Abstrakt: Background: Full-flow perfusion during prolonged ex situ lung perfusion (ESLP) results in unacceptable pulmonary edema formation. Clinical ESLP at 30% to 50% predicted cardiac output (CO) supports acceptable physiologic outcomes; however, progressive pulmonary edema still develops. Lower flow rates may provide equivalent physiologic preservation with less edema formation due to reduced hydrostatic pressures. We report our results of moderate-flow (MF; 30% CO) vs low-flow (LF; 10% CO) negative pressure ventilation (NPV)-ESLP with transplantation.
Methods: Twelve pig lungs underwent 12-hours of NPV-ESLP with 30% or 10% CO (n = 6/group). Three left lungs per group were transplanted post-ESLP and assessed in vivo over 4 hours. Lung function was assessed by physiologic parameters, weight-gain, and pro-inflammatory cytokine profiles.
Results: Results are MF vs LF (mean ± SEM). All lungs demonstrated acceptable oxygenation post-ESLP (454.2 ± 40.85 vs 422.7 ± 31.68, P = .28); however, after transplantation, the MF lungs demonstrated significantly better oxygenation (300.7 ± 52.26 vs 141.9 ± 36.75, P = .03). There was no significant difference in compliance after ESLP (21.38 ± 2.28 vs 16.48 ± 2.34, P = .08); however, pulmonary artery pressure (PAP; 10.89 ± 2.28 vs 21.11 ± 0.93, P = .06) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR; 438.60 ± 97.97 vs 782.20 ± 162.20, P = .05) were significantly higher in the LF group. Weight gain (%) post-ESLP and post-transplant was similar between groups (29.42 ± 5.72 vs 24.17 ± 4.42, P = .24; and 29.63 ± 7.23 vs 57.04 ± 15.78, P = .09). TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly greater throughout LF ESLP.
Conclusions: The MF NPV-ESLP results in superior lung function with less inflammation compared to LF NPV-ESLP.
