ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

Lung transplant for acute respiratory distress syndrome in patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was rare before 2020, but was rapidly adopted to rescue patients with COVID-19 with lung failure. This study aims to compare the outcomes of patients who underwent lung transplant for COVID-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome and non-COVID acute respiratory distress syndrome, and to assess the impact of type and duration of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support on survival.

METHODS:

Using the United Network for Organ Sharing database, we identified 311 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome who underwent lung transplant from 2007 to 2022 and performed a retrospective analysis of the patients who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation preoperatively, stratified by COVID-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome and non-COVID acute respiratory distress syndrome listing diagnoses. The primary outcome was 1-year survival. Secondary outcomes included the effect of type and duration of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation on survival.

RESULTS:

During the study period, 236 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and preoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation underwent lung transplant; 181 patients had a listing diagnosis of COVID-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (77%), and 55 patients had a listing diagnosis of non-COVID acute respiratory distress syndrome (23%). Patients with COVID-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome were older, were more likely to be female, had higher body mass index, and spent longer on the waitlist (all P < .02) than patients with non-COVID acute respiratory distress syndrome. The 2 groups had similar 1-year survival (85.8% vs 81.1%, P = .2) with no differences in postoperative complications. Patients with COVID-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome required longer times on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation pretransplant (P = .02), but duration of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support was not a predictor of 1-year survival (P = .2).

CONCLUSIONS:

Despite prolonged periods of pretransplant extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, selected patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome can undergo lung transplant safely with acceptable short-term outcomes. Appropriate selection criteria and long-term implications require further analysis.
