The miracle of organ donation — and a breakthrough for the future | Abbas Ardehali

Fri, 15 Mar 2024

Description

Organ transplants save lives, but they come with challenges: every minute a healthy donated organ is on ice increases risk. And even if things go perfectly, rejection of the organ is still possible. Cardiothoracic surgeon Abbas Ardehali introduces cutting-edge medical advances in machine perfusion — a portable platform that keeps organs alive outside of the body — that could help put time back on the patient's side. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
