The OrganOx metra® is a transportable device intended to be used to sustain donor livers destined for transplantation in a functioning state for a total preservation time of up to 12 hours.The OrganOx metra® device is suitable for liver grafts from donors after brain death (DBD), or liver grafts from donors after circulatory death (DCD) less than or equal to 40 years old, with less than or equal to 20 mins of functional warm ischemic time (time from donor systolic blood pressure less than 50 mmHg), and macro steatosis less than or equal to 15 percent, in a near-physiologic, normothermic and functioning state intended for a potential transplant recipient.
A dedicated system designed to support and maintain a donated liver organ during transport from the donor to the receiver hospital where the organ will be transplanted into the recipient. This system will provide technical support functions to keep the organ in as near-physiologic state as possible.
