Novel pulmonary abdominal normothermic regional perfusion circuit for simultaneous in-donor evaluation and preservation of lungs and abdominal organs in donation after circulatory death
PANRP offers a promising alternative to traditional EVLP for cDCD lung evaluation, allowing in situ assessment of multiple organs simultaneously. This approach may overcome logistical and economic challenges associated with ex vivo techniques, enabling a more efficient evaluation process. Further studies are warranted to confirm its clinical applicability and impact on long-term outcomes.
