    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular and Respiratory System Science
    • Transplantation Science
    • Organ Preservation Technology

    Background:

    • Lung transplantation success is limited by inadequate ischemic protection and preservation methods.
    • Warm ischemia induces significant lung injury, including edema, mitochondrial damage, and functional decline.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review current strategies for lung preservation during ischemia.
    • To identify methods that extend tolerance to warm ischemia and improve organ viability.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on lung preservation techniques.
    • Analysis of the effects of warm ischemia on lung physiology.
    • Evaluation of different preservation strategies: hypothermia, hyperbaria, and perfusion.

    Main Results:

    • Warm ischemia causes rapid alveolar-capillary damage and functional impairment.
    • Ventilatory assistance can increase tolerance to warm ischemia.
    • Hypothermic pulsatile perfusion demonstrates superior protection compared to other methods.

    Conclusions:

    • Hypothermic pulsatile perfusion is a promising strategy for extending lung preservation times.
    • Further advances in drug protection and preservation solutions may enable longer ischemic periods and enhance transplant outcomes.
