In this UNOS Insights article, learn the story behind Organ Recovery Systems and how LifePort^® Liver Transporter was developed from the success of LifePort Kidney Transporter.

“A company focused on organ preservation products and services; Organ Recovery Systems was formed to develop the interventional hypothermia-inspired organ transporter concept. In the early 2000s the company’s LifePort Kidney Transporter, a transportable device for hypothermic machine perfusion, or HMP, gained Food and Drug Administration clearance. Unlike normothermic preservation, which preserves organs at normal physiological temperature, or static cold storage, which chills organ in a preservation solution in an ice box, hypothermic machine perfusion pumps a preservation solution continuously through the organ at temperatures between 1 and 10 degrees Celsius.”

United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is the private, non-profit organization that manages the organ transplant system in the United States under contract with the federal government.
