Multivariable analysis of donor and recipient factors predicting post-transplant survival

Donor factors Hazard ratio 95% CI p-Value
Age (per year) 1.01 1.00–1.02 0.01
Tobacco use (yes vs. no) 1.32 1.01–1.74 0.04
Mild LVH versus no LVH 1.00 0.79–1.27 0.97
Moderate-severe LVH
 versus no LVH
1.02 0.62–1.69 0.93
Recipient factors Hazard ratio 95% CI p-Value
Age >55 years versus age
 ≤55 years
1.30 1.04–1.63 0.02
Serum creatinine (per
 mg/dL)
1.31 1.17–1.47 <0.01
ECMO support (yes vs. no) 6.0 3.16–11.60 <0.01
Mean PAP (per mmHg) 1.01 1.00–1.02 < 0.01

CI = confidence interval; ECMO = extracorporeal membrane oxygenator; LVH = left ventricular hypertrophy; PAP = pulmonary artery pressure.

A p value <0.05 is considered significant.
