Comparison of Experimental Rat Models in Donation After Circulatory Death (DCD): in-situ vs. ex-situ Ischemia

Comparison of Experimental Rat Models in Donation After Circulatory Death (DCD): in-situ vs. ex-situ Ischemia

Introduction: Donation after circulatory death (DCD) could substantially improve donor heart availability. However, warm ischemia prior to procurement is of particular concern for cardiac graft quality. We describe a rat model of DCD with in-situ ischemia in order to characterize the physiologic cha...
