Brief summary

The objective of this post-approval registry is to provide additional real-world evidence of the performance of the OCS Heart System to preserve DBD and DCD donor hearts.

Detailed description

Multi-center, observational post-approval registry to: 1. compare patient and graft survival of adult primary heart transplant recipients receiving DBD donor hearts perfused and assessed on the OCS Heart System compared to adult recipients of DBD donor hearts preserved using ischemic cold storage hearts (Control) at the same Registry centers over the same time period, and 2. compare patient and graft survival of adult primary heart transplant recipients receiving DCD donor hearts perfused and assessed on the OCS Heart System compared to adult recipients of DBD donor hearts preserved using ischemic cold storage hearts (Control) at the same Registry centers over the same time period.

Interventions

The TransMedics® OCS Heart System is a portable system available for ex-vivo maintenance of a donor heart in a metabolically active and beating state. The OCS Heart System's innovative technology was designed to comprehensively overcome the historical limitations of cold storage. The OCS Heart System expands the utilization of donor hearts by enabling the use of donor hearts deemed unsuitable for procurement and transplantation at initial evaluation due to limitations of cold static cardioplegic preservation.
