VitaSmart™ Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion System (HOPE)
VitaSmart™ Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion System (HOPE)
Advancing the Standard of Organ Preservation
The VitaSmart™ Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion System, provides clinicians with the ability to implement hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE) protocols with an easy-to-use and simple-to-setup system requiring minimal personnel to monitor perfusion progress.
Description
Oxygen is needed at cold pumping temperatures as the mitochondrial respiration switches from anaerobic to aerobic metabolism. The HOPE protocol supplies a significant upload of cellular adenine nucleotides to reduce ischemic injury. The VitaSmart™ is your simple and economical choice to pump livers.
Easy-to-Use Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion System
- Strong clinical evidence for benefits of oxygenated hypothermic perfusion
- Real-time monitoring of perfusate temperature
- No blood or blood products needed, reducing cost of perfusion
- Easy, quick, simple to setup
- Minimal nuisance alarms and quick reset – no alarm fatigue
