Should lung transplant candidates with kidney dysfunction get a simultaneous lung-kidney transplant — or lung first, kidney later?
Since the 2023 safety net policy, practice has shifted toward kidney-after-lung transplant, with shorter KT waitlist times, fewer delistings, and better 1-yr survival vs SLKT in our UNOS analysis, now in @journal_CHEST.
Proud of our @MayoClinic transplant team

Out now in @journal_CHEST: First reported successful bilateral lung transplant in a patient with newly diagnosed HIV + PJP-ARDS, bridged with 80 days of VV ECMO.
1 year out: undetectable VL, no rejection, no opportunistic infections.
CD4 <200 may not be an absolute barrier.

Excited to share How #VExUS can be useful in assessing venous congestion in lung transplants!
Check Portal Vein Doppler !!! Game changer to improve outcomes in 🫁 TX ‼️

Contemporary Outcomes of Combined Lung-Liver Transplant in The United States
Combined Lung-Liver Tx yields long-term survival outcomes comparable to Lung Tx-only, even among recipients with greater clinical complexity.

Grateful for the opportunity to talk on the basics of lung ultrasound at current concepts in ECLS pre-course at Mayo Florida. A very well organized CME with a lot to learn from👏
@pkguru10 @sanjayCCM @KalagaraHari @pandompatam
Having trained in this program, I can confidently attest that the opportunities it offers are second to none. I am truly excited to witness its continued growth and look forward to seeing the future leaders who will emerge from it.

Mayo Clinic research compares methods for diagnosing pulmonary lesions, highlighting robotic bronchoscopy's safety and effectiveness. #InnovationStartsAtMayo #MayoClinicFL #MedicalResearch
📖 Full study: brnw.ch/21wPkgt
📝A review of peripheral pulmonary lesion sampling. CT-TBNA had the highest diagnostic yield (88.9%) but significant risk of complications. RAB had a similar diagnostic yield (84.8%) but reduced complications. Standard flexible bronchoscopy and rEBUS had the lowest diagnostic yield.
doi.org/10.1183/16000617.004…
🚨With 363 studies included in this meta-analysis, it is the largest study till date in this area (1/5)
(5/5) Although CT-TBNA is the most effective approach to sample PPLs, RAB has a comparable diagnostic yield with a lesser complication rate. Further prospective studies are needed comparing CT-TBNA and RAB.

Just published in Critical Care! Our multicenter, retrospective study evaluates the impact of low-dose inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in COVID-19 patients needing respiratory support. Findings suggest iNO may improve oxygenation and reduce mortality in spontaneously breathing patients but comes with increased risk of kidney injury.
