Abstract

Early morbidity and mortality post cardiac transplantation is frequently caused by right ventricular failure; this is usually attributed to an elevated pulmonary vascular resistance in the recipient. Brain death in the donor is recognised as causing left ventricular dysfunction, but its effects on the right ventricle have not previously been studied. The aim of this study was to investigate right ventricular function following brain death, using a canine model.
