Summary

Heart transplantation is the gold standard for patients with end‑stage heart failure. The available donor supply limits the number of cardiac transplants. Transplant centres need to provide alternative therapy for these patients with heart failure. The mechanical circulatory support systems are used as a bridge to transplantation in heart transplant candidates (long‑term support). This review describes the current status of heart transplantation and long‑term mechanical circulatory support devices for treatment of chronic heart failure.
