Abstract:
The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation Consensus for Perioperative Utilization of Extracorporeal Life Support in Lung Transplantation consists of 111 Delphi-derived statements across 3 separate manuscripts. These statements aim to provide comprehensive phase-of-care recommendations for international multidisciplinary teams to use in their clinical practice from time of recipient waitlisting to six-months post-hospital discharge. In this article, the multidisciplinary author group provides an abbreviated high-level summary of the consensus for the journal reader.
