Survival rate of recipients of kidney transplantation from Cadaver donors in Tabriz transplant patients in Imam Reza Hospital during the last 5 years

Abstract

Determining the efficacy of this procedure and determining the survival rate of patients after transplant surgery and determining the role of some factors in this survival is important. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of cadaveric donor kidney transplant recipients in transplant patients of Imam Reza Hospital in Tabriz during the last 5 years. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, all cadaveric transplant patients who had received transplantation over the past 5 years were included. Patients are usually hospitalized for about 2 weeks after transplantation and monitored daily. Then they go for exams once a week, once every two weeks until the third month, and finally every two months. Using the patient record, a form of data collection from transplant patients and kidney donor records was completed and the patient trials and follow-up recorded in the form were included in the form. Required studies include height (transplantation time), weight (transplantation time), BMI (transplantation time), age and recipient (transplantation time), donor and recipient, blood group and RH donor and recipient, familial donor and recipient ratio (Family and nonfamily), donor and recipient side, duration of dialysis, year of transplantation, duration of transplantation, duration of patient survival, other medications (heart drugs, hypertension, aspirin, lipid lowering, etc.). Results: In the present study, the survival rates of kidney transplantation at 1, 2, 3, and 5 years were 97%, 90.9%, 79.1% and 67%, respectively. Patients 1, 2, 3 and 5 years survival rate were 98%, 95.5%, 90.9% and 87.4%, respectively. In renal transplant recipients, mean ± SD of hemodialysis was 3.55±1.15 years with a mean of 4 years. The minimum duration of dialysis was 2 years and the maximum duration was 5 years. The highest frequency of blood group was related to O positive blood group with frequency of 31 cases (31%).
