The Paragonix BAROguard Donor Lung Preservation System (BG) offers precise control for pediatric lung transplants. This new method ensures stable temperatures and pressures, improving outcomes for high-risk recipients.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology and Thoracic Surgery
- Transplantation Medicine
Background:
- Pediatric lung transplant outcomes can be improved with better donor organ preservation.
- Traditional ice storage methods often fail to maintain recommended temperature (4-6°C) and inflation pressure (10-15 cm H2O) ranges.
- The Paragonix BAROguard Donor Lung Preservation System (BG) offers precise hypothermic and barometric control.
