EasiSlush® Sodium Chloride Solution for Sterile Slush Preparation (BTLE-1250) is intended for topical cooling of in situ, abdominal donor organs during intraoperative recovery from the donor. It is also intended to maintain organ hypothermia during storage and transport to the transplant recipient. EasiSlush® Sodium Chloride Solution for Sterile Slush Preparation (BTLE-1250) is used to establish, and maintain hypothermia of donor organs during recovery, storage, and transport. It is also indicated for use during open surgical procedures such as cardiovascular, abdominal, and transplant surgeries. Organ Recovery Prior to organ recovery, EasiSlush® Sodium Chloride Solution for Sterile Slush Preparation (BTLE-1250) is delivered to the open peritoneal cavity of the donor to assist in creating hypothermia by topically cooling external surfaces of organs for recovery. During organ recovery, if ice crystals are no longer visible, the temperature of the saline solution will begin to rise and additional slushed solution may be delivered per established transplant team procedures. (Temperature rise may be assessed with temperature probes, being careful that the probe is measuring the solution and is not in contact with the organ). Organ Storage/Transport For organ storage/transport, EasiSlush® Sodium Chloride Solution for Sterile Slush Preparation (BTLE-1250) may be used to topically cool external surfaces of a sterile, sealed, primary organ bag containing chilled preservation solution and the organ. In this application, the slushed solution may be added to a secondary bag or to a tertiary hard container to surround the primary organ bag. Once bagged, the organ can be placed in a bed of non-sterile ice in an insulated transport container, which is then closed. Actual use should follow standard practices of the OPO or hospital for transporting and storing specific types of donor organs using sterile, slush solutions. Surgical Procedure During surgical procedures, EasiSlush® Sodium Chloride Solution for Sterile Slush Preparation (BTLE-1250) is delivered to assist in creating hypothermia by topically cooling external surfaces of organs. During the procedure, if ice crystals are no longer visible, the temperature of the saline solution will begin to rise and additional slushed solution may be delivered per established surgical team procedures.

The KIDNEY ASSIST-transport is intended to be used for the pulsatile hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion of kidneys for the preservation, transport and eventual transplantation into a recipient.

The KIDNEY ASSIST-transport system of Organ Assist Products B.V. is a portable pump system that continuously allows hypothermic pulsatile perfusion of donor kidneys with oxygenated preservation solution during transport from donor to recipient in transplantation procedures. The system consists of the reusable KIDNEY ASSISTtransport device and a disposable KIDNEY ASSIST-transport perfusion set. The characteristics of the KIDNEY ASSIST-transport are: - Pulsatile oxygenated hypothermic machine perfusion of donor kidneys ● - Transportable hypothermic machine perfusion technique - Hypothermic preservation and reconditioning device - Improved preservation compared to cold storage in DBD, ECD and DCD - Easy to install disposable perfusion set The KIDNEY ASSIST-transport device is a thermo isolated enclosure wherein the kidneys are cooled passively by ice and a separate compartment holding the electronics, batteries and a dedicated medical oxygen cylinder. The device has sufficient battery power, holds enough oxygen and ice for an application period of 24 hours of hypothermic oxygenated perfusion. Pulsatile perfusion is generated by a rotary pump driven by an electromotor and is pressure controlled. User-friendly firmware allows the user to change perfusion parameters. Settings and results of the perfusion measurements are numerically displayed on the top of the enclosure. The single-use disposable KIDNEY ASSIST-transport perfusion set contains an easy to install preassembled perfusion cartridge for use in combination with the KIDNEY ASSIST-transport device. The purpose of the KIDNEY ASSIST-transport Perfusion Set is to perfuse human organs to be transplanted with an approved pump perfusion solution. Its set contains a reservoir, kidney holder, cannula, oxygenator, pump head, pressure sensor and compatible tubing. Pulsatile perfusion is maintained by the centrifugal pump head, pulsating the perfusion solution from the reservoir through the oxygenator to the kidney holder in the reservoir. Oxygenation is performed by the hollow fiber membrane oxygenator which facilitates the gas exchange with the perfusion solution. All kidneys will be perfused with University of Wisconsin Machine Perfusion Solution (UW-MP). KIDNEY ASSIST-transport allows transportable machine perfusion to bridge the timespan between procurement and transplantation of kidneys.
