DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2021.01.874
Abstract: Purpose Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion (EVLP) is an excellent method to preserve and recondition donor lungs, thus increasing the lung donor pool. This systematic review summarizes studies comparing both primary graft dysfunction (PGD) and survival… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2021.01.877
Abstract: Purpose Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) offers a unique potential in evaluation, optimization and transplantation of lungs that would otherwise potentially be rejected. Between 2016 and 2020 208 lung transplants (LuTx) were performed and 22… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ajt.16794
Abstract: Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a novel lung preservation strategy that facilitates the use of marginal allografts; however, it is more expensive than static cold storage (SCS). To understand how preservation method might affect… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/ti.2022.10455
Abstract: Endogenous production of carbon monoxide (CO) is affected by inflammatory phenomena and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Precise measurement of exhaled endogenous CO (eCO) is possible thanks to a laser spectrometer (ProCeas® from AP2E company). We assessed eCO… read more here.
