The implantation of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) has been increasing, with good long-term results, in parallel with a growing population with advanced heart failure (HF). However, in some European countries, LVADs are still underused, with one of the main issues being the patient's late referral.

Heart transplant rates were low but increased slightly in 2020 for patients without CHD, with DV and SV CHD patients showing fluctuating rates peaking in 2018 and 2019, then declining in 2020. Cardiogenic shock rates were highest among SV-CHD patients, with significant fluctuations, followed by DV-CHD patients.

The highly positive outcomes observed in primate models highlight the potential of this strategy. Heart attacks typically kill millions of cardiac muscle cells, leaving the heart in a weakened state. Cardiovascular diseases are still among the top causes of death worldwide, and especially prevalent in developed countries.

Heart transplantation remains a vital treatment for end-stage heart failure, yet the scarcity of suitable donor hearts makes the treatment unavailable to many patients in critical need. Addressing this critical barrier could potentially improve post-transplant outcomes and make older donor hearts a viable option.
