Release date: 2015-08-20 A ground-breaking technology that allows surgeons to thaw frozen kidneys on ice is seen by scientists as "the dawn of transplant innovation." Doctors hope that this technique, which is a normal temperature perfusion, can reduce the number of people waiting for organ donation by 10% within five years. This method has been successfully implemented for 40 transplanters at Leicester Hospital and Cambridge's Ardenbrook Hospital. The doctors are preparing to expand the trial to conduct clinical trials of the technology at Freeman Hospital in Newcastle and Gay Hospital in London. Studies have shown that normal temperature thawing technology significantly improves the quality of the kidney before transplantation, increases the success rate of transplant surgery, and prolongs the life of transplanted organs. Once isolated, the kidney needs to be stored at a temperature close to the freezing point to ensure degeneration and necrosis of the organ tissue prior to transplantation. But low temperatures cause damage like other transplant factors, meaning that one in five donor organs cannot be used because of cryopreservation. The new technology allows the frozen organ to gradually thaw through warm oxygen-enriched blood flow, while also injecting anti-rejection drugs into the organ before the organ enters the receptor. The process takes about an hour. In the process, the surgeon can also observe whether the organ is in an optimal state. At present, all transplant operations are successfully performed after the normal temperature perfusion. Studies have shown that this process allows the organ to be successfully transplanted 20 hours after excision, and can also reverse some of the frozen damage and reduce the rejection rate.
