Extended criteria donors are associated with reduced 1-year survival, and recipients with a lung allocation score 70 or greater who receive extended criteria donor organs have the lowest survival.

Extrapolation of prognosis based on the BODE score overestimates mortality risk in lung transplantation candidates with COPD. This is likely due to a lower prevalence of comorbid conditions attributable to the lung transplantation evaluation screening process.
