In the United States, regulatory changes dictate telehealth activities. Telehealth was available to patients on home dialysis as early as 2019, allowing patients to opt for telehealth with home as the originating site and without geographic restriction. In 2020, coronavirus disease 2019 was an unexpected accelerant for telehealth use in the United States. Within nephrology, remote patient monitoring has most often been applied to the care of patients on home dialysis modalities. The effect that remote and virtual technologies have on home dialysis patients, telehealth and health care disparities, and health care providers' workflow changes are discussed here. Moreover, the future use of remote and virtual technologies to include artificial intelligence and artificial neural network model to optimize and personalize treatments will be highlighted. Despite these advances in technology challenges continue to exist, leaving room for future innovation to improve patient health outcome and equity. Prospective studies are needed to further understand the effect of using virtual technologies and remote monitoring on home dialysis outcomes, cost, and patient engagement.

of donation on future pregnancies as well as the impact of pregnancy complications on postdonation outcomes. In February of 2023, the American Society of Transplantation Women’s Health Community of Practice held a virtual Controversies Conference on reproductive health, contraception and pregnancy after transplantation and living donation. Experts in the field presented the available data. Smaller breakout sessions were created to discuss findings, identify knowledge gaps and develop recommendations. Herein we present the conference findings related to living donation. The evidence reviewed shows that gestational hypertension and gestational diabetes mellitus pre-kidney donation have been associated with an increased risk of developing postdonation hypertension and diabetes mellitus respectively, without increasing the risk of developing an estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 ml/min postdonation. The risk of preeclampsia in living kidney donors increases to 4-10% and low dose aspirin may help reduce that risk. Little is known about the financial burden of living donors that become pregnant, their risk of postpartum depression or the optimal time between donation and conception. The data on living liver donors is even scarcer. The creation of a registry of donor candidates may help answer many of these questions and in turn educate prospective donors so they can make an informed choice. Living kidney and liver donation significantly increase the organ supply to make lifesaving transplant possible, offering a survival advantage to the recipient and cost savings to the society. Of all living donors 40% are women of childbearing age. However limited data exist regarding the impact of donation on future pregnancies as well as the impact of pregnancy complications on postdonation outcomes.
