Literature search
Shibilsky et al. 10				NA				NR				Porcine model—moderate LAD stenosis; IVUS feasible	NA
Ghodisizad et al. 8	46	M	24	NR					37	570	NR	Minor diffuse atherosclerosis	Unsuitable due to haemodynamic parameters

Note: aWIT is the time from cessation of circulation in the donor to delivery of preservation flush to the donor heart, >15 min is a predictor for severe primary graft dysfunction and perioperative ECMO. Functional WIT, functional warm ischemic time is the time from systolic of <90 mmHg in the donor to delivery of preservation flush to the donor heart, an upper limit of 30 min is permitted for this timeframe.

Abbreviations: CVD, cardiovascular disease; ECMO, extra corporeal membrane oxygenation; HL, hyperlipidaemia; HTN, hypertension; IVUS, intravascular ultrasound; LAD, left anterior descending artery; LCx, left circumflex coronary artery; OCS, organ care system; NR, not reported/recorded.
