Respiratory System Compliance Predicts Outcome After Lung Transplantation-A Retrospective Single Center Study.

ABSTRACT: Background: Outcome prediction in patients undergoing lung transplantation (LUTX) for end-stage pulmonary disease can be challenging. We examined the prognostic value for mortality of respiratory system compliance (C_RS) and mechanical power of ventilation (MP) at end of surgery in patients undergoing LUTX for end-stage pulmonary disease. Methods: In this single-center retrospective study, we included 755 patients undergoing LUTX between 2014 and 2023. The primary endpoint of this study was 1-year mortality, with 30-day mortality serving as a secondary endpoint. We conducted both univariate and multivariate analyses and constructed Receiver Operating Characteristic curves. Results: Of 755 patients, 1.9% and 12.2% patients died within 30 days and 1 year after
