Abstract
BACKGROUND Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) allows for the assessment and resuscitation of ex-vivo human livers prior to transplantation. Commercially available NMP systems are closed circuits that accumulate metabolic waste and cytokines over time, potentially limiting organ preservation times. Dialysis has been proposed as a method to remove waste and excess fluid from such systems. This study aimed to demonstrate the utility of integrating dialysis into a commercially available system by quantifying solute removal. METHODS A dialysis filter was attached in parallel to a commercially available liver perfusion system. Three livers declined for transplantation were split before undergoing long-term NMP with blood using the modified system. During perfusion, dialysate flow rates were set in the range of 100-600 mL/h for short periods of time. At each flow rate, perfusate and spent dialysate samples were collected and analyzed for solute clearance. RESULTS The addition of dialysis to a commercial NMP system removed water-soluble waste and helped regulate electrolyte concentrations. Interleukin-6 was successfully removed from the perfusate. Solute clearance was proportional to dialysate flow rate. A guide for our perfusion setup was created for the appropriate selection of dialysis flow rates and duration based on real-time perfusate composition. CONCLUSIONS Dialysis circuits can efficiently remove waste and regulate perfusate composition, and can be easily incorporated to improve the performance of commercially available systems. Quantification of the effect of dialysis on perfusate composition enables refined dialysis control to optimize electrolyte profiles and avoid the over- or under-correction of key solutes.
