28 Citations | In conclusion, whilst COVID-19 infection was more common in the wait list patients, a higher COVID-19 associated mortality rate was seen in transplant recipients, resulting in comparable overall mortality rates. |
| These reports demonstrate a range of symptoms, clinical severity, and disease course in solid organ transplant recipients with COVID‐19, including two hospitalized patients and two patients managed entirely in the outpatient setting. | |
| Understanding the impact of COVID‐19 on waitlist patients in comparison to transplant recipients may aid centers in weighing the risks and benefits of transplantation in the setting of ongoing COVID‐19. | |
| COVID-19 will lead to a marked loss of transplant opportunities and a significantly larger national waiting list. | |
39 Citations | Management of immunosuppressive therapy and drug-drug interactions in liver transplant recipients infected with COVID-19 should be cautiously practiced to prevent rejection and effectively treat the underlying infection. |
| In this initial cohort, transplant recipients with COVID‐19 appear to have more severe outcomes, although testing limitations likely led to undercounting of mild/asymptomatic cases. | |
289 Citations | Thus, our findings suggest COVID-19 infection in kidney transplant patients may be severe, requiring intensive care admission. |
| These successfully treated cases can provide helpful information about the management of COVID‐19 in renal transplant recipients. | |
| Clinical presentation of Covid-19 in kidney transplant recipients was similar to what has been described in the general population. | |
| Management of COVID‐19 in kidney transplant recipients should include treatment of the infection, regulation of immunosuppression, and supportive therapy. |
