Figure 1From: Medium-term outcome of recipients of marginal donor hearts selected with new stress-echocardiographic techniques over standard criteria Donor heart eligibility criteria. Upper panel. Eligible heart: non-inducible ischemia (first row) in hearts with normal rest LV function; viability response at stress echo (second row) or at HT (third row) in stunned hearts with abnormal rest LV function. Lower panel. Non-eligible heart: stress echo positivity (first row) in hearts with normal rest LV function, excluding the heart from transplant; lack of viability response at stress echo (second row) or at HT (third row) in hearts with abnormal rest LV function.Back to article page
