H2HUBB TAKEAWAY
This narrative review examined the authors' new method that enables H₂ gas to be easily transported to emergency settings and quickly injected into an organ preservation solution at the site of donor organ procurement have been described. Mounting evidence indicates that hydrogen gas (H₂) is a versatile therapeutic agent, even at very low, non-combustible concentrations. The reviewed evidence supports molecular hydrogen's therapeutic potential. Additional well-designed studies are needed to clarify clinical safety and effectiveness.
