==Overview==
The [[prognosis]] of the patient depends on a number of [[donor]] and recipient factors. If left untreated, patients develop acute [[graft rejection]]. Common complications of cardiac transplant include [[Graft rejection|acute graft rejection]], graft failure, [[Infection|infections]], [[Cardiac allograft vasculopathy]] (CAV), [[Cancer|malignancies]], and late [[graft rejection]].


==Prognosis==
==Prognosis==
After the first 6 months, the mortality rates is approximately 3.5% per year. The prognosis for heart transplant patients following the orthotopic procedure has greatly increased over the past 20 years, and as of Aug. 11, 2006, the survival rates were as follows.<ref>[http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=4588 Heart Transplants: Statistics] ''The [[American Heart Association]]''. Retrieved February 1, 2007.</ref>
* Depending on the various factors of the donor and recipient at the time of transplant, the prognosis may vary.
* Prognosis is generally regarded as good. The 1-year survival is 84.5% and 5-year survival is 72.5%. <ref name="pmid25242124">{{cite journal| author=Lund LH, Edwards LB, Kucheryavaya AY, Benden C, Christie JD, Dipchand AI | display-authors=etal| title=The registry of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation: thirty-first official adult heart transplant report--2014; focus theme: retransplantation. | journal=J Heart Lung Transplant | year= 2014 | volume= 33 | issue= 10 | pages= 996-1008 | pmid=25242124 | doi=10.1016/j.healun.2014.08.003 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=25242124  }} </ref>

The following are the factors determining [[prognosis]]-
=== Donor factors===
Both the following factors are associated with an increased one-year mortality rate in the recipient.
*Advanced donor age <ref name="PotapovLoebe1999">{{cite journal|last1=Potapov|first1=Evgenij V.|last2=Loebe|first2=Matthias|last3=H??bler|first3=Michael|last4=Musci|first4=Michele|last5=Hummel|first5=Manfred|last6=Weng|first6=Yu-guo|last7=Hetzer|first7=Roland|title=MEDIUM-TERM RESULTS OF HEART TRANSPLANTATION USING DONORS OVER 63 YEARS OF AGE1|journal=Transplantation|volume=68|issue=12|year=1999|pages=1834–1838|issn=0041-1337|doi=10.1097/00007890-199912270-00002}}</ref>
*Prolonged [[ischemia]] time


* 1 year: 86.1% (males), 83.9% (females)
===Recipient factors===
* 3 years: 78.3% (males), 74.9% (females)
* Use of total artificial heart as a bridge to transplant or a need for end-organ support in the form of [[mechanical ventilation]] or [[dialysis]]- associated with the greatest one-year mortality
* 5 years: 71.2% (males), 66.9% (females)
* Best prognosis is seen if the indication for transplant is [[ischemic]] and [[nonischemic cardiomyopathy]] <ref name="KhushCherikh2018">{{cite journal|last1=Khush|first1=Kiran K.|last2=Cherikh|first2=Wida S.|last3=Chambers|first3=Daniel C.|last4=Goldfarb|first4=Samuel|last5=Hayes|first5=Don|last6=Kucheryavaya|first6=Anna Y.|last7=Levvey|first7=Bronwyn J.|last8=Meiser|first8=Bruno|last9=Rossano|first9=Joseph W.|last10=Stehlik|first10=Josef|title=The International Thoracic Organ Transplant Registry of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation: Thirty-fifth Adult Heart Transplantation Report—2018; Focus Theme: Multiorgan Transplantation|journal=The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation|volume=37|issue=10|year=2018|pages=1155–1168|issn=10532498|doi=10.1016/j.healun.2018.07.022}}</ref>


The "half-life" of patient survival has likewise improved as follows <ref>Taylor, DO, Stehlik, J, Edwards, LB, et al. Registry of the international society for heart and lung transplantation: twenty-sixth official adult heart transplant report-2009. J Heart Lung Transplant 2009; 28:1007.</ref>:
* Patients with a history of [[congenital heart disease]], [[restrictive cardiomyopathy]], and those undergoing retransplantation have a worse prognosis.
* Younger recipients (below age 55) have an advantage
* Pre-transplant serum [[creatinine]] and total [[bilirubin]] are linearly related to survival.

As of 2006, Tony Huesman is the world's longest living heart transplant patient, having survived for 28 years with a transplanted heart. Huesman received a heart in 1978 at the age of 20 after [[viral pneumonia]] severely weakened his heart. The operation was performed at Stanford University under American heart transplant pioneer [[Norman Shumway|Dr. Norman Shumway]], who continued to perform the operation in the U.S. after others abandoned it due to poor results. <ref>[http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/09/14/ap/health/mainD8K49NG86.shtml Heart Transplant Patient OK After 28 Yrs] (September 14, 2006) ''CBS News''.

Overview

The prognosis of the patient depends on a number of donor and recipient factors. If left untreated, patients develop acute graft rejection. Common complications of cardiac transplant include acute graft rejection, graft failure, infections, Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV), malignancies, and late graft rejection.

Prognosis

  • Depending on the various factors of the donor and recipient at the time of transplant, the prognosis may vary.
  • Prognosis is generally regarded as good. The 1-year survival is 84.5% and 5-year survival is 72.5%. [1]
  • Post-transplant survival has improved over time.
  • The median survival after adult heart transplants performed between 2002 and 2009 is 12.5 years, which extends to 14.8 years among 1-year survivors. [2]

The following are the factors determining prognosis-

Donor factors

Both the following factors are associated with an increased one-year mortality rate in the recipient.

Recipient factors

Some other risk factors are:
