    Abstract Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third leading cause of cardiovascular mortality in the United States. Unfortunately, significant gaps exist in outcome data around many interventional therapies, a fact that is reflected in the low strength of management recommendations found in consensus major society guidelines. In addition to careful risk stratification, therapeutic anticoagulation generally should be an early part of PE management in all cases. For patients presenting with acute high-risk PE or intermediate-risk PE with higher risk features, consideration should be given to systemic thrombolysis after careful evaluation for potential bleeding complications. In patients with contraindications to systemic thrombolysis, failure of this therapy, or significant ongoing cardiopulmonary distress, consideration should be given to interventional therapies like catheter-directed lysis, catheter-directed embolectomy, surgical embolectomy, and mechanical circulatory support. Until more robust comparative outcome data are put forward, pulmonary embolism response teams (PERT) should be considered for multi-disciplinary patient evaluation and management.

    Abstract Background: Studies have demonstrated the devastating effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on vulnerable populations. Although they receive close follow-up, heart transplant recipients represent a particularly vulnerable population, given long-term immunosuppression and comorbid conditions. We sought to investigate the association between race/ethnicity and the probability of death due to COVID-19 in adult heart transplant recipients in the United States.
    Methods: Adult isolated heart transplant recipients were identified using the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network database. Recipients who were described as deceased or lost to follow-up before January 2020 were excluded. Recipients were stratified into 4 cohorts by race/ethnicity. The primary outcome of interest was death due to COVID-19.
    Results: A total of 22 157 adult recipients were identified. During the course of follow-up, 153 recipients had COVID-19 reported as the primary cause of death. COVID-19 mortality was significantly different between race/ethnicity cohorts (Black, n = 34 [0.79%]; Hispanic, n = 23 [1.33%]; White, n = 92 [0.60%]; other, n = 4 [0.44%]; P = .007). COVID-19 was listed as a contributing cause of mortality in 0.12% of Black, 0.23% of Hispanic, 0.04% of White, and 0.33% of other recipients (P = .002). No significant difference in non-COVID mortality or all-cause mortality was observed. After multivariable adjustment, Black (hazard ratio, 2.78 [1.40-5.52]; P = .003) and Hispanic (hazard ratio, 3.92 [1.88-8.16]; P < .001) recipients were at higher risk of death due to COVID-19 compared with White recipients.
    Conclusions: Compared with White recipients, Black and Hispanic recipients experienced higher rates of COVID-19 mortality after transplantation. These findings suggest that racial/ethnic disparities of COVID-19 mortality in the general population persist in adult heart transplant recipients.

    Abstract Donation after circulatory death (DCD) donor hearts recovered using the direct procurement and perfusion method experience variable durations of warm ischemia at the time of procurement (WIP). We used the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network database to assess the effect of WIP on 30-day mortality after DCD heart transplantation. The analysis evaluated outcomes in 237 recipients of DCD heart transplantation, demonstrating an optimal WIP cut point of <36 minutes. Multivariable logistic regression modeling identified donor left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <60% as an independent predictor of 30-day mortality. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting 30-day mortality based on WIP ≥36 minutes and donor LVEF <60% was 0.90. Based on these findings, we do not recommend proceeding with DCD heart transplantation for patients with WIP ≥36 minutes, particularly in donors with LVEF <60%.

    Abstract Background: Donation after circulatory death (DCD) heart transplantation has promising early survival, but the effects on rejection remain unclear.
    Methods: The United Network for Organ Sharing database was queried for adult heart transplants from December 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021. Multiorgan transplants and loss to follow-up were excluded. The primary outcome was acute rejection, comparing DCD and donation after brain death (DBD) transplants.
    Results: A total of 292 DCD and 5,582 DBD transplants met study criteria. Most DCD transplants were transplanted at status 3-4 (61.0%) compared to 58.6% of DBD recipients at status 1-2. DCD recipients were less likely to be hospitalized at transplant (26.7% vs 58.3%, p < 0.001) and to require intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP; 9.6% vs 28.9%, p < 0.001), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO; 0.3% vs 5.9%, p < 0.001) or temporary left ventricular assist device (LVAD; 1.0% vs 2.7%, p < 0.001). DCD recipients were more likely to have acute rejection prior to discharge (23.3% vs 18.4%, p = 0.044) and to be hospitalized for rejection (23.4% vs 11.4%, p = 0.003) at a median follow-up of 15 months; the latter remained significant after propensity matching. On multivariable logistic regression, DCD donation was an independent predictor of acute rejection (odds ratio [OR] 1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00-2.15, p = 0.048) and hospitalization for rejection (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.06-3.70, p = 0.026). On center-specific subgroup analysis, DCD recipients continued to have higher rates of hospitalization for rejection (23.4% vs 13.8%, p = 0.043).
    Conclusions: DCD recipients are more likely to experience acute rejection. Early survival is similar between DCD and DBD recipients, but long-term implications of increased early rejection in DCD recipients require further investigation.

    Abstract Background: Direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) has encouraged lung transplantation with HCV positive donors. Early trials have been promising; however, nationwide data have not been previously examined.
    Methods: The United Network for Organ Sharing registry was queried for adult patients receiving lung transplants from 2016 to 2019. We excluded multiorgan transplants, incomplete data, and loss to follow-up. Nucleic acid testing (NAT) determined HCV status. Propensity matching was performed for comparison of outcomes.
    Results: Hepatitis C virus NAT-positive lungs were transplanted in 189 patients, compared with 9511 recipients of NAT-negative lungs. The HCV NAT-positive donors were younger (mean 33 vs 35 years, P = .017) with higher rates of Pao
    Conclusions: Short-term outcomes of lung transplantation from HCV viremic donors are promising, with no difference in early complications or survival. The effects of seroconversion and long-term outcomes including chronic rejection and infection need to be further explored.
