Heterotopic Cervical Heart Transplantation in Mice
Published on: August 25, 2015
Abstract:
Emergency care of the reimplantation candidate involves care of the patient as well as the severed part. The part should be cooled rapidly to 0-4 C (32-39.2 F) after gentle cleansing with normal saline solution or Ringer's lactate. The stump should be gently irrigated with normal saline and pressure dressing applied. The suitability of the reimplantation candidate, chances for survival of the amputated part, and likelihood of eventual rehabilitation should be evaluated.
