Assessment of Information Provided on Infectious Risk in Solid Organ Transplantation
An observational study of Transplantation Infection and Pulmonary Transplantation, run by Fondation Hôpital Saint-Joseph at 8 sites in France.
Trial summary
Solid organ transplantation (lung, kidney, liver, and heart) is a major therapeutic option for many end-stage chronic diseases. In France, several hundred patients undergo transplantation each year, supported by advances in surgery, immunosuppression, and care organization (e.g., 308 lung transplants in 2023, +2.5%).

About this study
Solid organ transplantation (lung, kidney, liver, and heart) is a major therapeutic option for many end-stage chronic diseases. In France, several hundred patients undergo transplantation each year, supported by advances in surgery, immunosuppression, and care organization (e.g., 308 lung transplants in 2023, +2.5%).
This trend includes broader indications, greater use of "marginal" donors, and an ageing recipient population (mean age of lung transplant recipients: 53 years in 2022). Infections remain a leading cause of post-transplant morbidity and mortality: up to 19.2% of early deaths and the main cause of death in the first year. Incidence is especially high after lung transplantation, and the infection risk persists lifelong.

Patients receive education on high-risk exposures (food, travel, social contacts, animals, leisure), yet no standardized international guidelines exist. In France, counseling varies widely between centers and is often based on limited evidence. Patient adherence is poorly documented and sometimes low (≈18% for dietary advice).
No French data currently describe the actual recommendations given, how patients apply them, or their impact on quality of life. We therefore propose a multicenter cross-sectional study in lung (and heart-lung) transplant recipients to describe the recommendations provided, assess their concordance with patient behaviors, and identify discrepancies. Findings may help harmonize recommendations while accounting for the specificities of lung transplantation. The study will later be extended to kidney, liver, and heart transplant recipients.
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
