CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is indicated for perfusion and flushing of donor kidneys, liver, pancreas and heart prior to removal from the donor or immediately after removal from the donor. The solution is left in the organ vasculature during hypothermic storage and transportation to the patient. CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is not indicated for continuous machine perfusion of donor organs.

The CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is intended for perfusion and flushing donor kidney, liver, heart, and pancreas prior to removal from the donor and for preserving these organs during hypothermic storage and transport to the recipient. CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is based on the principle of inactivating organ function by withdrawal of extracellular sodium and calcium, together with intensive buffering of the extracellular space by means of histidine/histidine HCI, so as to prolong the period for which the organs will tolerate interruption of blood and oxygen supply. Only a small portion of the osmolality of the CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is due to the sodium and potassium. The composition of HTK is similar to that of extracellular fluid. All of the components of the CUSTODIOL® HTK solution occur naturally in the body. The CUSTODIOL® HTK solution is relatively low in potassium concentration so that residual solution in the transplanted organ poses no danger to the recipient. This is particularly important in orqans that take up relatively large amounts of the perfusate, which may find its way into the recipient's circulation. The CUSTODIOL® HTK solution has a low viscosity, even at low temperatures. This characteristic assures rapid flow rates during initial perfusion, allowing the organ to be quickly cooled.
