Significant Increase in Moderate to High KDPI Kidney Transplants Using a Multi-Operational Approach: Results from the COIIN (Collaborative Innovation and Improvement Network) Initiative
1Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, 2UNOS, Richmond, VA, 3Robert Wood Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ
*Purpose: Kidney transplant (KTx) utilization of moderate to high KDPI (MH-KDPI) deceased donor kidneys remains an opportunity to reduce organ discards. We participated in COIIN,…2019 American Transplant Congress
Use of Marginal Liver Donors in Pediatric Transplantation: Diverse Profiles of Use in Major Transplant Centers
*Purpose: Pediatric liver transplantation is highly specialized only a small number of centers have consistent large volume experience. We tested the hypothesis that large volume…2019 American Transplant Congress
Transmission of Infections from Organ Donor to Recipient – German Data
German Foundation for Organtransplantation (DSO), Frankfurt, Germany
*Purpose: In Europe, vigilance monitoring after organ transplant includes Serious Adverse Events (SAE) as well as Serious Adverse Reactions (SAR). All SAE and SAR related…2019 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Cold Ischemia Time on DCD Kidney Transplant Outcomes
Transplant Surgery Division, Dept of Surgery, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY
*Purpose: Kidney transplantation (KTX) from Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) donors is associated with high rates of delayed graft function (DGF) and potential worse graft…2019 American Transplant Congress
Organ Procurement Organization Surgeon Improves Utilization of Livers from Pediatric Donors
*Purpose: Pediatric liver transplant centers tend to send their own procurement team for organ assessment and recovery. TXSB organ procurement organization (OPO) hired a full-time…2019 American Transplant Congress
Senescent Cell Clearance with Senolytic Drugs Improves Cardiac Allograft Survival by Targeting mt-DNA Mediated Immune Responses
*Purpose: Older organs represent an underutilized potential. We dissected alloimmune responses when transplanting older organs and tested if the depletion of senescent cells in older…2019 American Transplant Congress
Deceased-Donor Acute Kidney Injury Associates with Less BK Viremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients
For the DDS Consortium, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: BK viremia (BKV) and polyomavirus nephropathy are kidney transplant complications that contribute to morbidity and graft loss, and prior studies suggest they may be…2019 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Human Kidneys without an Oxygen Carrier
Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a promising strategy for pre-transplant reconditioning and viability assessment of marginal renal grafts. All current clinical kidney NMP protocols…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Implications of Donor Proteinuria in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplantation
Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada
*Purpose: The implications of pre-terminal donor urinalysis findings on post-transplant kidney graft survival has not been previously explored. An abnormal donor urinalysis may reflect donor…2019 American Transplant Congress
Development of an Aggressiveness Report Card
*Purpose: Use of suboptimal kidneys (SOKs) is not uniform across centers. We hypothesize that creating an aggressiveness report card (ARC) that provides surgeons with timely…
