Pediatric lung transplant care

Pediatric lung transplant care involves the medical and supportive treatment provided to children who have received a new lung or lungs due to severe respiratory diseases. This care includes managing medications to prevent organ rejection, closely monitoring lung function, and addressing any complications. Pediatric pulmonologists work with a dedicated healthcare team to ensure the child's overall health, emotional well-being, and development. Regular follow-ups, pulmonary rehabilitation, and education for families are essential components to help children thrive after transplantation and improve their quality of life. The goal is to support the child in leading an active, healthy life.
