There is no widely accepted donor to recipient size-match metric to predict outcomes in cardiac transplant. The predictive ability of size-match metrics has not been studied when recipients are stratified by heart failure etiology. We sought to assess the performance of commonly used size metrics to predict survival after heart transplant, accounting for restrictive versus non-restrictive pathology.The UNOS registry was queried from 2000 to 2017 for all primary isolated heart transplants. Donor-recipient ratios were calculated for commonly used size metrics and their association with survival was assessed using continuous, nonlinear analysis.29 817 patients were identified. Height (P .001), predicted heart mass (PHM) (P = .003), ideal body weight (IBW) (P .001) and body mass index (BMI) (P = .003) ratios were significantly associated with survival, while weight and body surface area (BSA) ratios were not. When stratified, only BMI ratio retained significance for both restrictive (P = .051) and non-restrictive (P = .003) subsets. Recipients with restrictive etiology had increased risk of mortality with both a lower and higher BMI ratio.While many metrics show association with survival in the non-restrictive subset, BMI is the only metric that retains significance in the restrictive subset. Recipients with restrictive and non-restrictive etiologies of heart failure tolerate size mismatch differently. |
