The role of frailty in cardiovascular disease is becoming increasingly recognized. Up to 79% patients with heart failure are frail. Frailty associated reduced quality life and poor prognosis. This review summarizes the available literature on its key waitlisting for transplantation.
BACKGROUND Poor survival outcomes for patients with severe heart failure (HF) and the donor shortage for heart transplantation warrant the development of myocardial regenerative therapy. We performed a multicenter, phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous skeletal myoblast sheets (TCD-51073). METHODS AND RESULTS In 3 study sites, we enrolled 7 patients with severe chro...
Heart transplantation has become the most effective treatment of end-stage heart failure in selected patients. More than 30 000 heart transplantations have been performed worldwide since its introduction in 1967, with a current 1-year survival rate of 85% and 5-year survival rate of 70%.1 Besides the enormous survival advantage associated with heart transplantation compared with all other thera...
BACKGROUND Pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the leading indication for heart transplantation after 1 year of age. Risk factors by etiology at clinical presentation have not been determined separately for death and transplantation in population-based studies. Competing risks analysis may inform patient prioritization for transplantation listing. METHODS AND RESULTS The Pediatric Cardi...
Chagas disease which is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi is an important cause of cardiomyopathy in Latin America. In later stages chagasic cardiomyopathy is associated with congestive heart failure which is often refractory to medical therapy. In these individuals heart transplantation has been attempted. However, this procedure is fraught with many problems attributable to the surgery...
PURPOSE To use high-spatial-resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to analyze the trabecular bone structure of the calcaneus in patients before and after heart transplantation and to compare this technique with bone mineral density (BMD) measurement in predicting therapy-induced bone loss and vertebral fracture status. MATERIALS AND METHODS High-spatial-resolution 1.5-T MR imaging of the ...
Orthotopic heart transplantation has been performed in pediatric patients for 27 years. Indications changed through the years, showing the increase of patients receiving a heart transplant for congenital heart defects, after having experienced repeated surgical palliations. At present, 1-year survival > 65% can be expected following pediatric heart transplantation. Morbidity other than hyperten...
