The kidneys and livers are the most resilient to these periods of hypotension and hypoxemia. Lungs and heart have been recovered and successfully transplanted in general. Those organs are supported for some period with, through a process called normal thermodynamic regional perfusion that I think Dr. Guile was able to tell us a little bit about.
