Few reports on a biventricular working heart model with ex vivo perfusion exist owing to the complexity of establishing a circuit. Hence, we investigated it for donation after circulatory death. The heart in six juvenile pigs (~20 kg) was arrested by asphyxiation. After 30 minutes of global ischemia, the heart was harvested, reperfused with normoxemic blood cardioplegia for 20 minutes, and subsequently...
In donation after circulatory death heart transplantation, the donor heart is exposed to circulatory load. The right ventricle, due to its structure, has high compliance for volume load but is particularly vulnerable to increased pressure load. This study used a porcine model to conduct a functional assessment of the hemodynamics of the heart, with a focus on the right ventricle. Six pigs weighing...
