What is kidney transplant

• A kidney transplant is a surgery to place
  a healthy kidney from a donor into your body. A
  donor is a living person or a person who has just
  died, most often a family member. A kidney from
  someone who has just died is a deceased donor
  kidney. A kidney from a living person is a living
  donor kidney. The transplanted kidney takes over
  the job of filtering your blood. Kidney
  transplant is done by Nephrologists.

What are the different types of kidney transplant?

• Different types of kidney transplant are
• Deceased-donor kidney transplant
• Living-donor kidney transplant
• Pre-emptive kidney transplant
• Deceased-donor kidney transplant
• A deceased-donor kidney transplant is done when a
  kidney from someone who has recently died is
  removed with consent of the family and placed in
  a recipient whose kidneys have failed and no
  longer function properly and is in need of kidney
  transplantation.

What are the different types of kidney transplant?

• Living-donor kidney transplant
• A living-donor kidney transplant is done by
  the removal of a kidney from a living donor and
  placement into a recipient whose kidneys no
  longer function properly. Only one donated kidney
  is needed to replace two failed kidneys, which
  makes living-donor kidney transplant an
  alternative to deceased-donor kidney transplant.
• Pre-emptive kidney transplant
• A pre-emptive kidney transplant is a kidney
  transplant that takes place before your kidney
  function deteriorates to the point of needing
  dialysis to replace the normal filtering function
  of the kidneys.

Why Kidney Transplant is done?

• A kidney transplant is mostly the treatment of
  choice for kidney failure compared to a lifetime
  on dialysis. A kidney transplant can
  treat chronic kidney disease with glomerular
  filtration rate (GFR, a measure of kidney
  function) less than or equal to 20 ml/min and
  end-stage renal disease to help you feel better
  and live longer.
• Compared to dialysis, kidney transplant is
  associated with
• Better quality of life
• Lower risk of death
• Fewer dietary restrictions
• Lower treatment cost

What are the risks associated with Kidney
Transplant?

• Kidney transplant surgery carries a risk of
  significant complications, including
• Blood clots
• Bleeding
• Leaking from or blockage of the tube (ureter)
  that links the kidney to the bladder
• Infection
• Failure of the donated kidney
• Rejection of the donated kidney
• An infection or cancer that can be transmitted
  with the donated kidney
• Death, heart attack and stroke

7
How long do kidney transplants last?

• There are a number of factors which affect how
  long a transplanted kidney lasts.
• These factors include whether or not the kidney
  came from a living donor, how well the kidney is
  matched in terms of blood group and tissue type,
  and the age and overall health of the person
  receiving the donation.
• Overall, average kidney survival times are
• 1 year - about 95
• 5 years - about 85-90
• 10 years - about 75
