Adult Heart and HeartLung Status 1 Criteria 1 Extension Justification Form Medical Urgency Data

You will be informed of any downgrades that are pending in the Critical Data section of Secure Enterprise. The “Extend” button will be available 2 days prior to expiration of the status.

All required data must be submitted in order to list a candidate at status 1, or extend their listing at status 1, in accordance with criteria that are specified in OPTN Policy. Use the search feature to locate specific policy information concerning adult heart status requirements.

If you do not submit this form to extend the candidate's status beyond the time frame described in policy, the candidate will automatically be downgraded to status 5 (if the candidate is registered for at least one other organ at the same transplant hospital, including VCA registrations) or status 6. Heart-Lung candidates will downgrade to status 5 since they are in need of two organs; a heart and a lung.

Status 1 Extension Criteria 1

To qualify for status 1 extension, the patient must meet one of the following criteria:

  1. Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA ECMO)

  2. Non-dischargeable, surgically implanted, non-endovascular biventricular support device

  3. Mechanical circulatory support device (MCSD) with life threatening ventricular arrhythmia

  4. Exception for status 1


Criterion selection made on the candidate’s initial justification form displays. Verify that the correct criterion is selected. If you wish to select a different criterion, you must submit a new form. 

If status 1, criteria 1: Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA ECMO), is selected, enter the following information:
