Objectives
  1. Identify and discuss from an interprofessional perspective appropriate candidates for transplant based on many factors including infectious disease risks, comorbidity risks, disease specific risk factors. Patient selection will require consideration of many of these disease factors.
  2. Describe the likelihood of developing C. difficile as well as methods to prevent transmission, the unique risks associated with this infection in transplant patients, and list methods that prevent infection including how practice changes effect outcomes.
  3. Describe outcomes after allogeneic stem cell transplantation for patients with refractory AML or advanced MDS, including an outline of new treatment practices that may impact outcomes, and from an interprofessional perspective discuss availabilities of novel clinical trials and outcomes associated with new approaches
  4. Describe differences and potential risks and benefits associated with different donor choices from an interprofessional perspective with an emphasis on developing a consistent approach to donor selection through systematic evaluation of various options.
