The Impact of Delayed Graft Function on Long Term Graft Survival Adjusted for Donor Kidney Quality Assessed by the KDPI.
Nephrology Charite Campus Mitte, Charite Universitaetsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany
IntroductionDelayed graft function (DGF) is associated with impaired graft survival in kidney transplant recipients. The kidney donor profile index (KDPI) is increasingly evaluated as a…2017 American Transplant Congress
Correlation of Donor Clinical and Histopathological Characteristics with Graft Function in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: There is lack of consensus in the perceived accuracy of frozen biopsy interpretation. Interobserver variability in assessment of pre-implantation biopsies limits its value to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Zero-Time Biopsy of Potential Donor Kidneys to Aid Decision-Making: A 9-Year Single-Center Experience.
Necker-Enfants Malades, Tenon and European Georges Pompidou Hospitals, Paris, France
The added benefits of zero-time biopsy of a potential donor kidney on top of standard donor biological and clinical data to aid in the decision…2017 American Transplant Congress
Using Scheduled Commercial Flights for Transport of Liver for Transplant.
Transport of liver procured from a brain dead donor (BDD) to the receiving hospital by chartered private flight (PF) is a costly endeavour. Also the…2017 American Transplant Congress
Extended Ex Vivo Kidney Perfusion Using Hemopure as an Oxygen Carrier: A Method to Preserve, Assess and Repair Discarded Organs.
Transplant Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA
Background: Hypothermic non-oxygenated machine perfusion (HMP) is commonly used in kidney preservation, providing some advantage over static cold storage, as well as flow and resistance…2017 American Transplant Congress
Longer Anastomotic Time Leads to Delayed Graft Function.
Background: Delayed graft function (DGF) occurs at variable rates in renal transplant recipients. It can be deleterious to renal allograft in long term. Various factors…2017 American Transplant Congress
Model to Predict Prolonged Delayed Graft Function (DGF) Following Kidney Transplantation from Deceased Donor with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI Tx).
1Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ; 2Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN
Background Our aim is to develop a model to predict prolonged DGF following AKI Tx.Methods AKI Tx (donor terminal Cr>/=2) from 2003 to 2016 were…2017 American Transplant Congress
Does Choice of Induction Agent Affect Outcomes in Kidney Transplants from Deceased Donors with Acute Kidney Injury and Prolonged Cold Ischemia Time?
Nephrology, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY
Kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) have a higher rate of DGF but similar outcomes to kidneys without AKI, although most data are with kidneys…2017 American Transplant Congress
Lactate Level Immediate Post-Liver Transplantation Is a Predictor of Early Allograft Dysfunction.
Background; Early allograft dysfunction (EAD) after liver transplantation (LT) is defined as a peak values of aminotransferase >2000 IU/mL during the first week or an…2017 American Transplant Congress
Eliminating False Positive Virtual Crossmatch Results for Lung Transplant Candidates by Using Multiple Antibody Testing Platforms.
Purpose: At present, immunologic risk for lung transplant patients is evaluated based on Virtual crossmatch (VXM) by comparing recipient's HLA antibodies detected by Single antigen…
