Actuarial survival of DDCD donor lung transplant (LTX) recipients (P = .04) vs DDND LTx recipients vs ISHLT registry survival: 2006-2011. Four Australian LTx centers performed a combined 72 DDCD LTx and 503 DDND LTx between May 2006 and May 2011. For comparison, the registry survival of the ISHLT during the same period is also shown. DDCD = donation after determination of cardiac death; DDND = donation after determination of neurologic death; ISHLT = International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation.
