Description
Marie Bodilsen Nielsen and five co-authors test a heart screening plan for people who wait for a kidney transplant. They apply two sets of advice from a heart group to a group of more than five hundred patients who had already had heart scans over several years.
The newer plan sent more patients for heart review or added tests than the older plan did. Patients sent onward also faced higher risk of major heart events and death, which suggests the plan sorts risk well. The study helps transplant teams decide who needs heart checks before surgery.
