Advocacy and PFEP Statements, May 2023

OPTN Optimization Initiative

The Society of Pediatric Liver Transplantation has written this statement as an initial community response to the Health Resources and Services Administration’s OPTN Modernization Initiative. We look forward to engaging with HRSA, the OPTN, and the transplant community on initiatives to modernize and improve transplant in the U.S. – particularly for children awaiting and after life-saving liver transplant.

PFEP

In the transplant community, our hope is to see our nation work together to improve the process we have now, and first and foremost, prioritize children. We need to start thinking of the children first when it comes to creating the policies that shape our transplant system. No child should be left without a viable organ option!

SPLIT-IRTA Email ListServ

The SPLIT leadership recognized the need for real-time exchange of pediatric data in this unprecedented time. In that spirit we are partnering with IRTA to develop a listserv to help track and address both COVID 19 related queries as well as general discussions related to the care of hepatology, pre- and post-liver and intestinal transplant patients. Open to all Health-Care professionals!

COVID -19 Post Liver Transplantation Data Collection Registry for Pediatric Patients (0-21 years)
