Background: Preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the advantages of oxygenated hypothermic machine perfusion (HMPO) during kidney preservation. However, the optimal oxygenation levels during HMPO remain undetermined. The aim of this study was to compare different levels of oxygenation (0%, 21%, 50%, and 100%) during 22 h of active oxygenated HMP (HMPO) using oxygen preloading by bubbling oxygenation in the preservation solution and continuous surface oxygenation during MP in a porcine DCD model.
