Conceptual framework of EVLP. EVLP extends the time to evaluate and
recondition lungs, with the intention of increasing the availability of
previously marginal lungs. Common variables used in the evaluation of donor
lungs are displayed, though may vary by institution.
PVR = pulmonary vascular resistance; Pap = Peak airway pressure; Cstat =
Static compliance; Cdyn = Dynamic compliance; P/F =
PaO2/FiO2 ratio
