What did studies of ex vivo lung-kidney perfusion find?

3

Studies of ex vivo lung-kidney perfusion measured 3 outcomes: oxygenation capacity, lung compliance and perfusate lactate concentration.

Oxygenation capacity

no changein pigs1

1 study
  1. Ex vivo lung-kidney perfusion showed no clear effect on oxygenation capacity in pigs (Compared with ex vivo lung perfusion alone).

    “Oxygenation capacity was comparable between groups.”

Lung compliance

upin pigs1

1 study
  1. Ex vivo lung-kidney perfusion increases lung compliance in pigs (Compared with ex vivo lung perfusion alone; reported as trends).

    “EVLKP demonstrated trends of higher compliance, lower inspiratory pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance.”

Perfusate lactate concentration

downin pigs1

1 study
  1. Ex vivo lung-kidney perfusion decreases perfusate lactate concentration in pigs (Compared with ex vivo lung perfusion alone).

    “Perfusate lactate concentration in EVLKP was markedly lower (P<0.0001)”
