Abstract
The impact of pre-transplant renal function on heart transplant (HTx) outcomes may be different between those with optimized perfusion with LVAD and those without prior LVAD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between pre-transplant estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and HTx survival in LVAD and non-LVAD cohorts, to determine whether there should be different eligibility criteria for degree of renal dysfunction prior to HTx.
