The Long and Short of Old and Cold on Renal Allograft Outcomes.
1University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; 2Saint Louis University, St. Louis.
Introduction: Donor age and cold ischemia times (CIT) have been shown to have independent and varying degrees of impact on short and long term risk…2016 American Transplant Congress
Risk Stratification for Optimized Utilization of Deceased Donor Kidneys with Acute Kidney Injury by KDIGO Criteria.
BackgroundDeceased donor kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) raise fear of poor graft outcomes to the transplant clinicians and consequently are often discarded. However, the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Influence of Cold Ischemia Time in Kidney Transplants from Small Pediatric Donors.
Clinicians may be reluctant to transplant small pediatric kidneys that also have prolonged cold ischemia time (CIT) for fear of an additional deleterious effect since…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Total Ischaemic Time, Donor Age and the Pathway of Donor Death on Graft Outcomes After Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation.
Prolonged ischaemia is a known risk factor for delayed graft function and its interaction with donor characteristics, the pathways of donor death and graft outcomes…2016 American Transplant Congress
A Novel Intra-Abdominal Cooling System Prevents Graft Warming During Implantation for Robotic-Assisted Renal Transplantation.
Background and objectiveRobotic kidney transplantation is minimal invasive and leads to decreased surgical site infection. In this stetting, warm ischemia time remains a valid concern.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Fractional Excretion of NGAL Instead of 99mTcMAG3 Renography to Monitor Resolution of Delayed Graft Function.
Nephrology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, Netherlands.
Introduction: Kidneys transplanted from extended criteria donors have a higher prevalence of delayed graft function (DGF). Early identification of factors that prolong duration of DGF…2016 American Transplant Congress
Associations of Perfusate Biomarkers and Pump Parameters with Delayed Graft Function and Deceased-Donor Kidney Allograft Function.
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is increasingly used in deceased-donor kidney transplantation, but controversy exists regarding the value of perfusion biomarkers and pump parameters for assessing…2016 American Transplant Congress
Controlled Cardiac Death Donor Program for Kidney Transplantation – Spanish Multicenter Experience with Two Years of Follow-Up.
Background: Controlled donation after cardiac death (cDCD) programs are running in several countries for years. National transplant organization (ONT) has developed a nation-wide program in…2016 American Transplant Congress
Association Between Delayed Graft Function and Long-Term Outcomes After Kidney Transplantation from Donors After Circulatory Death.
Purpose: Delayed graft function (DGF) is associated with worse long-term outcomes after kidney transplantation from donation after brain death (DBD) donors. We aimed to determine…2016 American Transplant Congress
Factors Associated with Prolonged Warm Ischemia Time Among Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Prolonged warm ischemia time (the time from organ removal from cold storage to reperfusion with warm blood) is associated with graft failure and mortality among…
