Lung inflation with hydrogen during the cold ischemia phase decreases lung graft injury in rats

New Hope for Lung Transplant Patients: How Hydrogen Inhalation Can Reduce Graft Injury

A recent study found that lung inflation with hydrogen during the cold ischemia phase can decrease lung graft injury in rats. This discovery could lead to new treatments for lung transplant patients and improve the success rate of lung transplants. By reducing graft injury, doctors may be able to reduce complications and improve patient outcomes.
