Improved Survival After Heart Transplantation in Patients With Bridge to Transplant in the Recent Era: A 17-year Single-center Experience
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 05/29/09
Osaki S et al. - Post-transplant survival has improved in recent BTT patients. Indeed, recent outcome for OHT after BTT has become equivalent to that for OHT without VAD. These data suggest that advances in device technology and the institutional multidisciplinary program have improved survival and allow BTT candidates to have an outcome equivalent to that of non-VAD patients in the recent era.
