Techxen, it does seem that Italy is doing very well with Cytosorb. I am also excited about Aferetica's PerLife System that is being released. PerLife™ Is the First System Integrating a Sorbent Purification Technology to Perfuse, Cleanse, Recondition, and Preserve Harvested Solid Organs for Transplantation. PerLife™ is the first integrated system that incorporates sorbent purification to perfuse, cleanse, recondition, and preserve harvested kidneys and livers, which account for 89% of all solid organ transplants globally The PerSorb sorbent cartridge leverages CytoSorbents’ state-of-the-art adsorptive porous polymer technology, targeting the reduction of a broad range of toxins from the perfusate that can compromise organ function The PerLife™ system incorporates a unique fluid handling system, with specially designed disposables, cannulas, and proprietary perfusate solutions Active thermoregulation allows tight yet flexible control of temperatures (4-37oC) during perfusion Using an innovative design, the same equipment and disposables can be utilized to perfuse either kidneys or livers, simplifying the setup for customersThe goal of the PerLife™ system is to improve organ function and viability, while reducing the risk of primary graft failure and organ rejection. One major targeted use is the reconditioning of unusable or sub-optimally functioning “marginal” organs that are typically discarded. This may increase the availability of scarce, suitable organs and improve the clinical outcomes of complex and expensive transplantation procedures.
