Yang N, Vittorio J, King LY. Pediatric liver transplant recipients are not just young adults: The importance of a structured health care transition program in adult transplant centers. Liver Transpl 2024; 30:945-959. [PMID: 38915180 DOI: 10.1097/lvt.0000000000000401] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
Health care transition (HCT) is a vulnerable period that continues into adulthood, even after the transfer of care. Given the growing population of pediatric liver transplant recipients reaching young adulthood, the need for a standardized and multidisciplinary approach to transition that spans from pediatric to adult care is becoming more imperative. In this article, we review the unique challenges and barriers to successful HCT that adolescent and young adults (AYAs) who have undergone liver transplant face, highlight the gap in transition care in the adult setting, and present the Six Core Elements of Health Care Transition TM as a framework that can be used by adult providers to incorporate AYAs systematically and collaboratively into adult practice. Multidisciplinary HCT programs should be the standard of care for all AYAs with liver transplant, and while implementation is a necessary first step, ongoing efforts to increase awareness, funding, and research on HCTs into adulthood are needed.

Abstract
Contraception is a significant part of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health (SRH) care for adolescents and young adults (AYA). While providers may assume that AYA with chronic illness are not sexually active, studies have shown that there are no differences in their sexual practices compared to their counterparts without an illness. This assumption may result in less SRH screening, preventative services, and counseling by providers resulting in decreased basic sexual knowledge, increased risk of unplanned pregnancy, and other health disparities. Sexually active AYA with medical complexity are particularly in need of contraception for a variety of reasons. A better understanding of the complexities around contraception counseling can help increase utilization rates, improve shared-decision making around family planning, and reduce the stigma around sexual health counseling in this population. We have included three sections. First, a general overview of contraception methods. Next, an overview of contraceptive methods currently available, their efficacy, and medical eligibility criteria for their use in AYA who have certain characteristics or medical conditions. Finally, cases adapted from real clinical scenarios to highlight specific recommendations for contraception in AYA women living HIV, autoimmune conditions, and those who have received a solid organ transplant. This information will help providers to consider the multiple factors that influence contraception decision-making (including clinical status, thrombosis risk, medication interactions, safety), and optimize care for AYA living with chronic illness.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Pregnancy in females with kidney disease is not uncommon and is associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. The use of contraception in females with chronic kidney disease remains low. We sought to describe the perspectives of female patients with advanced chronic kidney disease on the use of contraception. Study Design Qualitative study. Setting & Participants We conducted 5 focus group interviews involving 16 adult female patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (n = 3 nondialysis nontransplant chronic kidney disease, n = 9 kidney transplant, and n = 4 kidney failure receiving dialysis) in the United States, following which thematic saturation was reached. Analytical Approach Interview transcripts were analyzed thematically. Results We identified the following 5 themes: 1) variable knowledge regarding reproductive health with kidney disease, 2) inadequate counseling about contraceptive use, 3) lack of interdisciplinary coordination regarding contraceptive use, 4) insufficient educational resources available to guide the contraceptive discussion, and 5) need for research to better understand reproductive needs in females with kidney disease. Limitations Patients were from a single center in the United States, and the study is limited by the transferability of findings to other settings. Conclusions Patients with chronic kidney disease report emotional challenges with reproductive health, lack of counseling and care coordination, and insufficient resources for contraceptive use. Strategies to strengthen these factors may improve the quality of reproductive care and increase contraceptive use for females with chronic kidney disease. Plain-Language Summary Pregnancy in females with kidney disease is common and associated with a higher risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes, but the use of contraception remains low. Little is known about female patients' experiences in contraceptive use that may contribute to low contraceptive use in this high-risk population. In the present study using focus group interviews, patients with chronic kidney disease reported emotional challenges with reproductive health, lack of counseling and care coordination, and insufficient resources for contraceptive use. Interventions are needed to strengthen these factors to improve the quality of reproductive care and increase contraceptive use for females with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many women who are solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients wish to have children after transplantation. Contraception is an important component of post-transplant planning and care, given the increased risk associated with post-transplant pregnancies. We sought to understand patient attitudes and concerns about post-transplant contraception and pregnancy. METHODS Following a comprehensive literature review, our team developed a survey that was administered to female SOT recipients of childbearing age. We used descriptive and inferential statistics to characterize participant views RESULTS: A total of 243 transplant recipients completed the survey (80.7% response rate). The mean age of respondents was 37.5 years (±8.1 years), 66.7% were kidney recipients, and 40.7% were within the first year after transplant. The most common concerns among respondents included fetal and maternal health complications. Participants generally did not agree that transplant recipients should be advised to avoid pregnancy. There was strong support for shared decision-making about pregnancy after transplantation CONCLUSION: Understanding patient perspectives can help transplant providers make better care recommendations and support patient autonomy in reproductive decisions post-transplant. Given that there are some differences in views by transplant type, individualized conversations between patients and providers are needed.

