Reduced incidence of hypertension after heterotopic cardiac transplantation compared with orthotopic cardiac transplantation
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to test the hypothesis that heterotopic heart transplant (HHT) patients have lower blood pressure than orthotopic cardiac transplant (OCT) patients because their native heart is involved in blood pressure homeostasis. BACKGROUND Hypertension occurs more frequently after OCT than after liver or lung transplantation, suggesting that transplantation of the heart ...
متن کاملSupraventricular tachycardia after orthotopic cardiac transplantation.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to define the incidence, mechanisms, and management, including catheter ablation, of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in a large series of patients after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). BACKGROUND Supraventricular arrhythmias are frequently encountered after OHT, but their characteristics in this population have not been well established. M...

متن کاملCardiorespiratory responses to exercise training after orthotopic cardiac transplantation.
We have tested the feasibility and effectiveness of a 2 year (average 16 +/- 7 months) walk/jog exercise program on 36 male orthotopic cardiac transplant patients (21 to 57 years old) seen initially 2 to 23 months after surgery. Comparison of initial exercise test results with those in 45 age-matched normal men showed the patients to have a lesser lean body mass (56 +/- 7 vs 63 +/- 8 kg, p less...
متن کاملCoronary Vasodilator Reserve After Human Orthotopic Cardiac Transplantation
Cardiac transplantation is frequently associated with accelerated coronary atherosclerosis and immune-mediated microvascular injury. To determine if orthotopic cardiac transplantation impairs the capacity of the coronary vasculature to vasodilate and conduct hyperemic blood flow, maximal coronary vasodilator reserve was measured in 25 cardiac allograft recipients with no evidence of rejection 6...
