[Optimum perfusion pressure, renal resistance and oxygen consumption of kidney in hypothermic pulsating perfusion].
36 dog kidneys were perfused with different perfusion pressures (between 15 and 60 mm Hg) for 72 hrs and then transplanted. Hypothermic human albumin was the perfusion fluid. Kidneys perfused with a flow rate of 0.8 ml/g/min (21 mm Hg mean perfusion pressure) showed the smallest increase in kidney weight and the best function after transplantation. Renal vascular resistance was independent of the level of the perfusion pressure and renal oxygen consumption was independent of the applied flow rate.
