  • Organ transporter with supplemental oxygenation system
    Patent number: 11129379
    Abstract: An apparatus for perfusing an organ or tissue including a perfusion circuit for perfusing the organ or tissue with liquid perfusate; and an oxygenation system for oxygenating perfusate that recirculates through the perfusion circuit. The oxygenation system includes an oxygen circuit for delivering oxygen to the liquid perfusate and an air circuit for delivering ambient air to the liquid perfusate. The air may be pumped through the oxygenation system via an air pump. The air or oxygen may be bubble through the perfusate to increase oxygen levels in the perfusate. Such supplemental oxygen may beneficial during hypothermic preservation of organs.
    Type: Grant
