简要总结
Donor corneas are harvested and then stored in the Eye Bank to maintain their viability until analysis and subsequent release for transplantation. The storage period of donor corneas is classified in terms of duration and storage temperature: short-intermediate cold (up to two weeks between 2 and 6°C) and long-term warm (up to 4 weeks between 31 and 37°C). Corneal tissues are initially collected and stored cold at 4°C. After evaluation they can be stored in cold storage medium until transplantation or placed in organ culture at 31°C. IRESTORE, a cold storage liquid, has recently become available.
详细描述
The device used in the study is classified as class II A (medium risk) The device iRestore Conservation, sterile liquid for the preservation of corneal grafts in hypothermic conditions up to 14 days. Consists of a 20 ml solution suitable for the temporary preservation of corneal tissues in hypothermia split into a cylindric, optical bottom glass vial, which provides specular microscope examination.
It contains dextran as Osmotic agent; sodium pyruvate, glucose as energy source; salts, aminoacids, vitamins as nutritional sources; gentamycin: 143 µg/mL as preservative system; HEPES, sodium bicarbonate as pH Buffer; Phenol red as pH indicator.
