The demand for organ preservation devices is driven by the critical need to improve the viability and success rates of organ transplants. With the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases such as kidney failure, liver cirrhosis, and cardiovascular conditions, the need for effective organ preservation methods has never been greater. Additionally, the rising number of organ transplants, coupled with the shortage of available organs, underscores the importance of advanced preservation technologies to extend the life and quality of donated organs.

ScubaTx is developing a range of organ-specific disposable cassettes for our organ-agnostic base unit that are designed to improve utilization and extend the organ viability window

  • Heart

    Time-critical and highly sensitive to ischemia, the heart requires optimal preservation conditions. Our system aims to provides consistent thermal regulation and oxygenated perfusion through persufflation, reducing myocardial damage and enabling longer transport windows without compromising function.

  • Lung

    Lung grafts are particularly vulnerable to oxygen deprivation and edema. Our platform’s precise temperature management and gaseous oxygen delivery via persufflation aims to help maintain alveolar structure, reduce inflammation, and improve post-transplant respiratory function.

  • Kidney

    Kidney transplantation outcomes are closely tied to the quality of organ preservation. Our platform uses advanced temperature control and oxygen persufflation aiming to reduce ischemic injury, maintain metabolic function, and extend preservation times - supporting better graft function and post-transplant recovery.

  • Liver

    Livers are highly sensitive to cold ischemia. Our preservation system aims to deliver controlled oxygenation and temperature regulation, helping to stabilize cellular integrity and minimize reperfusion injury. This allows for improved graft viability and expanded use of marginal donors.

  • Pancreas

    The pancreas is prone to preservation-related injury due to its fragile vasculature and exocrine activity. Our platform’s controlled temperature and oxygen aims to help mitigate inflammation and thrombosis risk, improving graft survival and enabling more effective pancreas transplants.

Our platform is design to meet the demanding needs of our customers

  • Hospitals and Transplant Centers

    These institutions are at the forefront of organ transplantation and rely heavily on preservation devices to ensure the success of transplant procedures.

  • Organ Procurement Organizations (OPOs)

    OPOs are responsible for the recovery and transportation of organs, making them key users of preservation technologies.

  • Research Institutions

    These organizations use preservation devices for studies aimed at improving organ preservation methods and outcomes.
