An updated review of 20 observational studies links normothermic regional perfusion to fewer ischemic biliary complications after controlled DCD liver transplantation. Ischemic cholangiopathy risk
A retrospective review of 75 abdominal NRP procedures compared intra-abdominal with descending thoracic cannulation. Thoracic access was associated with shorter cannulation time, higher circuit
Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) can increase utilization of organs donated after circulatory death, but implementation varies across U.S. organ procurement organizations (OPOs). Interviews with
This case report describes the first known heart-liver-kidney transplant for AL amyloidosis using organs recovered from a donation-after-circulatory-death donor with thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion.
This bibliometric analysis reviews 372 studies on normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) from 2014–2025, showing rapid growth in research and global adoption. The United States
This large UNOS registry study of 8,489 DCD liver transplants (2010–2024) found that shorter donor time to death (TTD) was associated with worse graft
Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) is reshaping controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD) liver transplantation. By restoring oxygenated blood flow after death declaration, NRP reduces
This study examines outcomes of donation after circulatory death (DCD) heart transplantation using thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA-NRP). A retrospective analysis of 32 recipients
This study evaluates a modified intraventricular balloon method for functional assessment of hearts from donation after circulatory death. By using a saline-filled balloon in
