Popis: Aim: Hyperlactatemia is common post-heart transplantation. Lactate measurements in the first 24 h were analyzed with respect to mortality. Methods: A total of 153 consecutive cardiac transplant patients were reviewed. Recipients of organs maintained in a state of ex vivo perfusion were included. Results: A total of 143 heart recipients were included. Hyperlactatemia (>2 mmol/l) was present in all patients. Despite maximum lactate and lactate clearance being significantly higher in nonsurvivors (p = 0.002, p = 0.004), neither receiver operator curve analysis nor multivariate logistic regression showed association with 1-year mortality. In comparison, the minimum lactate was significantly associated with mortality (area under the curve 0.728 [p
