Session Summary: A successful discharge for patients with VAD or other supportive therapies (continuous infusions for pulmonary hypertension and heart failure patients) requires thoughtful planning and education. This symposium addresses topics geared towards helping patients successfully discharge to (and remain) home, including self-management/self-efficacy, discharge medications, avoiding readmission, preparing caregivers of patients with devices, and addressing the issues most important to patients: driving, showering, drinking, sex and traveling.

Session Summary: The recognition that not all cases of lung allograft dysfunction could be described accurately within the bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) terminology led to the development of a new overarching descriptor (CLAD) to embrace both obstructive and restrictive allograft dysfunction. How to detect, diagnose, and manage suspected cases is described based on sound physiological and radiological principles. Exclusion criteria are discussed as well as special circumstances.
