Background
Transplantation of hearts retrieved from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors is an evolving clinical practice.Objectives
The purpose of this study is to provide an update on the authors’ Australian clinical program and discuss lessons learned since performing the world’s first series of distantly procured DCD heart transplants.Methods
The authors report their experience of 23 DCD heart transplants from 45 DCD donor referrals since 2014. Donor details were collected using electronic donor records (Donate Life, Australia) and all recipient details were collected from clinical notes and electronic databases at St. Vincent’s Hospital.Results
Hearts were retrieved from 33 of 45 DCD donors. A total of 12 donors did not progress to circulatory arrest within the pre-specified timeframe. Eight hearts failed to meet viability criteria during normothermic machine perfusion, and 2 hearts were declined due to machine malfunction. A total of 23 hearts were transplanted between July 2014 and April 2018. All recipients had successful implantation, with mechanical circulatory support utilized in 9 cases. One case requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation subsequently died on the sixth post-operative day, representing a mortality of 4.4% over 4 years with a total follow-up period of 15,500 days for the entire cohort. All surviving recipients had normal cardiac function on echocardiogram and no evidence of acute rejection on discharge. All surviving patients remain in New York Heart Association functional class I with normal biventricular function.Conclusions
DCD heart transplant outcomes are excellent. Despite a higher requirement for mechanical circulatory support for delayed graft function, primarily in recipients with ventricular assist device support, overall survival and rejection episodes are comparable to outcomes from contemporary brain-dead donors. 相似文献2.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to determine the role of T1 mapping in identifying cardiac allograft rejection.BackgroundEndomyocardial biopsy (EMBx), the current gold standard to diagnose cardiac allograft rejection, is associated with potentially serious complications. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)–based T1 mapping detects interstitial edema and fibrosis, which are important markers of acute and chronic rejection. Therefore, T1 mapping can potentially diagnose cardiac allograft rejection noninvasively.MethodsPatients underwent CMR within 24 h of EMBx. T1 maps were acquired at 1.5-T. EMBx-determined rejection was graded according to International Society of Heart and Lung Transplant (ISHLT) criteria.ResultsOf 112 biopsies with simultaneous CMR, 60 were classified as group 0 (ISHLT grade 0), 35 as group 1 (ISHLT grade 1R), and 17 as group 2 (2R, 3R, clinically diagnosed rejection, antibody-mediated rejection). Native T1 values in patients with grade 0 biopsies and left ventricular ejection fraction >60% (983 ± 42 ms; 95% confidence interval: 972 to 994 ms) were comparable to values in nontransplant healthy control subjects (974 ± 45 ms; 95% confidence interval: 962 to 987 ms). T1 values were significantly higher in group 2 (1,066 ± 78 ms) versus group 0 (984 ± 42 ms; p = 0.0001) and versus group 1 (1,001 ± 54 ms; p = 0.001). After excluding patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate <50 ml/min/m2, there was a moderate correlation of log-transformed native T1 with high-sensitivity troponin T (r = 0.54, p < 0.0001) and pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (r = 0.67, p < 0.0001). Using a T1 cutoff value of 1,029 ms, the sensitivity, specificity, and negative predictive value were 93%, 79%, and 99%, respectively.ConclusionsMyocardial tissue characterization with T1 mapping displays excellent negative predictive capacity for the noninvasive detection of cardiac allograft rejection and holds promise to reduce substantially the EMBx requirement in cardiac transplant rejection surveillance. 相似文献
