SYSTEM FOR ORGAN AND TISSUE PRESERVATION AND HYPOTHERMIC BLOOD SUBSTITUTION

摘要

A unified solution system for organ and/or tissue preservation and/or hypothermic blood substitution can be used to prepare multiple solutions for use in various stages of organ procurement, preservation and transplantation and bloodless surgery procedures. The base electrolyte solution may comprise an (hyperkalemic) intracellular or extracellular base solution to which various additives are added depending on the specific stages of the preservation or transplantation procedure. Base and additives can be stored in separate containers in a single package or kit.
