Abstract
Currently, the number of donors is insufficient to meet the demand for renal grafts. Expanded criteria for donation after brain death and donation after circulatory death (DCD) programmes have been developed as strategies to minimise this problem. Hypothermic machine perfusion has previously demonstrated its usefulness in expanded criteria donation and DCD preservation. DCD type and donor age increase the risk of graft loss.
