perfusion modules
Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has become routine practice in lung transplantation. Still, running periods exceeding 12hours have not been undertaken clinically to date, and it remains unclear how the perfusion solution for extended running periods should be composed and which parameters may predict outcomes. Twenty-four porcine lungs underwent EVLP for 24hours using the Organ Care System (OCS). Lungs were ventilated and perfused with STEEN's solution enriched with erythrocytes (n=8), acellular STEEN's solution (n=8), or low-potassium dextran (LPD) solution enriched with erythrocytes (n=8). After 24hours, the left lungs were transplanted into recipient pigs. After clamping of the contralateral lung, the recipients were observed for 6hours. The most favorable outcome was observed in organs utilizing STEEN solution enriched with erythrocytes as perfusate, whereas the least favorable outcome was seen with LPD solution enriched with erythrocytes for perfusion. Animals surviving the observation period showed lower peak airway pressure (PAWP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) during OCS preservation. The results suggest that transplantation of lungs following 24hours of EVLP is feasible but dependent on the composition of the perfusate. PAWP and PVR during EVLP are early and late predictors of transplant outcome, respectively.
