KIDNEY PRESERVATION COLD STORAGE (CS)

• G.M. Collins, MD– UCLA – Lancet 1969 ‘Kidney

WATERS RENAL PRESERVATION SYSTEM- RM3

• Belzer 1967 Lab & Clinical• Belzer & Truman (Moffin Hosp)

1971 Waters Company – Membrane Oxygenator

• 1971 Storage of a Kidney Shipped to Holland Tx 37 Hr

• UW Solution 1987 – Clinical– 1979 UW CS– 1984 Gluconate UW PP

• Characteristics Past & Present– PO2 & PCO2 Controlled– Ph Controlled at 4ºC– Microfiltration– Pulsatile Pump– Solution Gluconate UW 1984

• SRTR 1994-2003– 98,736 Deceased Donor Kidneys

• Pump Preservative (PP) – Less ECD Discards p < 0.0001– Less DGF

• Group - With High Risk Factors for DGF

• Prolonged Ischemic Times– 10 % Overall Decrease in

Discards With PP = +1500 Transplants / 10 year

– Slight Improvement in Survival

AGING AND GFR

Figure 53-13 Percentiles of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and Cockcroft-Gault creatinine clearance (CCr) by age, plotted on the same graph as data by Davies and Shock[124] on inulin clearance in healthy men. Percentiles are calculated using a fourth-order polynomial weighted quantile regression. The solid line shows a polynomial regression to the inulin data. Dashed lines without symbols show the 5th and 95th percentiles for GFR estimates.

THE AGING & EXTENDED CRITERIA DONOR KIDNEYS

• Decreased Renal Weight and Mass• Thickening Intra-Renal Vasculature

– Arteriolar Hyaline Thickening

• Glomerulosclerosis– Ischemia of Cortex

• Vascular Disease• Decreased Endothelial Growth Factors

– Numbers Decrease 30%-50% by Age 70

• Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis• Metabolic Derangements• Donation Process

Page 11: Presentation 2

Deceased Cardiac Donor (DCD)

• Profound Tissue Stresses – – Ischemia / Hypoxemia

• What Objective Measures Predict Transplant Outcomes In The Recipient??– Standardize Recording & Definitions of DCD Events– Understand The Tolerance Of Operative Procedures

Used In The Donation Process– Objective Measures ?

CONCLUSIONS

• Cold Storage vs Pump Preservation– OUTCOME / DEBATE GOES ON

• Pump Preservation– Provides Objective Data– Decreased DGF (Decreased LOS)– Decreased Discard Rates / Increases Transplants– Financially Friendly to the OPO– Financially Friendly to the Transplant Center– Advantageous to the RECIPIENT

Pumping and Outcomes of Deceased Donor Kidneys: Review of

Recent SRTR Analyses

Laura L. Christensen, M.S.Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients

Arbor Research Collaborative for HealthOctober 26, 2006

SRTRSRTR

Background

• OPTN Organ Availability Committee has long been interested in the benefits of pumping of kidneys

• SRTR has performed many analyses examining the relationship between pumping and:– Discard

– Delayed Graft Function (DGF)

– Graft Survival

Page 33: Presentation 2

SRTRSRTR

Ascertainment of Pumping Data

• Until recently, pumping of kidneys was only reported by the OPO

• Beginning July 1, 2004, transplant centers began to report pumping

Complications of Varying OPO Pumping Practice

• OPOs that never pump give us no information about pumping outcomes

• OPOs that pump selectively appear to mostly pump kidneys perceived as poor quality

• OPOs that pump most kidneys appear to not pump the poorest organs

Conclusions

• Pumping practice varies widely by OPO for each type of kidney (SCD, DCD, ECD)

• Varying practices introduce selection bias

• Associations between pumping and discard/DGF vary by kidney type and pumping practice

• Analyses at OPO and kidney levels are not always consistent

• A randomized controlled trial is needed to determine whether pumping provides beneficial effects
