About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Paragonix Technologies Celebrates Clinical Milestone of over 2,000 Organs Preserved and Transported for Transplantation

By: via Business Wire

Now over 1 in 5 Thoracic Organ Transplants are preserved using Paragonix Advanced Organ Preservation and Tracking Technology

Paragonix Technologies, Inc. is announcing a major milestone of preserving over 2,000 donor organs, providing transplant centers Advanced Organ Preservation (AOPT) technology and a nationwide clinical support network. Each of these technologies utilize first-of-its-kind preservation methods and have proven to be a major advancement over the current ice and cooler practice still used today. Paragonix devices combine clinically-proven, stable, hypothermic preservation technology with an extensive clinical support network, supplemented by innovative digital tools for complete control over organ tracking, monitoring, and reporting.1

“We are humbled and grateful to be part of transplant patients’ path to a new life while honoring the selfless gift of donor patients with our technology. Our portfolio of advanced organ preservation and tracking systems provides a safe and effective way for donor organs to be preserved, tracked, and transported to their destination,” said Dr. Lisa Anderson, CEO of Paragonix.

To mark this clinical milestone of over 2,000 donor organs being preserved, transported, and tracked using Paragonix devices, Paragonix is sharing some key contributions of its technology and the associated global clinical data and organ tracking efforts:

  • Paragonix clinical research partners have enrolled over 1,400 patients in the past 3 years from 22 transplant centers (heart, lung, and liver) to the GUARDIAN Series of Clinical Registries, collecting over 187,000 clinical data points.
  • Paragonix customers have downloaded over 1,200 data reports on donor organ procurements, providing detailed records of the organ preservation environment.
  • The Paragonix app has provided an estimated 800,000 data points related to donor organ transports.
  • The Paragonix team has provided in person support in over 800 donor organ procurements.

In the second quarter of 2022, 27% of all donor hearts transplanted in the U.S. have been preserved and transported using a Paragonix SherpaPak CTS.2 The Paragonix SherpaPak System is the most widely utilized FDA cleared and CE marked medical device for heart preservation and transport in the United States. Based on annual 2021 transplant data, 4 out of 5 of the largest heart transplant programs in the U.S. and 61 heart programs globally trust the Paragonix SherpaPak System to preserve, track, and transport critical donor hearts to their recipient donors.2 In a recent study regarding Paragonix’s flagship advanced preservation device, the Paragonix SherpaPak Cardiac Transport System, investigators noted a one-year survival rate of 96.4% in patients where the Paragonix system was used, translating to an increase of 8.7% (p=0.03) in one-year survival when compared to traditional ice transport.1

Combined with the LUNGguard™ Donor Lung Preservation System, Paragonix preservation devices have been used on 24% of all U.S. thoracic organ transplant cases in 2022.2 As with each of the devices, temperatures are monitored throughout the organ journey via the Bluetooth® connected Paragonix App. The LUNGguard™ Donor Lung Preservation System provides a secure transport system that provides predictable, repeatable, and measurable results.

In January, Paragonix launched the LIVERguard™ System, providing the abdominal market with access to advanced organ preservation. Like its predecessors, the LIVERguard™ System represents a fundamental advance over the use of ice and off-the-shelf coolers that have been the standard-of-care in organ transplantation for over 50 years. Recently, Paragonix announced the Expanded Adoption of their LIVERguard™ System at the 2022 American Transplant Congress.
