INDICATIONS FOR USE
LifePort Kidney Transporter (LKT) system is intended to be used for the continuous hypothermic machine perfusion of
kidneys for the preservation, transportation and eventual transplantation into a recipient.
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable SealRing Cannula is used on explanted kidneys when the vessel to be
perfused ends with an aortic patch or similar condition.
The complete LifePort Kidney Transporter system is comprised of the following components:
• LifePort Kidney Transporter (LKT100P/LKT101P)
• LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Perfusion Circuit (LKT201)
• LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Sterile Drape (LKT300)
• LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Cannula (CAN/UCAN)
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Prepare LifePort Kidney Transporter and LifePort Kidney Transporter Perfusion Circuit as described in their Instructions
for Use. Patches that contain multiple arteries may be able to be placed into one LifePort Kidney Transporter
Disposable SealRing Cannula. Otherwise, refer to LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Coupler Instructions for Use
to cannulate multiple vessels.
CAUTION: Where noted, perform the following procedure on an aseptic field using aseptic technique.
1. Using standard aseptic technique, introduce LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable SealRing Cannula
onto the sterile field.
2. Using standard aseptic technique, unhook the straps and open LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable
SealRing Cannula.
3. Using standard aseptic technique, slide the aortic patch through the center of the cannula ring.
4. Using standard aseptic technique, lay patch flat, making sure that the tissue covers the entire cannula
ring. If necessary, instruments may be used to temporarily hold the tissue in place until LifePort Kidney
Transporter Disposable SealRing Cannula is secure.
5. Using standard aseptic technique, close LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable SealRing Cannula,
securing the tissue between the two cannula halves.
6. Using standard aseptic technique, wrap each strap around both cannula halves and secure the straps
to their posts.
7. Using standard aseptic technique, place the kidney in the Kidney Cradle and snap LifePort Kidney
Transporter Disposable SealRing Cannula into the Cannula Mount.
NOTE: If perfusing multiple vessels, only the main vessel cannula shall be connected to the Cannula Mount.
8. Using standard aseptic technique, adjust the height of the Cannula Mount and rotation of the cannula
to comfortably position the vessel.
9. Using standard aseptic technique, visually inspect the vessel, ensuring there are no twists or
occlusions.
10. Using standard aseptic technique, secure the Mesh Organ Restraint over the kidney in the Kidney
Cradle, allowing for slight swelling while being perfused.
NOTE: Follow the procedure in the LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Perfusion Circuit Instructions for
Use on how to place the kidney and Kidney Cradle within LifePort Kidney Transporter Disposable Perfusion
Circuit.
