Update: 2025-08-15
Description
In this week's replay episode from 3 years ago, we delve into the world of pediatric heart transplantation and the impact that race or insurance status may have on outcomes. What are the factors that explain worse outcomes for black children waiting for a heart transplant? How is the PHTS Racial Disparity Taskforce working to reduce inequities in this field? What role does insurance status have on these outcomes? We speak with noted heart failure and transplantation expert, Dr. Neha Bansal who is Associate Professor of Pediatrics at The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai about this recent PHTS multicenter study.
