Socioeconomic Status and Major Adverse Transplant Events in Pediatric Heart Transplant Recipients
In this cohort study of pediatric HT recipients, there was no difference in posttransplant outcomes among recipients stratified by SES, a notable improvement from prior studies. These findings may be explained by state-level health reform, standardized posttransplant care, and early awareness of outcome disparities.
