3 Chapter 4 Heart Transplantation 4 Heart Transplantation Heart transplantation is the treatment of last resort for people with heart failure. In Canada, heart transplants are the third most common organ transplant operation, after kidney and liver transplants. This section discusses the trends in heart transplantation procedures and outcomes in Canada over the decade from 2004 to There were 167 people on the waiting list for a heart transplant in Between 2004 and 2013, there were 1,675 heart transplants registered in CORR, including 59 re-transplants. The number of transplants performed each year fluctuated from a low of 143 in 2004 to a high of 192 in Children accounted for 19% (299) of all first graft heart transplants over the decade. The largest number of first transplants was performed on recipients between age 35 and 59 (807), followed by those age 60 and older (337) (Table 41). The crude RPMP for heart transplants varied from 4.6 to 6.8 across Canada (Figure 14). Persons on the waiting list for a heart transplant are categorized according to their medical status at the time of transplant. Status 1 and 2 patients are classified as non-urgent and may be at home or in hospital. Status 3, 3B and 4 patients are in the most urgent need of a transplant. Status 3A and 3B patients may be in the ICU or on inotropic drugs to strengthen heart muscle contractions, while Status 4 patients are already in the ICU with ventilator support. With the exception of 2008, more than half of all heart transplants have been classified as urgent in the last decade (Figure 15). Survival rates generally showed continued improvement for much of the period under examination (Figure 16). In 2010, 82% of recipients survived the first three years, and five-year survival also improved from 75% to 90% between 2004 and In 2013, there were 2,611 Canadians living with a heart transplant.
