Ice Container
A molded thermoplastic
Ice Container with a removable lid is designed to be filled with a recommended mixture
of ice and water to provide a hypothermic temperature environment for the donor kidney.
With the Ice Container properly loaded, LifePort Kidney Transporter preserves kidneys hypothermically to the
same degree as conventional static
storage methods, even when powered off.
Control Panel
The Control Panel is located next to the Pump Deck. The panel can be accessed only when the Cover is
removed, which prevents inadvertent and unauthorized access to the controls. The left screen displays the
current pressure setpoint and the operational mode. The right screen displays user-entered information.
Outer Display
The Outer Display is a horizontal panel visible whether the Cover is in place or removed. It provides
information on operational parameters as well as additional information about the perfusion history.
The display can be toggled between numerical values and trend lines of values for flow and resistance.
The temperature display shows the temperatures of the Ice Container as read at a sensor located near the Ice
Container and the temperature of the perfusate as read by a sensor within the Bubble Trap.
