Association between Allograft Ischemic Time and Adverse Outcomes Following Lung Transplantation

Efforts to increase the number of viable donors, such as ex vivo lung perfusion and donation after circulatory death, are likely to significantly alter allograft ischemic time distributions. As such, understanding the impact allograft ischemia has on short and long-term outcomes will be key in determining best practices going forward.
