Pilot Program to Harvest Kidneys from People who Die Outside of Hospitals in Manhattan

This article details a new pilot program to increase the supply of kidneys available for transplantation. It details how kidneys can be harvested up to 50 minutes after the heart stops beating. Kudos to the U. S. Department of Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) for providing a 1.5 millions dollar grant for this pilot program. Lets see what happens...innovative...hopefully, it will also be successful.
