Abstract
Roughly 20% of potential cardiac donors are excluded due to LVD. This figure has not been impacted by recent studies indicating that these hearts may be used safely. More complete data are required to understand why 11.04% of hearts that met inclusion criteria were refused for “poor function” without documented evidence.
