Comparative study of donor lung injury in heart-beating versus non-heart-beating donors.
OBJECTIVE The use of non-heart-beating donors (NHBD) has been advocated as an alternative to overcome the critical organ shortage in lung transplantation despite the warm ischemic period that may result in primary graft dysfunction. On the contrary, brain death in the heart-beating donor (HBD) may be an underestimated risk factor for donor lung injury. We postulated that 60 min of warm ischemia...
متن کاملNon-heart beating donors.
BACKGROUND Several groups have demonstrated that non-heart beating donation is a viable source of organs for transplantation. However, the theoretically worse graft function and survival of the kidneys obtained from non-heart beating donors (NHBDs) is still a matter of debate that has led to consider them as marginal donors for kidney transplantation. METHODS In this report, we compare the ou...
متن کاملNon Heart-Beating Donors in England
When transplantation started all organs were retrieved from patients immediately after cardio-respiratory arrest, i.e. from non heart-beating donors. After the recognition that death resulted from irreversible damage to the brainstem, organ retrieval rapidly switched to patients certified dead after brainstem testing. These heart-beating-donors have become the principal source of organs for tra...
متن کاملThe use of non-heart-beating lung donors category III can increase the donor pool.
OBJECTIVE The use of non-heart-beating (NHB) lung donors has been propagated as an alternative besides heart-beating (HB) lung donors to overcome organ shortage. We evaluated the effectiveness of NHB lung transplantation. METHODS The donor and recipient data of all 35 NHB category III lung transplantations (LTx) between January 2005 and December 2009 were reviewed. For comparison, we collecte...
متن کاملPreliminary results of heart-beating and non-heart-beating donor kidney transplants--the Singapore experience.
Renal transplantation is the ideal renal replacement therapy for treatment of end stage kidney failure but its limitation is the constant shortage of cadaveric donors. While the traditional source of cadaveric kidneys is procurement from heart-beating donors, organ procurement from non-heart-beating donors (NHBD) would help in coping with the rising demand for organs. However various important ...
