NRP-DCD A New Process for Saving Lives

The Gifted Life: Organ, Tissue and Eye Donation Podcast

Show Notes: Welcome to a special two-part series on Normothermic Regional Perfusion (NRP)! We have a true pioneer and expert in the field of transplantation joining us. Dr. Anji Wall, Abdominal Transplant Surgeon and Bioethicist at Baylor, Scott and White Health in Dallas, will be sharing with us the groundbreaking advancements in organ recovery and transplantation through the use of NRP in donors after circulatory death (DCD). This revolutionary process has been making incredible strides in saving more lives nationwide. Not only does it offer hope for patients in need of organ transplants, but it also provides additional clarity and solace to the families of donors during their time of loss. We are excited to have Dr. Wall here to shed light on this fascinating topic. In our Mental Health Moment we chat about the differences between emotions and feelings, and honor hero Amjad Ottallah.
