  • Single-center retrospective analysis of 125 donor hearts from brain death donation and to explore the use of marginal donor hearts

    ObjectiveTo analyze the assessment and maintenance of 125 donor hearts from brain death donation and explore the use of marginal donor hearts.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the evaluation, maintenance, operation and follow-up results of 125 donor hearts from April 2016 to August 2019. There were 98 males and 27 females at age of 6-50 (36.0±2.4) years.ResultsTwelve donor hearts were discarded due to unqualified evaluation after heart harvest. 113 patients of heart transplantation were performed with a double lumen venous anastomosis manner. The mean time of cold ischemia was 220.1±6.7 min. Four patients died within 30 days after operation. Postoperative right ventricular assist circulation was performed in 4 patients, intra-aortic balloon counterattack (IABP) in 12 patients and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in 12 patients. Marginal donors included 15 hepatitis B antigen positive donor hearts, 2 tricuspid regurgitation, 1 mitral regurgitation, 5 coronary calcification, 4 myocardial stunning and 2 severe weight mismatch. The results of follow-up (2 years) after marginal donor heart transplantation were satisfactory.ConclusionImproving the assessment and maintenance of donor hearts can improve the utilization rate of the heart, and the marginal donor heart transplantation needs long-term follow-up.
