Arms & Interventions

OCS Liver

Experimental

OCS Liver will be used to preserve the donor liver

Intervention: OCS Liver (Device)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Number of donor livers preserved by OCS in a near physiologic state.

Time Frame: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

Number of events directly related to the use of the OCS Liver that led to the donor liver being deemed not clinically acceptable and, as a result, not transplanted

Time Frame: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

Secondary Outcomes

  • Number of donor livers monitored for perfusate temperatures, SvO2, hematocrit, Hepatic Artery flow rates, Portal Vein flow rate, Hepatic Artery pressure, Portal vein pressure, and bile production during preservation.(Within 1 day of organ retrieval)
  • Number of donor livers maintained in a metabolically active and functioning state during preservation.(Within 1 day of organ retrieval)
  • Frequency of liver graft-related serious adverse events(30 days after transplantation)
