All trials for Heart Transplant
-Summary
This is a single center retrospective/prospective observational study with additional procedures meant to evaluate molecular mechanisms underlying injury in donor's heart.
The research project will focus on Metabolomics by NMR and LC-MS and ultrastructural analysis using electron microscopy of endomyocardial biopsies (EMB).In our clinical protocol of heart transplantation, myocardial biopsy samples are routinely provided at intraoperative and postoperative time.
