Pulmonary and Critical Care Considerations of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

By Ayman O. Soubani

Pulmonary complications following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remain a significant concern for healthcare professionals. These complications can lead to increased morbidity and mortality, impacting the overall success of this important therapeutic modality. In order to provide comprehensive guidance on managing the pulmonary and critical care complications associated with HSCT, Dr. Ayman O. Soubani has authored a groundbreaking book, aptly titled “Pulmonary and Critical Care Complications of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Practical Guide”.

HSCT is a procedure that involves the transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells, which are responsible for producing blood cells, in order to treat various malignant and non-malignant conditions. The outcomes of HSCT have been improving over time, leading to an increase in the number of cases being performed worldwide. However, post-transplant complications, such as graft vs. host disease and conditioning regimen-related complications, continue to present significant challenges for healthcare providers.

Dr. Soubani’s comprehensive guide begins with an overview of HSCT and graft vs. host disease, providing readers with a solid foundation of knowledge. The subsequent chapters delve into the specific pulmonary complications that can arise following HSCT, including immunological changes in the lungs, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, bronchiolitis obliterans, and pulmonary fibrosis. Additionally, the book addresses other complications that may arise in HSCT patients, such as neurologic, renal, gastrointestinal, and cardiac complications.

Each chapter follows a consistent format, ensuring that readers can easily navigate through the book and find the information they need. The scope of each complication is defined, and the epidemiology, risk factors, diagnostic approach, management, outcome, predictors of outcome, and future directions are all thoroughly discussed. This practical approach allows healthcare providers to gain a comprehensive understanding of each complication and its management.

Furthermore, Dr. Soubani addresses important aspects related to the care of HSCT patients that go beyond the pulmonary and critical care complications. These include topics such as provider burnout, nursing care, intensive care unit organization, nutritional support, and pulmonary and physical rehabilitation. By covering these essential considerations, the book aims to provide a holistic approach to the care of HSCT patients.

Dr. Ayman O. Soubani is an internationally recognized expert in pulmonary and critical care medicine, with extensive experience in caring for HSCT patients. His expertise and wealth of knowledge are evident throughout the book, making it an invaluable resource for pulmonologists, critical care physicians, transplant specialists, oncologists, and relevant trainees.

With its 515 pages, the book offers in-depth coverage of the pulmonary and critical care complications of HSCT. It is published by Springer and is the first edition of this practical guide, released on June 15, 2023. The book is written in English, ensuring accessibility to healthcare professionals globally.

“Pulmonary and Critical Care Complications of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Practical Guide” provides the necessary guidance for healthcare professionals to effectively manage the complex pulmonary and critical care complications that can arise following HSCT. By utilizing the information and expertise presented in this book, healthcare providers can improve patient outcomes and enhance the overall success of HSCT procedures.
