ABSTRACT:
A perfusion apparatus for maintaining a harvested organ during a preservation period is disclosed. The perfusion apparatus includes a preservation chamber for storing the organ during the preservation period. A perfusion circuit is provided having a first line for providing an oxygenated fluid to the organ, and a second line for carrying depleted fluid away from the organ. The perfusion apparatus also includes a device operably associated with the perfusion circuit for maintaining the organ at a substantially normothermic temperature. Moreover, the perfusion apparatus maintains the organ in a viable state.
