加拿大第一次非殴打性心脏移植成功移植了血液循环死亡后的捐赠者的心脏,这有可能扩大捐赠者的数量。 Canada’s first non-beating heart transplant successfully transplanted a heart from a donor after circulatory death, potentially expanding the donor pool.

加拿大于2025年9月在多伦多大学卫生网进行了第一次非殴打性心脏移植手术,使用了一名捐赠者的心脏,该捐赠者的心脏在维持生命后停止跳动,这是一种被称为循环死亡后捐赠的方法。 Canada performed its first non-beating heart transplant in September 2025 at Toronto’s University Health Network, using a heart from a donor whose heart stopped after life support was withdrawn, a method known as donation after circulatory death. 这一程序必须在死亡后一小时内完成,涉及保存心脏并在移植前用机器使心脏恢复活力。 The procedure, which must be completed within one hour of death, involves preserving the heart and reanimating it with a machine before transplant. 接受者正在恢复良好,这种技术可以将加拿大的捐赠者增加高达30%, 帮助解决长时间的等待时间, 目前超过175人被列入心脏移植名单, 2024年报告有13人死亡。 The recipient is recovering well, and the technique could increase Canada’s donor pool by up to 30%, helping address long wait times—over 175 people are currently on the heart transplant list, with 13 deaths reported in 2024. UHN计划在下一年再进行10至15次此类移植,同时监测结果。 UHN plans 10 to 15 more such transplants in the coming year while monitoring outcomes.
