Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Donors over the age of 16 years.
  • Liver allografts from donation after brain death (DBD), standard and extended criteria donors. (SCD, ECD) and donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors.
  • Liver must be perfused on OrganOx metra perfusion device within 8 hours of in situ cold perfusion.
  • The perfusion should last a minimum of 4 hours and maximum of 24 hours.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Living donors.
  • Liver being transplanted as part of a multi-organ transplant (eg liver and kidney).
  • Liver intended for split transplant.
  • Donor age \<16 years
  • Liver which investigator is unwilling to recruit to study.
  • Any liver in which logistics prevent perfusion on the OrganOx metra perfusion device within 8 hours of in situ cold perfusion.
  • Recipient Inclusion Criteria:
  • Adult patients (18 years or more).
  • Active on the waiting list for liver transplantation.
  • Able to give informed consent.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Patient and Graft Survival

Time Frame: 30 days

Patient survival after liver transplantation and liver graft survival will be assessed at 30-days post-op as a composite outcome measure. This will be recorded as yes/no outcome.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Primary non-function(10 days)
  • Adverse events, transplantation and organ discard rates.(30 days)
  • Biliary investigation or intervention(6 months)
  • Patient and Graft Survival(12 months)
  • Peak serum AST (U/L)(7 days)
  • Early allograft dysfunction (EAD)(7 days)
