Abstract

En 中文

While normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has benefits over static cold storage (SCS), its efficacy in high-acuity recipients with high Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores, particularly using a back-to-base application model, is not well established. We aimed to compare short-term outcomes between NMP and SCS in this cohort.
