Summary

This study tests whether hearts from HIV-positive deceased donors work as well as hearts from HIV-negative donors for HIV-positive patients who need a heart transplant. About 50 HIV-positive adults with advanced heart failure will receive either type of heart, whichever becomes available first. Researchers will track survival, graft function, and serious side effects for three years after transplant.
