What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of donor livers preserved by OCS in a near physiologic state.

    Measured: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

  2. Number of events directly related to the use of the OCS Liver that led to the donor liver being deemed not clinically acceptable and, as a result, not transplanted

    Measured: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of donor livers maintained in a metabolically active and functioning state during preservation.

    Measured: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

  2. Number of donor livers monitored for perfusate temperatures, SvO2, hematocrit, Hepatic Artery flow rates, Portal Vein flow rate, Hepatic Artery pressure, Portal vein pressure, and bile production during preservation.

    Measured: Within 1 day of organ retrieval

  3. Frequency of liver graft-related serious adverse events

    Measured: 30 days after transplantation
