Beyond rewarming time: graft thermometry and cooling technologies in robot-assisted kidney transplantation-a scoping review.

Article No results yet Peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This is a review of ways to keep a donor kidney cool during robot-assisted transplant surgery. Keeping the kidney cold while it is placed may protect it, and the review surveys tools to measure and control the temperature. It is a summary of methods, not a study with patient results yet.
