Popis: Peak exercise oxygen consumption (pVO2) is an important predictor of prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). The association between pretransplant pVO2 and post-transplantation outcomes in HF patients has not been previously studied. We identified adult OHT recipients with available pVO2 in the United Network for Organ Sharing registry (2000 to 2015). Patients were divided into 3 categories using Weber classification: class B (pVO2 16 to 20 ml/kg/min), class C (pVO2 10 to 16 ml/kg/min), and class D (pVO2 14 days) hospitalization (adjusted Odds Ratio (OR) 1.42 [1.20 to 1.68], p
