Employees of the NPO Splav named after A.N. Ganichev (part of the Rostec Group) and the First St. Petersburg State Medical University named after Pavlov (PSPbgMU) have developed the LifeStream HEPAR complex to maintain the viability of a donor liver. This was reported by the state corporation's press service.
The equipment allows you to assess and improve the functional state of the liver, as well as provide artificial blood circulation in the organ until it is transplanted.
Similar complexes are produced in only 3 countries, said Vadim Teplov, professor of the Department of Emergency Medical Care and Injury Surgery at PSPbgMU. He called LifeStream HEPAR world-class equipment.
The developers have already received a registration certificate for the product. Now the device is involved in clinical trials at the Moscow City Coordination Center for Organ Donation.
Features of LifeStream HEPAR
The hardware and software complex allows you to rehabilitate the liver after an ischemic-reperfusion injury (a pathological condition that occurs when blood flow is restored in tissues). LifeStream HEPAR increases the effectiveness of donor organ transplantation.
All this is achieved through the use of centrifugal pumps, maintaining a given flow value, a system for detecting and trapping air bubbles, and the use of an automated infusion system.
