US 2026/0076360 A1 · Organ Perfusion Machine

Abstract

An organ perfusion apparatus includes a chamber that is open to an atmosphere and houses an organ, an inflow channel that receives a perfusion fluid to be sent to the organ, and an outflow channel connectable, at one end, to an inlet blood vessel of the organ for sending the perfusion fluid received by the inflow channel toward the inlet blood vessel. The chamber includes a connecting port configured to be openable and closable and configured to be connectable to the inflow channel. In the organ perfusion apparatus, a connector of the inflow channel which receives the perfusion fluid is connected to the connecting port to configure an open system circuit, and the connecting port is closed and a connector of the inflow channel which receives the perfusion fluid is connected to an outflow blood vessel of the organ to configure a closed system circuit.
