摘要:
An organ perfusion apparatus may include at least two tubes connected to an organ or tissue. A method of perfusing an organ or tissue may include connecting a first end of each of the at least two tubes to an organ or tissue, applying a fluid motive force to a perfusion fluid in the two tubes to force the fluid through the two tubes into the organ or tissue, and perfusing the organ or tissue through the at least two tubes such that the fluid motive force, provided by, e.g., a pump, and backpressure generated by the organ or tissue, establishes a flow balance between the at least two tubes. The flow balance may be altered without altering the fluid motive force that is applied.
摘要:
A perfusion apparatus including a perfusion circuit that perfuses an organ or tissue has a compartment that supports an organ or tissue during perfusion, an internal cover, and an external cover that closes the apparatus. A wall portion may extend substantially perpendicularly between the internal cover and the external cover to define a document compartment between the internal cover, the external cover and the wall portion. A tamper evident seal will not permit the external cover to open without creating a record of whether the external cover has been opened after the tamper evident seal has been activated.
