S. Jain,¹ R. Plenter,¹ T. Nydam,¹ C. Ruller,¹ C. Edelstein,^1,2 A. Jani.^1,2
¹University of Colorado, Aurora, CO; ²Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Denver, CO.
Background: Delayed graft function (DGF) independently predicts reduced 5 yr kidney transplant survival. Treatments of DGF are lacking. Cold ischemia (CI) is a significant risk…
