METHODSTemperature sensors such as the SpyT, allow direct measurement of organ temperature processes during transportation as well as complete documentation and statistical evaluation. We tested the usual packing procedure following the ET transaction guidelines. Surprisingly, organ temperature was maintained at below 0 C in all packing procedures.A multicenter trial including the DSO areas of Bavaria and Berlin/Brandenburg was initiated. A measurement of the ice machines used in all German DSO areas at the beginning of the study showed a homogeneous crushed-ice temperature of 0.5 C. The average organ temperature during transportation (n 186) was below 2 C, and after 6 hours below 0 C, as previously verified experimentally.
