Donor hypernatremia is associated with increased mortality after heart transplantation: A retrospective study. Clin Transplant 2022; 36:e14803. [PMID: 36004448 DOI: 10.1111/ctr.14803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Revised: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Donor hypernatremia has been associated with primary graft dysfunction in heart transplantation (HTx) and is correlated with impaired outcome following liver and renal transplantation. However, controversial data exist regarding the impact of sodium dysregulation on survival. This study aims to investigate the impact of donor sodium levels on early morbidity and short- and midterm survival following HTx. METHODS Between September 2010 and June 2021, a total of n = 218 patients underwent HTx in our center. From those, 214 could be included retrospectively in our study. For each donor, sodium levels were collected and different cut-off levels from 145 to 159 mmol/L were investigated by Kaplan-Meier-analysis. Then, recipients were divided in three groups regarding donor sodium: Normonatremia (133-145 mmol/L, n = 73), mild hypernatremia (146-156 mmol/L, n = 105) and severe hypernatremia (>156 mmol/L, n = 35). Recipient and donor variables were reviewed and compared, including peri- and postoperative characteristics and recipient survival after up to 5 years after transplantation. RESULTS All patients were comparable regarding baseline characteristics and perioperative parameters. Regarding early mortality, 90-day survival was significantly reduced only in patients with severe donor hypernatremia in comparison to normonatremia (90% vs. 71%, p = .02), but not in mild hypernatremia (89%, p = .89). One-year survival was comparable in all groups (p > .28). CONCLUSION Severe donor hypernatremia was associated with reduced short-term survival, while the correlation weakens > 1 year after HTx. As our study is limited due to the nature of its retrospective, single-center approach, future prospective studies are needed to evaluate the importance of donor management with regard to hypernatremia.

Abstract
Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation remains the most effective treatment for providing consistent and long-term euglycemia in patients having type 1 diabetes with renal failure. Thrombosis of the pancreatic vasculature continues to contribute significantly to early graft failure and loss. We compared the rate of thrombosis to graft loss and systematically reviewed risk factors impacting early thrombosis of the pancreas allograft following SPK transplantation. We searched the MEDLINE, EMBASE, The Cochrane Library, and PREMEDLINE databases for studies reporting thrombosis following pancreas transplantation. Identified publications were screened for inclusion and synthesized into a data extraction sheet. Sixty-three studies satisfied eligibility criteria: 39 cohort studies, 22 conference abstracts, and 2 meta-analyses. Newcastle-Ottawa Scale appraisal of included studies demonstrated cohort studies of low bias risk; 1127 thrombi were identified in 15 936 deceased donor, whole pancreas transplants, conferring a 7.07% overall thrombosis rate. Thrombosis resulted in pancreatic allograft loss in 83.3% of reported cases. This review has established significant associations between donor and recipient characteristics, procurement and preservation methodology, transplantation technique, postoperative management, and increased risk of early thrombosis in the pancreas allograft. Further studies examining the type of organ preservation fluid, prophylactic heparin protocol, and exocrine drainage method and early thrombosis should also be performed.

Predictive and Comparative Study Between Clinic Consensus Document for Pancreas Acceptance and Predictive Value of Preprocurement Pancreas Allocation Suitability Score (P-PASS). Transplant Proc 2018; 51:365-368. [PMID: 30879542 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2018.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2018] [Accepted: 10/23/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The strict selection of pancreas for transplant has forced the development of different documents to select the suitable organ in order to minimize the risks and complications of the transplant. In 2008, Eurotransplant published the Preprocurement Pancreas Allocation Suitability Score (P-PASS) for pretransplant selection. In 2001 the Hospital Clinic of Barcelona developed a Clinical Consensus Document (CCD). OBJECTIVES We aimed to analyze the predictive decision of the pancreas acceptance to offers received in the hospital, according to the CCD criteria and compare it with the recommended value of suitability for accepting the pancreas according to the P-PASS value. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed a retrospective comparative study between the criteria of selection of the CCD for pancreas from 2016-2017 in comparison with the values obtained if the P-PASS had been used: ≤ 17, acceptance criteria and P-PASS; > 17, risk criteria. We defined the organ reported as rejected or accepted. The accepted organ could be procured and transplanted or discarded. RESULTS With the CCD criteria, 7 more organs were transplanted than if we only applied the potential P-PASS criteria. In contrast, P-PASS would have ruled out an additional 9% of pancreases in relation to CCD criteria. CONCLUSIONS According our experience, it is difficult to find an adequate prediction model to select pancreas for transplantation. The application of the DCC criteria increases the number of organs valid for transplantation. At present, new criteria should be re-evaluated within multicenter studies.
