Single-lung Transplant Recipients
• BACKGROUND Many benefits and adverse effects of positioning are related to changes in ventilation and perfusion. A number of unique factors related to the allograft make the effects of positioning difficult to determine in single-lung transplant recipients. • OBJECTIVES To determine the effect of 3 body positions (supine, lateral with allograft lung down, and lateral with native lung down) on...

متن کاملMycobacterial infections in lung transplant recipients.
BACKGROUND Immunosuppression and chronic lung disease are known risk factors for mycobacterial infection and might be expected to develop with an increased frequency in lung transplant recipients. We therefore sought to document the incidence and type of mycobacterial infections in a large lung transplant program. METHODS A retrospective review of 219 transplant procedures (60 single lung tra...
متن کاملBronchiolitis obliterans in single-lung transplant recipients.
The presentation and clinical course of bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) in single-lung transplant (SLT) recipients has thus far not been well described. We retrospectively analyzed the serial spirometry of 15 SLT patients with BO. All the patients fulfilled the criteria for BO syndrome, and 11 of the 15 had histologically documented BO. Based on serial FEV1 analysis, we identified three patterns ...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus Viremia in Lung Transplant Recipients Receiving
Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease is an important cause of organ transplant-related morbidity and mortality. During the last 5 years at our institution, prophylactic ganciclovir and hyperimmune globulin have been routinely administered to lung transplant recipients whenever the donor or the recipient was CMV antibody-positive. We sought to assess the efficacy of prophylaxis on viremia, ...
