How Is the Transplant Process Managed?

The transplantation process involves several critical steps:
1. Evaluation: Comprehensive medical, psychological, and social evaluations determine if the child is a suitable candidate for transplantation.
2. Listing: Eligible candidates are placed on a waiting list managed by organizations like the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS).
3. Surgery: Once a suitable donor organ is available, the child undergoes transplantation surgery.
4. Post-Transplant Care: Intensive follow-up care is required to manage immunosuppression, monitor for rejection, and address any complications.
