8. Unified donor retrieval teams from 1 st April with a desire to share NHBD kidneys (NHS BT) Unification means that there is a need for consensus: How long do we wait after withdrawal of support? Should we use an Apnoea score? Machine versus static cold storage? Is prolonged cold ischaemia safe for DCD/NHBD kidneys? Which kidneys can be shared?

9. How long to wait after withdrawal?

11. New England Organ bank: Oct 99-April 06 143 kidneys 39 livers *Small numbers, best donors, short time between extubation and death but suggestion that primary function in kidneys better if hypotensive period is short: (confirmed with composite end points of the liver) though no difference to long term outcome for the kidney *NB Dominic Summers GFR DCD versus DBD equivalent though higher at 3/12

30. In summary DCD versus DBD kidneys same outcome survival/gfr of MIII donors Agonal period- how long- short for liver, kidney can be long (with DGF but no consequence on long term outcome) To minimise excessive call outs a form of ‘apnoea’ test could be employed by a national retrieval team

31. In summary-2 Machine perfusion for kidneys after NHBD not essential for MIII donors Outcome improved by MPS according to the European trial Non use rate of kidneys is higher with static storage of the order of 10% Cold ischaemia should be minimised for kidneys particularly NHBD

32. Sharing NHBD kidneys, which donor? which kidney? Meeting 27.4.10 Standard donor: donors 10-39yrs, no hypertension, no CVA, terminal serum creatinine< 133μmol/l Short agonal period (short period whilst BP<60)- (max ?1 hour- same as liver) Short period asystolle to perfusion (max ?30mins) Aortic cannulation rather than femoral Kidney pale and well flushed on retrieval Experienced retrieval surgeon UW flush after initial low viscosity flush Marshals or HTK Machine perfusion would give some security to the receiving centre Transplant unit should not be too far from donor unit Recipient transplanted with a virtual crossmatch to minimise cold ischaemia

33. Non sharing of NHBD kidneys but national retrieval team: Meeting 27.4.10 All other donors than standard: (older donors, hypertension, CVA, terminal serum creatinine> 133μmol/l) Longer agonal period permitted ?4/5 hours Short period asystolle to perfusion (max ?45mins) Aortic or femoral cannulation but aortic preferable Local judgement as to kidney use Machine perfusion or static according to local preference as local unit will be using them Minimise cold ischaemia ?virtual crossmatch
