Pre-transplant Evaluation

Pre-transplant evaluation is a comprehensive medical assessment done before a patient receives an organ transplant. Its purpose is to ensure the patient is healthy enough for surgery, identify any conditions that might affect the transplant’s success, and prepare for the post-surgical period. This involves blood tests, imaging scans, heart and lung evaluations, and reviewing medical history. The process helps determine if the patient is a suitable candidate, plans for medication management, and minimizes potential risks, ultimately enhancing the chances of a successful transplant and long-term recovery.
