Popis: Ex situ dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) and normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of donor livers may have a complementary effect when applied sequentially. While DHOPE resuscitates the mitochondria and increases hepatic adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, NMP enables hepatobiliary viability assessment prior to transplantation. In contrast to DHOPE, NMP requires a perfusion solution with an oxygen carrier, for which red blood cells (RBC) have been used in most series. RBC, however, have limitations and cannot be used cold. We, therefore, established a protocol of sequential DHOPE, controlled oxygenated rewarming (COR), and NMP using a new hemoglobin‐based oxygen carrier (HBOC)‐based perfusion fluid (DHOPE‐COR‐NMP trial, NTR5972). Seven livers from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors, which were initially declined for transplantation nationwide, underwent DHOPE‐COR‐NMP. Livers were considered transplantable if perfusate pH and lactate normalized, bile production was ≥10 mL and biliary pH > 7.45 within 150 minutes of NMP. Based on these criteria five livers were transplanted. The primary endpoint, 3‐month graft survival, was a 100%. In conclusion, sequential DHOPE‐COR‐NMP using an HBOC‐based perfusion fluid offers a novel method of liver machine perfusion for combined resuscitation and viability testing of suboptimal livers prior to transplantation.
This clinical cohort study indicates that a combination of hypo‐ and normothermic machine perfusion, using a preservation fluid containing an hemoglobin‐based oxygen carrier, is feasible and provides a tool to resuscitate and select initially declined high‐risk donor livers that can be transplanted successfully.
