Abstract
- We present the first en bloc heart-lung donor transplant procurement using the Paragonix LUNGguard™ donor preservation system. This system offers reliable static hypothermic conditions designed to prevent major complications such as cold ischemic injury, uneven cooling and physical damage. While this represents a single case, the encouraging results warrant further investigation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
