The ISHLT maintains two databases of transplant-related data.

The International Heart and Lung Transplant Registry has been collecting data since 1983 and tracks morbidity and mortality data post-transplant. At present, over 223 centers from 18 countries submit data to this registry. Participation in this registry is open to any center in the world performing heart and/or lung transplantation.  For more information about the Transplant Registry, as well as copies of the Registry Slides and enrollment forms, please click HERE.

ISHLT Data Request Forms - Requests for data and analyses from the Transplant Registry and MCSD Database can be made using the ISHLT Data Request Form. Priority is given to requests which are from ISHLT members and which are directly related to immediate patient care. Routine data requests are handled promptly. Requests for specialized data or complex analyses must be approved by the Registry Committee, so a response may take several months. A fee for the collection and/or analysis of such data may be involved.

The ISHLT Mechanical Circulatory Support Device (MCSD) Database was discontinued in 2003, but is now in the process of being reborn as the International MCS Registry.  Please check back here in late 2008 for an update on the status of the International MCS Registry.
