Maximize your potential at TransMedics, Inc. www.TransMedics.com TransMedics Group, Inc. (TMDX) is a commercial-stage medical technology company transforming organ transplant therapy for end-stage organ failure patients across multiple disease states. We developed the Organ Care System, or the OCS™, to replace a decades-old standard of care that we believe is significantly limiting access to life-saving transplant therapy for hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide. Our innovative OCS technology replicates many aspects of the organ’s natural living and functioning environment outside of the human body. As such, the OCS represents a paradigm shift that transforms organ preservation for transplantation from a static state to a dynamic environment that enables new capabilities, including organ optimization and assessment. In concert with our OCS technology platform and OCS Connect™ app, which enables TransMedics and transplant clinicians to efficiently track, coordinate & communicate resource logistics for donor organs procured and maintained on OCS™, TMDX launched its National OCS™ Program (NOP) in 2022: 16 regional hubs across the U.S. staffed by a dispersed workforce of experienced, on-staff OCS Perfusion Specialists & Cardiothoracic and Abdominal Donor Procurement Surgeons. These resources are mobilized on-demand via our own dedicated ground & aviation transportation logistics network, to retrieve and deliver allocated donor organs from anywhere in the U.S. – aiding U.S. Transplant Centers in bidding farewell to the time & distance limitations of cold storage & expand the pool of viable donor organs for their transplant recipients.
