Abstract

Introduction Since July 2007, the French high emergency lung transplantation (HELT) allocation procedure prioritises available lung grafts to waiting patients with imminent risk of death. The relative impacts of donor, recipient and matching on the outcome following HELT remain unknown. We aimed at deciphering the relative impacts of donor, recipient and matching on the outcome following HELT in an exhaustive administrative database.

Methods All lung transplantations performed in France were prospectively registered in an administrative database. We retrospectively reviewed the procedures performed between July 2007 and December 2015, and analysed the impact of donor, recipient and matching on overall survival after the HELT procedure by fitting marginal Cox models.

Results During the study period, 2335 patients underwent lung transplantation in 11 French centres. After exclusion of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease/emphysema, 1544 patients were included: 503 HELT and 1041 standard lung transplantation allocations. HELT was associated with a hazard ratio for death of 1.41 (95% CI 1.22–1.64; p<0.0001) in univariate analysis, decreasing to 1.32 (95% CI 1.10–1.60) after inclusion of recipient characteristics in a multivariate model. A donor score computed to predict long-term survival was significantly different between the HELT and standard lung transplantation groups (p=0.014). However, the addition of donor characteristics to recipient characteristics in the multivariate model did not change the hazard ratio associated with HELT.

Conclusions This exhaustive French national study suggests that HELT is associated with an adverse outcome compared with regular allocation. This adverse outcome is mainly related to the severity status of the recipients rather than donor or matching characteristics.

Abstract

The results of this first exhaustive multicentre French national study suggest that adverse outcomes associated with high emergency lung transplantation are mainly related to the severity status of recipients rather than donor or matching characteristics http://bit.ly/2LSyWTE
