Use of pulmonoplegia and delivery system during recipient surgery in lung transplantation
Keyword(s):
Lung transplantation in the United States has steadily grown over the last decade. Major attention has been with the understanding of lung ischemia–reperfusion injury and how it relates to primary graft dysfunction. In 2015, our institution implemented the use of a pulmonoplegia solution during recipient surgery of lung transplantation. A unique circuit utilizing the heart lung machine is used to deliver the pulmonoplegia solution. This system is considered to be a key contributing factor to the success of our lung transplant program.
