Improved 2-year heart transplant survival with moderate hypothermic donor heart preservation in the GUARDIAN heart registry

Conference Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation · April 1, 2026 Background Multiple advanced preservation technologies are now available and have demonstrated utility in organ assessment and preservation. The Paragonix SherpaPak Cardiac Transport System (SCTS) has become the most common method of static preservation, d ... Full text Cite

Durability of porcine and pericardial prostheses in tricuspid valve replacement.

Conference JTCVS Open · October 2024 OBJECTIVE: Biologic valves dominate tricuspid valve replacement, yet data on different valve types are lacking. We compare the survival and durability of porcine and pericardial tricuspid prostheses. METHODS: A retrospective review of consecutive patients ... Full text Link to item Cite

Metabolomic profiling during ex situ normothermic perfusion before heart transplantation defines patterns of substrate utilization and correlates with markers of allograft injury.

Conference J Heart Lung Transplant · May 2024 BACKGROUND: Cardiac metabolism is altered in heart failure and ischemia-reperfusion injury states. We hypothesized that metabolomic profiling during ex situ normothermic perfusion before heart transplantation (HT) would lend insight into myocardial substra ... Full text Link to item Cite

Infarct exclusion repair of postmyocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture with a hybrid patch and septal occluder device compared with patch only.

Conference JTCVS Tech · December 2023 OBJECTIVE: We developed a hybrid technique for repairing post-myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal defect (VSD) that combines infarct exclusion with patch and a nitinol-mesh septal occluder device (SOD) to provide a scaffold to support the damaged ...

Does deeper hypothermia reduce the risk of acute kidney injury after circulatory arrest for aortic arch surgery?

Conference Eur J Cardiothorac Surg · July 30, 2021 OBJECTIVES: The impact of hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) temperature on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) has not been evaluated. This study examined the association between circulatory arrest temperatures and AKI in patients undergoing proxima ... Full text Link to item Cite

Successful Gene Delivery to Cardiac Allograft with Adeno-Associated Viral Vector Using Ex Vivo Storage Perfusion Platform

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: Cardiac gene therapy remains limited by inefficient transgene delivery with currently available methods (intravenous infusion, transcatheter coronary artery infusion, direct myocardial injection). We previously demonstrated in a porcine heterotopi ... Full text Cite

Impact of Tricuspid Valve Repair for Moderate Tricuspid Regurgitation at the Time of Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation on the Occurrence of Right Heart Failure

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: Significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients undergoing durable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation has been associated with increased incidence of right heart failure (RHF). There is great surgical practice variability rela ... Full text Cite

EUROMACS-RHF Risk Score and 3D Echocardiography as Predictors of Right Heart Failure after Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: Right heart failure (RHF) after LVAD implantation is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Recently, the EUROMACS-RHF risk score was developed to predict postoperative RHF in this setting. In a single-center analysis, we assessed th ... Full text Cite

Pre-Formed Donor-Specific Antibodies Impact Long Term Survival of Heart Transplants

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: We previously reported that heart transplant (HTx) recipients with pre-formed, anti-HLA antibodies at low titer had one-year survival that was comparable to patients without any anti-HLA antibodies. As a result, we defined unacceptable HLA antigen ... Full text Cite

More Money and More Miles: The Hidden Costs of Donor Procurement with the New Heart Allocation System

Conference The Journal of heart and lung transplantation : the official publication of the International Society for Heart Transplantation · April 1, 2020 PURPOSE: In October 2018, the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) implemented extensive changes to the adult heart allocation policy. These changes were developed to better stratify medically urgent patients and provide more equitable geographic distri ... Full text Cite

Simultaneous transcarotid artery revascularization with flow reversal and coronary artery bypass grafting: A novel hybrid technique.

Conference J Vasc Surg Cases Innov Tech · December 2019 Optimal management of concomitant coronary artery disease and carotid artery stenosis remains unknown. Current treatment strategies for patients with significant dual disease burden include simultaneous carotid endarterectomy and coronary artery bypass gra ... Full text Link to item Cite
