Donor screen

  • Bacterial: syphilis, urine and blood cultures, bronchoalveolar lavage
  • Viral: CMV, EBV, HIV HBV, HCV, HSV, VZV, HTLV-1
  • Other: Strongyloides, Chagas (sometimes)

Recipient Screen

  • Prednisone: TB/HBV/Strongy
  • Fludarabine:
    • Lasts 6-12 months after last dose
    • Listeria, PCP, and Nocardia
  • Rituximab: as well as B-cell, can allow HBV and PJP infections
  • Adalimumab: T-cell deficiency for months after last dose
  • TNF-alpha inhibitors: like prednisone

Early Infections