Abstract
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) in pregnancy has many unique considerations. Evidence provided from single center studies with patient level data and nationwide population studies provide valuable insight into this complex situation. Because a planned pregnancy is a safer pregnancy, preconception counseling is a crucial opportunity to optimize care and risk stratify women with AIH. Women with chronic liver disease who receive preconception advice and counseling are more likely to achieve stable liver disease at conception and undergo appropriate variceal surveillance. Loss of biochemical response in pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes in unstable disease. New onset AIH in pregnancy should be managed with classical treatment regimens. The continued use of immunosuppression in pregnancy, with the exception of mycophenolate mofetil, has not shown to adversely affect the rates of stillbirth or congenital malformation. Previously adopted immunosuppression withdrawal paradigms in pregnancy should no longer be considered advantageous, because remission loss postdelivery is likely (12%-86%). Population studies, report improved outcomes with preterm birth rates falling from 20% to 9%-13% in AIH pregnancies over a 20-year period. Newer data have also demonstrated an increased risk of gestational diabetes and hypertensive complications in AIH pregnancy, which has implications for management and preeclampsia prevention with aspirin use. This review aims to provide the framework to guide and manage pregnancy in AIH outlining pearls and pitfalls to ensure optimal outcomes for mother, baby and to reduce variation in practice.

Abstract
Placed in a historical context, this overview focuses on post-transpant pregnancy, fatherhood, and contraception in women and men. The critical importance of early reproductive counseling because of improved sexual function and the early return of ovulation and menses post-transplant is emphasized. We explain the decision making regarding contraception choices. The available data on the safety of immunosuppressive drugs in pregnancy, and for men desiring fatherhood, are detailed. The risk of maternal ingestion of mycophenolate products on the in utero fetus is considered and contrasted with the lack of concern for their use by men fathering children. Pregnancy risks to the allograft, baby, and mother are discussed. An infant's exposure to specific immunosuppressant medications through breastfeeding is reviewed. The ethics and realities of post-transplant parenthood are explored.

Abstract
The majority of Americans make their sexual debut during their adolescent years. Preventing pregnancy and STI during this period is vital to ensuring health and safety. As survival has improved after pediatric SOT, chronically immunosuppressed adolescents seek guidance in their medical home on matters of sexual health. Transplant practitioners often do not feel equipped to fully address these needs. This review serves as an introductory sexual preventive care resource for adolescent and young adult (AYA) SOT recipients. First, we review data on safety, efficacy, and use of contraceptive options currently available for transplant recipients with child-bearing potential. Then, we suggest a personalized sexual health discussion focusing on the diagnosis and prevention of STIs in adolescent and young adult transplant recipients. Finally, we present recommendations for STI screening of asymptomatic patients, use of index of suspicion and diagnostic testing in symptomatic patients, and opportunities to optimize STI prevention strategies. Data compiled from studies of adult SOT recipients, general population studies, and published guidelines are often extrapolated for use, as limited data exist in AYA SOT recipients. This informational dearth underscores the need for future research to better characterize the unique needs of AYA SOT recipients.
