Clinical Trial Summary

Only about 15% of the potential candidates for lung donation are considered suitable for transplantation. A new method for ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has been developed and can be used for evaluation and reconditioning of "marginal" and unacceptable lungs. The ´purpose of this study is to analyse the executability and safety of ex vivo lung perfusion pulmonary ex vivo in marginal donors.

Donor Inclusion criteria:

- Age < 55 years-old;

- Smoking history < 20 pack-year;

- Absence of significant chest trauma;

- Absence of purulent secretions and gastric contents at bronchoscopy;

- PaO2 < 300 mm Hg (FIO2 1.0, PEEP 5 cmH2O)

Exclusion criteria:

- Lungs presenting PO2 < 400 mmHg after ex vivo lung perfusion ;
