Increased Length of Stay of the Donor Decreases Heart Transplant Recipient Survival
Purpose: We hypothesize that the longer the cardiac donor is in the hospital prior to procurement, the worse the heart transplant (tx) recipient outcome for…2018 American Transplant Congress
Recipient Outcomes in Age Mismatched Living Kidney Transplants from Donors > 60 Years: A UNOS Database Analysis
Indiana University, Indianapolis.
Background: Donor and recipient age mismatch kidney transplantation are known to affect graft survival. We examined the impact of age mismatching on graft survival after…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Age-Matching on Graft Function and Graft Survival after Living Donor Kidney Transplantation
Introduction: To overcome the shortage of organs, the influence of age matching in living donor kidney transplantation should be studied. We analyzed the impact of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Two Decades of Eurotransplant Senior Program (ESP): Time on Dialysis Independently Impacts Patient Survival, Allograft Survival and Quality of Life after Kidney Transplantation
In 1999, the Eurotransplant Senior Program (ESP) was implemented and allocates kidneys from deceased-donors ≥65 years to kidney transplant recipients ≥65 years (ESP-KTRs). The ESP…2018 American Transplant Congress
Multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards Model for Estimating Long-Term Risk of Aging Kidney Transplant Recipients
Henry Ford Transplant Institute, Detroit, MI.
Purpose: The growing number of elderly kidney transplant recipients (KTR) presents an opportunity to analyze and predict long-term outcomes and risk in this aging population.Methods:…2018 American Transplant Congress
Senolytic Drug Treatment Attenuates mtDNA-Mediated Inflammatory Injury in Old Donors and Prolongs Cardiac Allograft Survival
Introduction: Solid organ transplantation has seen a increase in the utilization of older organs. Here, we investigate how aging-associated kinetics of damage associated molecular patterns…2018 American Transplant Congress
Exploring the Impact of Recipient Age with Kidney Donor Risk Index and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate at One Year Following Kidney Transplant
Background: Various kidney donor risk indexes (KDRI) have been developed to predict graft survival with various combinations of donor and recipient characteristics. The aim of…2018 American Transplant Congress
Liver Transplants from Older Donors Have Worse Outcomes in Elderly Recipients with Renal Dysfunction
Background: Most end stage liver disease patients suffer from concomitant renal insufficiency. We aimed to study influence of donor age on outcomes in elderly liver…2018 American Transplant Congress
Prevalence of Frailty among Kidney Transplant Recipients in the United States
1JHU, Baltimore; 2University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Frailty, a measure of physiologic reserve, increases the risk of delayed graft function, longer length of stay, early hospital readmission, immunosuppression intolerance, and mortality among…2018 American Transplant Congress
Age Stratified Efficacy and Safety Outcomes of Induction Immunosuppression in Renal Transplantation
Purpose: Rejection and infection remain a leading concern for decreased graft survival after renal transplant (RT). Induction immunosuppression is associated with a decreased risk of…
