Presentation Transcript

  1. Pediatric Transplantation Committee Spring 2014

  2. Ongoing Committee Initiatives Pediatric Transplant Training & Experience • Fall regional meeting feedback recurring themes: • Negative impact on pediatric candidates’ access • Case volumes too high • Transplanting larger pediatric patients should not require “pediatric component” approval • Lack of supporting data

  3. Changes in Response • Simplify! • Only focus on experience with transplant patients younger than 18 • Experience not required over 5 year period • Data • No significant numerical data

  4. Pediatric Kidney Component Qualifying Criteria

  5. Pediatric Liver Component Qualifying Criteria

  6. Pediatric Heart Component Qualifying Criteria

  7. Pediatric Lung Component Qualifying Criteria

  8. Additional Considerations • Conditional Pathway for “Pediatric Component” • Eliminate Alternative Pathway for Predominantly Pediatric Programs • Acute fulminant liver or cardiac failure requiring urgent transplant in an adult program for logistical reasons

  9. Questions? • Heung Bae Kim, M.D. Committee Chairheung.kim@childrens.harvard.edu • Name Region # Representativename@email • Chad Waller Committee Liaisonchad.waller@unos.org
