Early aspirin use and the development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy in pediatric heart transplant recipients: A pediatric heart transplant society analysis
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) remains a leading cause of graft loss in pediatric heart transplant (HTx) recipients. Adult literature suggests that aspirin (ASA) use in the early post-HTx period may reduce the risk of CAV. This study aimed to determine the impact of early ASA use on the development of CAV in pediatric HTx recipients.
