Heart In A Box

A Breakthrough in Heart Preservation

The World’s Only Portable Heart Perfusion System

Heart transplantation programs around the world face significant challenges in transplantation volume, patient outcomes, and overall cost of patient care.  Progress in surmounting these challenges has been limited by the current cold storage heart preservation method.

TransMedics developed the OCS™ HEART system to overcome these challenges. This portable, warm perfusion and monitoring system is designed to

  1. Increase transplantation volume

  2. Improve patient outcomes

  3. Reduce cost of patient care

The OCS™ HEART is commercially available in Europe and Australia and is in clinical use in leading centers. The system is not available for commercial use in the U.S. It is under clinical investigation in the U.S.

Immediately After a Hospital Visit from The HeartBrothers

"Pat and Bob were living proof we would survive...that this was all part of our journey. After meeting the HeartBrothers, I remember Nick saying that when all this was over he would be a HeartBrother too. It made me smile because it showed me Nick had not given up hope despite how sick he was...he was thinking about our future."

- Michelle, Caregiver
