Popis: [Abstract] Background. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) still affects 2-28% of heart transplants (HT). Severe PGD requires mechanical circulatory support (MCS) and is the main cause of death early after HT. Earlier initiation has been suggested to improve prognosis but the best cannulation strategy is unknown. Methods. Analysis of all HT in Spain between 2010 and 2020. Early (
