This study is exploring a new way to make more lungs available for transplant. Researchers have developed a special method called the "Lung uDCD Protocol" that uses positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) and extra oxygen to preserve lungs for about three hours after a person has died. This method could allow for organ donation in situations where it wasn't possible before. The study aims to see how safe and effective this protocol is by looking at how well the lungs are preserved, how many are successfully transplanted, and if there are any issues like severe primary graft dysfunction (PGD Grade III) within 72 hours after transplant. You might be able to join if you are an adult waiting for a lung transplant and are willing to participate in the research. The study plans to enroll 24 participants.
