Eight Hours of Cold Static Storage with Adenosine and Lidocaine (Adenocaine) Heart Preservation Solutions: Toward Therapeutic Suspended Animation
Our aim was to investigate the effects of 8 hours of cold static storage (4°C) using 2 normokalemic, polarizing adenosine-lidocaine (Adenocaine; Hibernation Therapeutics Global Ltd, Kilquade, Ireland) solutions and to compare their functional recovery with hearts preserved in gold standard histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (Custodiol-HTK; Essential Pharma, Newtown, Pa) and Celsior (Genzyme, Cambridge, Mass) solutions.
