title: [Possibilities of the use of perfluorocarbon emulsions in prolonged storage of a donor heart].
abstract: The authors studied the possibility of prolonged (24-hour) storage of the myocardium by means of the Soviet-produced emulsion based on perfluoro-methyl-cyclohexylpiperidine (PFMCP). It was established that the functional condition of the myocardium is maintained on a good level by hypothermal perfusion in which the perfusion medium is a gas-transporting perfluorocarbon emulsion with hydroxyethyl starch. The successful use of the PFMCP emulsion in prolonged heart storage is linked not only with the gas-transporting and rheological properties but also with the membrane stabilizing effect of the emulsion and its components.
