About
The primary objective of this study is to collect real-world clinical performance data to assess the clinical outcomes of patients receiving heart transplants using donor hearts transported via the SherpaPak CTS System. These results will be compared to outcomes of retrospective patients whose hearts were transported with the previous standard method.
Full description
This study is a registry study collecting data both retrospectively from patients already transplanted and prospectively from consecutively enrolled patients for heart transplantation. The study is a chart review study.
Ongoing eligible recipients will undergo heart transplantation according to standard practices at each participating institution.
This study will be conducted at an estimated 25 institutions globally and will have about up to 3000 patients. Subjects will be followed from transplant through one-year post-transplantation (i.e., 24 hours post-transplant, discharge, 30-days, 1-year, 2-years, 3-years, 4-years, 5-years).
GUARDIAN provides critical and contemporary data on patient outcomes, with additional insight into risk factors and patient-related indices. Both donor and recipient information along with procedural details (including transportation) will be collected to provide information for major discrete endpoints such as death, primary graft dysfunction, right ventricular dysfunction, CPB weaning, Inotrope use, CAV diagnosis, rejection, and survival.
Information about re-hospitalizations and re-transplantations is vital to address the integrated endpoint of days alive out of hospital, which is particularly relevant for this patient population. In addition, the number of in-hospital days and ICU time is closely tracked as the major resource utilized, after the initial transplant.
