Normothermic Regional Perfusion (NRP) is an advanced donor care approach that restores circulation to donor organs in situ prior to recovery, helping reduce warm ischemic injury and improve transplant suitability. Our team supports both in-situ NRP and complementary machine perfusion workflows, delivering individualized circuit configurations, advanced device integration, and structured donor management support across neonatal, pediatric, adolescent, and adult donor populations.
Normothermic Regional Perfusion (NRP) is an in situ organ-recovery technique that reestablishes oxygenated blood flow to thoraco/abdominal organs after circulatory determination of death. By restoring physiologic perfusion before organ procurement, NRP helps preserve organ viability, improve transplant outcomes, and expand donor utilization.
NRP may be complemented by machine perfusion, which maintains organs outside the body after recovery using specialized perfusion devices. Together, in situ and machine perfusion strategies extend preservation time, enhance assessment capabilities, and increase transplant suitability.
Our Donor Care team assists with comprehensive NRP services to maximize organ recovery, improve organ placement outcomes, and support Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs) at every stage of the NRP process.
We offer individualized NRP circuits for neonatal, pediatric, adolescent, and adult cases, ensuring that each donor scenario receives equipment configuration and clinical expertise aligned with the specific physiologic profile.
