  • Shmuel Shoham, MD / Ghady Haidar, MD - What’s New, and What’s Next? Customizing COVID-19 Prevention Approaches in Transplant Patients to Increase Uptake, Access, and Efficacy

    30/06/2023 Duration: 57min

    Go online to PeerView.com/ERY860 to view the activity, download slides and practice aids, and complete the post-test to earn credit. Hundreds of thousands of organ transplant recipients living in the United States, who must take immunosuppressive medication, are at an increased risk of COVID-19 infection. Tixagevimab co-packaged with cilgavimab has lost its emergency use authorization as prevention for immunocompromised patients because of its lack of efficacy against newer variants. In the absence of prevention agents (other than vaccines) and because the prevention of COVID-19 is shifting to a more personalized, patient-specific approach, the complexity of clinical decision-making has increased. Additionally, patients may face barriers in obtaining COVID-19 prevention. In this activity, based on a recent live symposium, expert faculty and a patient advocate discuss strategies to improve the uptake of COVID-19 prevention and increase patient and clinician engagement and how to develop a plan to customize COV

Despite the availability of testing, vaccines, and treatments, COVID-19 remains a threat—no one can predict when a new strain might surface and many questions remain. The virus that causes COVID-19 is designated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the clinical spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 infection ranges from asymptomatic to critical and fatal illness. Most symptomatic infections are mild; however, a significant number of patients have severe disease requiring hospitalization. Hospitalization and death are more likely in high-risk populations, including older people, individuals with underlying medical problems, and those affected by systemic health and social inequities (ie, minorities, immigrant populations, people of low socioeconomic status, and the disabled). Therapies such as antiviral agents and monoclonal antibodies are available in the United Sta

Solid organ transplant recipients may be at increased risk for COVID-19 because they are immunosuppressed and less likely to mount effective immune responses to vaccination. In this educational symposium based on a live event, a panel of expert faculty address the identification of transplant patients who would likely derive benefit from anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and strategies that can be used to overcome barriers to COVID-19 pre-exposure prophylaxis access.

It is estimated that there are about 1 million adults in the United States who identify as transgender, and this number may be higher depending on the surveys used, the questions asked, and the diversity of subcultures within the transgender community. Although being transgender is not in itself a medical condition, transgender individuals have unique healthcare needs and face barriers to screening and preventive care, particularly with cancer screening. Consequently, these patients may receive lower quality medical care than the general population as a result of stigma, discrimination, and providers’ lack of knowledge about gender identity. Additionally, transgender patients may only seek medical care as part of gender affirmation and avoid primary care health concerns, including screenings. This activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, will focus on improving cancer pre

Despite a widening array of effective HIV prevention tools and a massive scale-up of HIV treatment in recent years, there has been unequal progress with increasing access to treatment and reducing the number of new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths, resulting in several vulnerable populations being left behind.

No single prevention method or approach can stop the HIV epidemic on its own. Several interventions have proved highly effective in reducing the risk of, and protecting against, HIV infection, including male and female condoms, the use of antiretroviral medicines as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and the treatment of people living with HIV, to reduce viral load and prevent onward transmission. Despite the availability of this widening array of effective HIV prevention tools and a massive scale-up of HIV treatment in recent years, new infections among adults globally have not decreased sufficiently, and infections have actually increased in the United States among African American gay and bisexual men and Hispanic/Latino gay and bisexual men. Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued clinical practice guidelines for PrEP use in the United States, numero
