Summary

On this episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors invite first author Peter Cho and senior author Abbas Ardehali, MD , to discuss the paper, " Severe primary graft dysfunction in heart transplant recipients using donor hearts after circulatory death: a United States Experience ." Peter is a third year medical student at Drexel University, and Dr. Ardehali is professor of surgery and medicine and the Director of the Heart, Lung, and Heart-Lung Transplant programs at UCLA. The episode explores: The study's findings regarding an increased incidence of severe PGD at 24 hours post-transplant in DCD over DBD recipients What risks weren't changed in DCD recipients—suggesting that DCD PGD is likely to be transient, and may have a different phenotype How NRP may impact the outcomes Mitigating the risk of PGD For the latest studies from JHLT , visit www.jhltonline.org/current , or, if you're an ISHLT member, access your Journal membership at www.ishlt.org/jhlt .
