NEEDS STATEMENT

There is a critical need for enhancing comprehension within the field of transplantation care due to constant innovations. It has been observed that physicians within transplant teams often exhibit a limited scope of expertise, particularly concerning overarching organ-wide trends and methodologies. Moreover, some practitioners lack the necessary knowledge to fully adopt a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to patient care. To bridge this gap, this conference aims to provide attendees with the latest developments in transplantation technology, outlining advancements in Xenotransplantation. Additionally, discussions will be held on the transplant financial process as it relates to patient care, and attendees will be equipped with novel methods for patient education and compliance.

TARGET AUDIENCE

This activity is intended for physicians, transplant coordinators, social workers, students, residents, fellows and other healthcare professionals.
