Testing preservation fluid to prevent infections after liver or kidney transplant
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at whether testing the fluid used to store donated organs can help doctors find and treat infections earlier, possibly leading to better outcomes after a liver or kidney transplant.

This trial checks if monitoring antibiotic levels in the blood can help doctors give the right dose to liver transplant patients with serious bacterial infections. The goal is to make the treatment work better.
This study tests a special cold storage solution and machine to keep donated kidneys healthy before they are transplanted. It may help the kidneys work better after surgery.
This trial tests different ways of managing fluids during liver transplant surgery to see if it can reduce blood loss. It may be helpful for patients with end-stage liver disease who are waiting for a transplant.
This trial checks whether a special preservation machine (called machine perfusion) can predict how well a donated kidney will work after transplant. Participation helps doctors better match kidneys to patients and improve transplant success.
This study tests a blood test called GraftAssure that may help doctors detect if your body is rejecting your new kidney. By monitoring this, the test could help prevent kidney damage and improve transplant outcomes.
This study follows people who are getting a liver transplant (including repeat transplants) to monitor changes in their body using test results. It may help doctors understand how patients are doing after transplant and improve care over time.
