Summary

To protect kidney function during the transplantation process by inducing mild hypothermia in the deceased organ donor before organs are recovered

Conditions

  • Deceased Organ Donor
  • Mild Hypothermia
  • Renal Function

Interventions

OTHER

Hypothermia

The intervention will take place after consent for donation and research has been obtained and hemodynamic stability has been achieved (mean arterial blood pressure \> 60 mmHg for more than one hour without an increase in vasopressors). Organ donors in the experimental group will either be actively warmed or allowed to spontaneously reach a body temperature of 34 °C.
