Article Synopsis
- The study explored a modified adenosine and lidocaine (AL) solution for hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) of porcine kidneys, comparing its effects to the standard University Wisconsin (UW) solution.
- During HMP, kidneys perfused with modified AL had significantly higher flow rates and a greater initial perfusion flow index than those with UW, although differences leveled out after several hours.
- The modified AL solution resulted in lower levels of lactate during reperfusion, suggesting better metabolic performance, though overall kidney function indicators showed no significant differences between the two groups, highlighting the potential for improving kidney preservation strategies.
