Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare 2 different cold storage solutions, used to preserve donor lungs for lung transplantation, and their effect on cytokine activation related to ischemic reperfusion injury. Primary endpoint is 30 day survival.

Detailed description

The length of ischemic time in harvesting lung allografts is associated with graft survival. It is further thought that ischemic changes in early post-transplantation bronchoscopic biopsies has a direct correlation with later development of chronic rejection.
