Normothermic Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion (EVLP) For An Improved Assessment of Donor Lungs For Transplantation
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Ex vivo lung perfusion with Steen Solution™ for Lung Transplantation. Completed, enrolled 22 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The use of ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) will allow for a secondary evaluation technique for donor lungs that fail to meet standard acceptability criteria. This advanced assessment might lead to increased utilization rates of donor lungs and improved outcomes after lung transplantation.

Interventions
The circuit is primed with 2,000cc Steen Solution™. At one hour of EVLP, 500 cc of circulated perfusate was removed and replenished with 500 cc of fresh perfusate. After that, 250 cc of perfusate was exchanged every hour.
