OCS Heart System

OCS Heart System: The TransMedics® OCS Heart System is a portable system available for ex-vivo maintenance of a donor heart in a metabolically active and beating state. The OCS Heart System's innovative technology was designed to comprehensively overcome the historical limitations of cold storage. The OCS Heart System expands the utilization of donor hearts by enabling the use of donor hearts deemed unsuitable for procurement and transplantation at initial evaluation due to limitations of cold static cardioplegic preservation.

Study summary

The objective of this post-approval registry is to provide additional real-world evidence of the performance of the OCS Heart System to preserve DBD and DCD donor hearts.
