Monitoring Donor Lungs On A Perfusion Machine

Alaska rates for HCPCS 0495T

A clinician starts up and then monitors a circuit that keeps donor lungs warm, ventilated and perfused outside the body, assessing how well they work. Pressures, flows, gas exchange and lung stiffness are measured and recorded, and examinations such as a scope inspection of the airways or an X-ray may be done as part of the assessment. This covers the initial period of that monitoring.
