Serum Ammonia Screening and Donor Mollicutes Detection for Hyperammonemia Syndrome Post–Lung Transplantation: A Prospective Observational Study
HS was a rare complication in our LT cohort. Daily post-LT SAS might add to early HS diagnosis and treatment and is potentially associated with improved outcome. Donor screening with Mollicutes PCR has limited predictive value for HS post-LT.
