The Alfred Hospital Lung Transplant Experience. Clin Transpl. 2014;:99-108 Authors: Paraskeva MA, Westall GP, Pilcher D, McGiffin D, Levvey BJ, Williams TJ, Snell GI Abstract The management of patients undergoing lung transplantation has continued to evolve, leading to improvements in 90-day and 1-year survival. The significant advancements in donor management and utilization at our center have led to significant increases in lung transplant activity without any compromise in recipient outcomes. Through the use of a patient-centered multidisciplinary model of care involved in all aspects of recipient management, from assessment and waitlisting to pre-, peri- and post-operative care, our lung transplant outcomes represent 2015 world's best lung transplant practice.
