Oshima Alice Parish Jacqueline B. Henson Mariya Samoylova Donna Niedzwiecki Lisa McElroy Lindsay King Julius M. Wilder Kara Wegermann Clinical Transplantation ABSTRACT Background Transplantation of hepatitis C virus (HCV) nucleic acid (NAT) positive organs is associated with shorter time to transplant and decreased risk of death on the waiting list. Treatment for HCV post‐transplant is well‐tolerated, successful, and leads to similar transplant outcomes to patients transplanted with HCV NAT− organs. Despite these outcomes, not all patients consent to receive HCV NAT+ organs, and factors associated with consent are not well‐known. Methods This retrospective single‐center study of adult patients listed for heart, liver, lung, and kidney transplant aimed to determine whether sociodemographic and organ‐specific disparities exist in consent for HCV NAT+ donor organs. Results Of 2788 transplant candidates, 44% ( N = 1229) consented to receive an HCV NAT+ organ. Patients who designated English as their preferred language were more likely to consent compared to a non‐English preference (45% vs. 19%, p < 0.001). Consent rates were highest amongst patients listed for liver transplantation compared to kidney, heart, and lung transplants (67%, N = 319 vs. 42%, N = 602 vs. 38%, N = 159 vs. 32%, N = 149; p < 0.001). Conclusions Overall, more efforts are needed to ensure that all patients who may benefit from consenting for HCV NAT+ organs are appropriately educated in their language of choice on the risks and benefits. 10.1111/ctr.70186 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
