Embracing Liver Transplantation From Donation After Circulatory Death in the United States in the Era of Perfusion Technology
DCD liver utilization has significantly increased, with a notable rise in the utilization of ECDs, which may be driven by new technologies such as es-MP and NRP. While es-MP at the center level use may increase transplant volume, NRP use at the OPO level appears to significantly improve DCD liver utilization.
