XPS™ to Germany

The University Hospital in Essen, Germany has decided to acquire the Xvivo Perfusion system, XPS™. This is the second XPS™ to a German hospital. It is estimated that delivery and installation of the XPS™ will take place in January 2016.

The XPS™ is the only system on the market for Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion (EVLP) that is approved on all major markets, including US approval by the FDA. The XPS™ system gives the user the flexibility to perform evaluation of lungs for transplantation using a standardized and simplified procedure. The XPS™ has achieved good clinical results when used at leading clinics in the USA and Europe. In Europe, four clinics will have the XPS-system, whereof two clinics in Germany. In total, XVIVO Perfusion will have installed 21 XPS™ globally and the company notes a continued high interest for the XPS™ in Europe and the US.

“We are very pleased that the clinic in Essen, which is one of the most important clinics in Germany, now starts to use XPS™ to facilitate EVLP," says Magnus Nilsson, CEO of XVIVO Perfusion.
