Monitoring brain and organ activity in organ donors

Organ PreservationBrain Reperfusion or Regain of Brain Function During Normothermic Regional Perfusion

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This trial tests special monitors on organ donors after life support is withdrawn, to see how the organs and brain behave. It may help improve organ transplant outcomes.

Anesthesia study for organ donation after brain death

This trial compares different anesthesia strategies used during organ donation surgery after brain death to see which one helps preserve organs better for transplant. It is for brain-dead adult patients in the ICU whose families agree to organ donation and research participation.

Liver viability test during machine perfusion

This trial tests a new way to check if a donated liver is healthy while it is kept on a machine that keeps it alive before transplant. Doctors measure a substance called FMN in the fluid that flows through the liver and in bile. This could help them know how well the liver might work after transplant.
