Donor Lung Management From the ICU Onwards
14 December, 2022 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST
Organ preservation starts in the donor ICU and the donor organ journey can significantly impact recipient outcomes. Intensive care clinicians commit to providing the highest number of donor organs in the best possible condition through the optimization of donor physiology.
The webinar will discuss strategies for donor organ optimization prior to organ retrieval and consider the role for centralized donor management. Regulatory, legal, and ethical barriers to deceased organ donor intervention will also be explored.
