Changes in Medication Adherence Across the Posttransplant Period in Pediatric Organ Transplant Recipients
Introduction
Limited research has explored immunosuppressant medication adherence over time in pediatric transplant patients, who often struggle with posttransplant regimen adherence, resulting in poor outcomes.
Methods
This study investigated the longitudinal growth in immunosuppressive medication levels following transplantation. Medication level variability index (MLVI) scores from tacrolimus blood levels of pediatric organ transplant recipients at a major medical center were analyzed. Linear mixed effect models (LMEM) assessed individual MLVI change trajectories and predictors of growth, exploring both linear and curvilinear growth patterns posttransplant.
Results
A sample of 181 patients with at least 4 years of MLVI data were analyzed. Growth curve modeling identified the cubic model as the best fit for the quarterly MLVI values, which significantly decreased within the first 2 years posttransplant before stabilizing. Gender significantly predicted MLVI change, with females showing greater MLVI decreases, while age at transplant did not significantly predict changes. Significant variation in MLVI among individual patients was found in all models.
Conclusions
The study demonstrated a significant decrease in MLVI values over time, indicating improved medication adherence in pediatric transplant patients, with females exhibiting more adherent growth patterns than males. Future research should aim to identify pediatric patients at high risk of nonadherence.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Transplantation: The Journal of Clinical and Translational Research aims to serve as a channel of rapid communication for all those involved in the care of patients who require, or have had, organ or tissue transplants, including: kidney, intestine, liver, pancreas, islets, heart, heart valves, lung, bone marrow, cornea, skin, bone, and cartilage, viable or stored.
Published monthly, Clinical Transplantation’s scope is focused on the complete spectrum of present transplant therapies, as well as also those that are experimental or may become possible in future. Topics include:
Immunology and immunosuppression;
Patient preparation;
Social, ethical, and psychological issues;
Complications, short- and long-term results;
Artificial organs;
Donation and preservation of organ and tissue;
Translational studies;
Advances in tissue typing;
Updates on transplant pathology;.
Clinical and translational studies are particularly welcome, as well as focused reviews. Full-length papers and short communications are invited. Clinical reviews are encouraged, as well as seminal papers in basic science which might lead to immediate clinical application. Prominence is regularly given to the results of cooperative surveys conducted by the organ and tissue transplant registries.
Clinical Transplantation: The Journal of Clinical and Translational Research is essential reading for clinicians and researchers in the diverse field of transplantation: surgeons; clinical immunologists; cryobiologists; hematologists; gastroenterologists; hepatologists; pulmonologists; nephrologists; cardiologists; and endocrinologists. It will also be of interest to sociologists, psychologists, research workers, and to all health professionals whose combined efforts will improve the prognosis of transplant recipients.
