Successful Implementation of Unmanned Aircraft Use for Delivery of a Human Organ for Transplantation
Conclusions:
Here, we completed the first successful delivery of a human organ using unmanned aircraft. This study brought together multidisciplinary resources to develop, build, and test the first organ drone system, through which we performed the first transplant of a drone transported kidney. These innovations could inform not just transplantation, but other areas of medicine requiring life-saving payload delivery as well.
