Despite significant advances, rejection and cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) remain impediments to long-term survival. Early detection is paramount to treatment of both rejection and CAV. Therefore, heart transplant (HT) patients are routinely monitored for signs of graft dysfunction.
Cardiac transplantation is considered the gold-standard treatment option for patients suffering from end-stage heart failure refractory to maximum medical therapy. A major determinant of graft function and recipient survival is a comprehensive evaluation of the donor allograft.
Sex-influenced cardiac MRI measures of myocardial tissue and function are as follows: Female HTx recipients demonstrated increased precontrast T1 (P = .002) and reduced systolic peak long-axis velocities (P = .015).
The proposed donor heart selection guidelines provide evidence-based and expert-consensus recom-mendations for the selection of donor hearts following brain death. These recommendations were com-piled by an international panel of experts based on an extensive literature review. J Heart Lung Transplant 2023;42:7−29
19 Ιαν 2022 · An analysis of 60,584 patients in the UNOS registry studying the effect of donor-recipient sex mismatch on heart transplant outcomes showed that male recipients of female donor hearts had a 10% higher mortality rate than did male recipients of male hearts .
