Detailed Description
GUARDIAN-Lung is a post-market, observational registry of adult and pediatric lung transplant recipient patients whose donor lungs was preserved and transported within the LUNGguard. The data is being collected retrospectively from medical records of patients already transplanted before the initiation of the registry and any new patients who meet the eligibility criteria.
About 500 male and female subjects (including pediatric patients) meeting the study inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled into the study at about 5 clinical sites.
Candidates that fit the eligibility criteria and have had their donor lungs transported with a Paragonix product or a standard of care method can be enrolled. The baseline characteristics and outcomes of the two groups will be compared.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
LungGuard patients Patients whose donor lung(s) was transported with the LungGuard device. |
Device: LungGuard
The LUNGguard is an FDA cleared and is a CE-marked medical device intended to be used for the static hypothermic preservation of lungs during transportation and eventual transplantation into a recipient using cold storage solutions indicated for use with the lungs. The intended organ storage time for the LUNGguard is up to 8 hours.
|
Standard Transport Patients Patients whose donor lung(s) was transported with a method other than the LungGuard |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of subjects with Primary Graft Dysfunction (PGD) [Post-transplant through 1 year post]
The number of subjects that develop PGD after transplant
- Number of subjects with rejection [Post-transplant through 1 year post]
Subjects that show signs to rejection after transplant
- Survival [Post-transplant through 1 year post]
patient survival post-transplant
- ICU Length of Stay [Transplant through 1 year post-transplant]
Days the subject spent the ICU post-transplant
- Hospital Length of Stay [Transplant through 1 year post-transplant]
Days the subject was in the hospital in total after transplant
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of rehospitalizations [post-transplant through 1 year]
The number of times the subject was readmitted to the hospital after discharged post-transplant
- How long subjects needed mechanical support [pre-transplant through 48 hours post-transplant]
Amount of time (minutes) mechanical support (EMCO and ventilator) was needed pre and post transplant
