  • Post mortem reconstitution of circulation
    Patent number: 6824389
    Abstract: A method of selectively perfusing a non-preserved, non-heart beating cadaver with a perfusate to recreate vascular circulation in a cadaver as a mechanism for study of the vascular function, research and teaching of surgical procedures and general medical training. The arteries or veins of the cadaver are exposed, dissected, and flushed to remove clots and excess blood. A selected arterial tree of the cadaver is perfused with a solution via inflow through a point of access and outflow through at least one point of egress. The points of access and egress establish the limits of the circuit to be studied or used for testing.
