Ex Vivo Resuscitation of Adult Pig Hearts

RESUMO

One possible way to expand the human heart donor pool is to include non-heart-beating human donors. To begin validating this approach, we developed an ex vivo cardiac perfusion circuit to support large mammalian hearts in Langendorff mode and beating-ejecting mode and to assess and improve their ischemic tolerance.
