Overview

The need for cardiac transplantation may result from advanced, irreversible heart failure with a severely limited life expectancy. Common causes include- Systolic Heart Failure with a Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction less than 35%, Ischemic Coronary Artery Disease with Refractory Angina, Intractable life-threatening Arrhythmias, Cardiomyopathies, Congenital Heart Disease

Causes

Life-threatening Causes

  • All the causes listed below are life-threatening as they lead to irreversible heart failure with very low ejection fraction and may cause sudden cardiac death if not optimized.

Common Causes

Common causes and indications that result in the need for cardiac transplantation may include:[1]

  • Systolic Heart Failure with a Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction less than 35%
  • Ischemic Coronary Artery Disease with Refractory [[Angina]
  • Intractable life-threatening Arrhythmias
    • Ventricular arrhythmias which are not controlled by an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator
  • Cardiomyopathies
    • Restrictive and Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathies with NYHA Class IV heart failure symptoms
    • Non-dilated cardiomyopathies
  • Congenital Heart Disease
    • New York Heart Association functional class IV Heart Failure not amenable to surgery.
