Abstract
To establish a stable ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) model and determine the preservation effect of the EVLP technique on donor lungs in vitro. EVLP was performed on nonacceptable human donor and porcine lungs, and during perfusion, the oxygenation index was assessed and blood gas analysis was performed. After 4 h of EVLP of nonacceptable human donor and porcine lungs, lung function parameters remained stable, and lung energy metabolism was improved to a certain extent. EVLP can suitably maintain donor lungs in vitro for transplantation and is an effective method for ex vivo preservation of donor lungs.
