The course will focus on European transplant surgeons that are interested in performing organ perfusion, either hypothermic or normothermic. Machine perfusion is entering an exciting new era with hopeful results from the first clinical trials. We strongly believe in synergy and underlying common grounds of organ injury and repair, so the course will address both abdominal and thoracic organ transplantation and aims to harbor 20-25 attendants.
The course:
Renowned faculty from leading centers will share their practical experience and tips and tricks for problem solving in the theory part of the course at Monday (day 1).
Thursdat (day 2), will be dedicated to hands-on opportunity to perform under their guidance all hypothermic and normothermic perfusion techniques, including normothermic regional / central perfusion in the wet lab (live pig organs). In this part, separate abdominal and thoracic working groups will be formed to maximize exposure and guarantee learning objectives.
Several organ perfusion manufactures will be present to demonstrate their specific equipment. We aim for a maximum how-to-do-it experience, so that attendees feel confident to start or proceed with their own program.
