TL;DR: Normothermic machine perfusion of the liver improved early graft function, demonstrated by reduced peak serum aspartate transaminase levels and early allograft dysfunction rates, and improved organ utilization and preservation times, although no differences were seen in graft or patient survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
In situ normothermic regional perfusion for controlled donation after circulatory death--the United Kingdom experience.
Gabriel C. Oniscu,Lucy V. Randle,Paolo Muiesan,Andrew J. Butler,Ian Currie,M. T. P. R. Perera,John Forsythe,Christopher J.E. Watson +7 more
TL;DR: A period of normothermic regional perfusion in DCD donation facilitates organ recovery and may improve short‐term outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations on the ex situ perfusion of livers for transplantation.
Christopher J.E. Watson,Vasilis Kosmoliaptsis,Caitlin Pley,Lucy V. Randle,Corinna Fear,Keziah Crick,Alexander Gimson,Michael Allison,Sara Upponi,Rebecca Brais,Ina Jochmans,Andrew J. Butler +11 more
TL;DR: Evaluation of bile pH may offer a valuable insight into bile duct integrity and risk of posttransplant ischemic cholangiopathy, as well as a combination of transaminase release, glucose metabolism, lactate clearance, and maintenance of acid‐base balance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advantages of normothermic perfusion over cold storage in liver preservation.
Charles Imber,Shawn D. St. Peter,Inigo Lopez De Cenarruzabeitia,Dave Pigott,Tim James,Richard G. Taylor,James Mcguire,David P. Hughes,Andrew J. Butler,Michael A. Rees,Peter J. Friend +10 more
TL;DR: Normothermic sanguineous oxygenated perfusion is a superior method of preservation compared with simple cold storage in UW solution and allows the possibility to assess viability of the graft before transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variability of motor potentials evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation depends on muscle activation.
TL;DR: Stabilizing a stable low intensity contraction helps stabilize cortical and spinal excitability and assesses dependence of single MEP amplitudes on both stimulus intensity and low intensity background muscle activation level.
