TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Kidney Transplant Recipient Evaluation: Outcome-Based Approach A1 - Bhaskaran, Madhu A1 - Banerjee, Debasish A2 - Molmenti, Ernesto Pompeo PY - 2023 T2 - Molmenti’s Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation: Operative Techniques and Medical Management, 2e AB - Kidney transplantation offers improved survival and better quality of life for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, this is dependent on a successful transplantation, without immediate complications. A carefully completed pretransplant recipient evaluation will address modifiable risk factors (for resolution) and nonmodifiable risk factors (for informed consent or exclusion of candidates). Factors that could potentially affect both immediate perioperative as well as long-term posttransplant outcomes should be thoroughly addressed in order to optimize the benefits of kidney transplantation as a treatment option.
