System and Method for an Ex Vivo Body Organ Electrosurgical Research Device

摘要

The present disclosure is directed to a system and method for inflating and perfusing a body organ. The system and method includes a housing, a vacuum source, a perfusion pump and a temperature control module. The housing defines a cavity for containing an ex vivo body organ. In embodiments, the housing may include a cover. The housing includes one or more apertures that are defined therethrough and configured to mechanically interface with one or more sensors. The vacuum source is configured to inflate and deflate the body organ. The perfusion pump is configured to circulate a solution into the body organ. The temperature control module is operatively connected to one or more heating elements and one or more cooling elements. In addition, the temperature control module is configured to regulate the temperature of the body organ within the housing.
