Article Synopsis
- Limited information exists on the physical activity and lifestyle measures for heart transplantation (HTx) recipients, despite the history of HTx spanning over 50 years without established guidelines for prevention and rehabilitation.
- The scientific statement aims to highlight the significance of prevention and rehabilitation post-HTx and identify both modifiable and non-modifiable factors that can enhance physical capacity, quality of life, and survival for these patients.
- A multidisciplinary approach is essential for developing tailored prevention and rehabilitation programs that begin early after HTx and continue throughout the patient's recovery journey.
Aim To identify predictors associated with the prognosis of patients on the heart transplant waiting list (HTWL) corresponding to UNOS class 2.Material and methods A HTWL database for 2010-2021 was retrospectively evaluated. The study included patients (n=162) who at the time of inclusion into the HTWL met UNOS class 2 and reached the endpoint of death, heart transplantation (HT), or exclusion from the HTWL due to an improvement of their condition.
