Infectious complications associated with short-term mechanical circulatory support in urgent heart transplant candidates
2021
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives. Short-term mechanical circulatory support is frequently used as a bridge to heart transplant in Spain. The epidemiology and prognostic impact of infectious complications in these patients are unknown. Methods. Systematic description of the epidemiology of infectious complications and analysis of their prognostic impact in a multicenter, retrospective registry of patients treated with short-term mechanical devices as a bridge to urgent heart transplant from 2010 to 2015 in 16 Spanish hospitals. Results. We studied 249 patients, of which 87 (34.9%) had a total of 102 infections. The most frequent site was the respiratory tract (n = 47; 46.1%). Microbiol…
Reinervación cardiaca tras trasplante cardiaco : valoración clínica, funcional e isotópica en el primer año tras trasplante
2013
El trasplante cardiaco supone un estado de denervación cardiaca completa con implicaciones fisiológicas, clínicas y funcionales. En los últimos años, diversos grupos han demostrado mediante diversas técnicas la existencia de un fenómeno de reinervación cardiaca tras el trasplante que podría tener implicaciones funcionales. El presente trabajo doctoral pretende concretar la existencia de este fenómeno de reinervación durante los primeros doce meses tras la cirugía. Además, plantea un enfoque multidisciplinar para el estudio de la inervación cardiaca incluyendo herramientas de medicina nuclear, pruebas de esfuerzo, valoración de calidad de vida y parámetros electrocardiográficos relacionados …
Puente a trasplante cardiaco con oxigenación de membrana extracorpórea
2012
PUENTE A TRASPLANTE CARDIACO CON OXIGENACIÓN DE MEMBRANA EXTRACORPÓREA Objetivos: Los nuevos sistemas de Oxigenación de Membrana Extracorpórea (ECMO) han presentado un desarrollo tecnológico notable, fundamentalmente debido a la incorporación de oxigenadores y bombas centrífugas de larga duración, lo cual ha conducido a una importante mejoría en la supervivencia de los pacientes en shock cardiogénico refractario tratados con este tipo de asistencia mecánica circulatoria de corta duración. La implantación de este dispositivo por vía periférica de forma sencilla, rápida y poco agresiva en estos pacientes en shock cardiogénico con signos incipientes de fracaso multiorgánico puede mejorar su su…
Results of heart retransplantation: subanalysis of the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry
2021
Heart retransplantation (ReHT) is controversial in the current era. The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the results of ReHT in Spain. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort analysis from the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry from 1984 to 2018. Data were collected on donors, recipients, surgical procedure characteristics, immunosuppression, and survival. The main outcome was posttransplant all-cause mortality or need for ReHT. We studied differences in survival according to indication for ReHT, the time interval between transplants and era of ReHT. Results A total of 7592 heart transplants (HT) and 173 (2.3%) ReHT were studied (median age, 52.0 and 55.0 years, respectively…
Impact of donor-recipient age on cardiac transplant survival. Subanalysis of the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry.
2020
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives. The age of heart transplant recipients and donors is progressively increasing. It is likely that not all donor-recipient age combinations have the same impact on mortality. The objective of this work was to compare survival in transplant recipients according to donor-recipient age combinations. Methods. We performed a retrospective analysis of transplants performed between 1 January 1993 and 31 December 2017 in the Spanish Heart Transplant Registry. Pediatric transplants, retransplants and combined transplants were excluded (6505 transplants included). Four groups were considered: a) donor < 50 years for recipient < 65 years; b) donor < 50 years for r…
