Abstracts to be presented at the 2025 ISHLT Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions will emphasize the expanding clinical evidence demonstrating the positive post-transplant impact of Paragonix's advanced organ preservation devices on patient outcomes.

WALTHAM, MA. April 2, 2025 – Paragonix Technologies, Inc., a pioneer in organ transplant products and services, is honored to announce the forthcoming release of new clinical data supporting the use of FDA-cleared and CE marked controlled hypothermic preservation devices and transplant services. These presentations compare and analyze post-transplant outcomes of patients, presented by a multi-center panel of clinical investigators representing the GUARDIAN Clinical Registries at the 45th ISHLT Annual Meeting and Scientific Sessions, located at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, MA from April 27-30, 2025.

Clinical investigators will be sharing data and research related to Paragonix heart and lung devices (Paragonix SherpaPak®, BAROguard®, and LUNGguard®) in five oral presentations and four posters throughout the conference, including:
