Impact of waitlist weight change on outcomes in heart transplant recipients: a UNOS database analysis.
Background: While the effect of pre-transplant weight on patient outcomes following heart transplantation (HTx) has previously been studied, data regarding the impact of dynamic weight change prior to HTx are extremely limited.
Objectives: We sought to elucidate the interaction between HTx listing weight and weight change while waitlisted, and explore how that interaction impacts post-HTx survival in a continuous manner.
Methods: Adult patients listed for HTx from 1987 to 2020 were identified from UNOS database. Three-dimensional restricted cubic spline analysis explored post-HTx survival relative to both changes in BMI/weight and BMI at time of HTx listing. Continuous predictor variables were analyzed with Cox proportional hazards method.
Results: 9,628 included patients underwent HTx. Median recipient age was 55 [IQR 46-62] years, and 21% were females. 53% of patients lost while 47% gained weight on the waitlist. Median BMI (27.6 kg/m2 [24.3-31.3] vs. 27.4 kg/m2 [24.2-30.9], paired p < 0.001) and weight (84.8 kg [73.0-98.0] kg vs. 84.4 kg [72.6-96.6], p < 0.001) were similar at listing and transplant. One-year survival was 89.3%. Weight loss over 3 BMI points or 10 kg was associated with higher hazard of death irrespective of listing BMI. In non-obese patients, some weight gain (1-4 BMI points or 5-15 kg) was associated with improved survival. In cachectic patients (BMI < 18.5), failure to gain weight was associated with worse survival.
Conclusions: Impact of weight change varies depending on listing BMI. While a survival benefit is seen in non-obese patients who gain some weight, significant weight loss is associated with poorer survival.
