Study outcomes for people receiving heart transplants
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows people with severe (end-stage) heart failure who are evaluated for and receive a heart transplant. It helps doctors understand what outcomes to expect after transplant, which can guide future care.

This study is creating a registry to track and learn from people with advanced heart failure or who have had a heart transplant. By joining, you help researchers better understand these conditions and improve care.
This study looks at how the heart’s structure changes (“remodeling”) in people with heart failure who are being considered for a heart transplant. It may help doctors better understand what is happening in the failing heart and how to treat it.
This study looks at hearts donated for transplant that were found to have coronary artery disease and couldn't be used. Researchers want to understand the disease better by studying these hearts closely.
This study tests a special machine that helps preserve and evaluate donor hearts before transplant. If you're waiting for a heart transplant, this trial may help doctors find the best donor hearts and improve transplant outcomes.
This study looks at a type of fat around the heart's arteries in people who need a heart transplant. It may help doctors understand how fat affects heart disease.
This study collects and shares anonymous information about adults being considered for a heart transplant because of a congenital (from birth) heart problem or an inherited heart muscle condition. The goal is to better understand these patients and support research that may improve care.
