Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can cure various disorders but poses cardiovascular risks, especially for elderly patients and those with diseases. Cardiovascular evaluations are crucial in pretransplantation assessments, guidelines lacking. This American Heart Association scientific statement summarizes the data on transplantation-related complications provides guidance management throughout transplantation. consists of 4 phases: workup, conditioning therapy infusion, immediate...
Obesity and dyslipidemia afflict children of all ages. We explored the prevalence obesity in pediatric heart transplant (HT) recipients its effects on cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) survival. This study included primary HT (≤18 years) transplanted between 01/1996 12/2018 Pediatric Heart Transplant Society database. was categorized according to WHO/CDC guidelines National Cholesterol Education Program. Kaplan-Meier analyses for CAV graft loss stratified BMI lipid panels were generated...
Adverse effects of clinician burnout have been studied across multiple specialties; however, there no studies examining rates among pediatric solid organ transplant teams. This study aimed to measure burnout, work exhaustion, professional fulfillment, and post-traumatic stress symptoms clinicians administrators practicing in this high-stress field.This cross-sectional utilized a 50 item web-based survey that included the Personal Fulfillment Index IES-R. was distributed four centers North...
Abstract Background Ideal “cardiovascular health” (CVH)–optimal diet, exercise, nonsmoking, BMI, BP, lipids, and glucose—is associated with healthy longevity in adults. Pediatric heart transplant (HT) patients may be at risk for suboptimal CVH. Methods Single-center retrospective study of HT 2003–2014 who survived 1 year post-transplant. Five CVH metrics were collected listing, 1, 3 5 years post-transplant (diet exercise unavailable). was scored by summing individual metrics: ideal = 2,...
Purpose: Pediatric ventricular assist devices (VAD) improve waitlist mortality. We aimed to compare outcomes after heart transplant (HT) based on pre-HT support in patients (pt) <18 years (yr) at listing. Methods: Prospectively collected VAD and post-HT data were linked between ACTION PHTS databases, respectively (4/1/2018-6/30/2022). Support groups defined as medical (MG) (VG), device paracorporeal pulsatile (PP), continuous (PC), intracorporeal (IC), types LVAD, BiVAD, RVAD, systemic...
