摘要
Heart transplantation continues to be limited by a paucity of donor organs despite innovations in organ procurement and organ preservation, greater willingness to accept marginal hearts (such as those from older donors with medical comorbidities such as diabetes and hypertension, left ventricular [LV] hypertrophy, and LV dysfunction), and use of hearts from donors who died of a drug overdose, donors with hepatitis C viremia, and donors after circulatory death. 1 Khush KK.

Circ Heart Fail. 2016; 9e002679 Crossref PubMed Scopus (59) Google Scholar These developments have expanded the donor pool and have changed perceptions and practices with respect to consideration of heart transplant donors. The goal of this focused report is to document the changes that have taken place in the adult heart transplant donor pool over the years and to identify important donor characteristics and transplant processes that influence post-transplant outcomes.
