pubmed-article:16883126pubmed:abstractTextRegional referral networks ("hub and spoke") have been created to facilitate the transfer of patients on mechanical circulatory support. Although individual centers report good success, overall outcomes have remained poor. We investigated whether preoperative variables influenced survival and could be used to help select patients best served by referral. A retrospective chart review was conducted on all patients transferred to our institution supported on cardiac assist devices. Between January 1995 and September 2003, 39 patients were received in transfer for continued care after the implantation of a cardiac assist device. Eighty-five percent of patients had the ABIOMED BVS 5000 implanted. The most common indication was postcardiotomy shock. Sixty-four percent of patients were not candidates for heart transplantation due to medical or social contraindications. The 30-day mortality of this group was 62%. Survivors had less comorbidity and were less likely to have complex surgeries, neurologic impairment, and multisystem organ failure when presenting to our center. Devices were weaned in 30% of cases. Only six patients (15%) were successfully transplanted, and five of these patients have done well at follow-up. Based on our experience, we believe that cardiogenic shock patients benefit from a regional referral system if they have not had complex cardiac surgical procedures or developed multisystem organ failure. Furthermore, there is a survival advantage when using long-term devices because this allows possible recovery or transplantation.lld:pubmed
