Donation after cardiac death liver transplantation: predictors of outcome.
We aimed to identify recipient, donor and transplant risk factors associated with graft failure and patient mortality following donation after cardiac death (DCD) liver transplantation. These estimates were derived from Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients data from all US liver-only DCD recipients between September 1, 2001 and April 30, 2009 (n = 1567) and Cox regression techniques. Th...
متن کاملLiver transplantation using Donation after Cardiac Death donors.
The success of solid organ transplantation has brought about burgeoning waiting lists with insufficient donation rates and substantial waiting list mortality. All countries have strived to expand donor numbers beyond the standard Donation after Brain Death (DBD). This has lead to the utilization of Donation after Cardiac Death (DCD) donors, also frequently referred to as Non-Heart Beating Donor...
متن کاملLiver transplantation in the critically ill: donation after cardiac death compared to donation after brain death grafts.
Patients with end stage liver disease may become critically ill prior to LT requiring admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). The high acuity patients may be thought too ill to transplant; however, often LT is the only therapeutic option. Choosing the correct liver allograft for these patients is often difficult and it is imperative that the allograft work immediately. Donation after cardi...
متن کاملChild-to-Adult Liver Transplantation With Donation After Cardiac Death Donors
Development of organ transplantation is restricted by the discrepancy between the lack of donors and increasing number of patients. The outcome of pediatric donors transplanted into adult recipients especially with donation after circulatory death (DCD) pattern has not been well studied. The aim of this paper is to describe our experience of 3 successful DCD donor child-to-adult liver transplan...
متن کاملOrthotopic liver transplantation from cardiac death donors in the mouse: a new model and evaluation of cardiac death time
Objective(s): The goal of this research was to develop a mouse orthotopic liver transplantation (LTx) model from donor-after-cardiac-death (DCD) grafts. Materials and Methods: Mice were randomly assigned to the experimental group or the sham group. The mice in the experimental group were divided into three groups according to the warm ischemia time (WIT) of liver graft: normal LTx, WIT 30 minut...
