Kidney Transplantation in Older Recipients: Preemptive High KDPI Kidney vs. Lower KDPI Kidney after Varying Dialysis Vintage
Nephrology and Hypertension, Allegheny General Hospital, Pittsburgh, PA.
Dialysis vintage is an independent predictor of adverse long-term kidney transplant outcomes. Transplantation of "marginal" kidneys also results in inferior outcomes. We sought to analyze…2018 American Transplant Congress
Viability Outcomes for Donor Livers Discarded Due to Steatosis Following Extra-Corporeal Machine Perfusion of the Liver
Background: Steatosis is the main reason for discarding donor livers worldwide. Ex-vivo machine perfusion offers superior preservation for marginal organs and permits viability testing during…2018 American Transplant Congress
Pre-Existing Allograft Diabetic Nephropathy from Diabetic Donor is Reversible after Kidney Transplantation in Non-Diabetic Recipient
1Hokkaido University Hospital, Sapporo, Japan; 2Sapporo City General Hospital, Sapporo, Japan.
【Introduction】The shortage of kidney donor has limited the treatment of patients with end-stage kidney disease. To use diabetic donor with normal renal function is would…2018 American Transplant Congress
Discard and Post-Transplant Outcomes Associated with Organs Donated after Drug-Overdose Death
The United States faces an overdose epidemic primarily affecting young adults who might represent a novel source of viable deceased-donor organs. Utilization and outcomes associated…2018 American Transplant Congress
Impact of ELAD C3A Cell Conditioned Medium Enhanced Perfusate Fluid on Functional Recovery of Extended Criteria Donor Livers during Normothermic Machine Perfusion
Reconditioning of donor livers by Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP) is already increasing the numbers of transplantable organs from the extended criteria donors. The hepatoblastoma-derived cell…2018 American Transplant Congress
Evolution of Very Old Donor Grafts
Introduction: The need to implement the pool of donors has led to the use of organs from older donors, as has been described in several…2018 American Transplant Congress
A Phase I/II, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Assessing Safety and Efficacy of C1 Esterase Inhibitor for Prevention of Delayed Graft Function in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients
Background: Delayed graft function (DGF)in kidney allograft recipients is traditionally defined as need for dialysis during the first week after transplantation. DGF is related to…2018 American Transplant Congress
Evaluation of Accepting Kidneys of Varying Quality for Transplantation or Expedited Placement with Decision Trees
Underutilization of marginal-quality kidney-organs for transplantation has occupied the community and led to introducing the idea of expediting the placement of kidneys for populations at…2018 American Transplant Congress
QPI-1002, a siRNA Targeting p53: Improvement in Outcomes Following Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): Cardiac Surgery to AKI Donors
Background: QPI-1002 has been observed to statistically reduce the incidence, severity and duration of AKI in a large Phase 2 study of AKI following cardiac…2018 American Transplant Congress
The Use of LiMAx for Evaluating Donor Livers on Normothermic Machine Perfusion
Due to the organ shortage, inferior quality livers from donors after circulatory arrest (DCD) are offered to relieve mortality on the waiting list. The threshold…
