In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the ability of Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP) to resuscitate moderately steatotic livers for transplantation in patients. This will be a single-site clinical trial placing donor livers with 30-60% macrosteatosis on NMP, and then transplanting those that meet commonly accepted viability criteria. The results of this study could lead to a trial extending NMP transplantation to severely steatotic livers, further expanding the donor organ pool.
