Abstract
Introduction: Known short term consequences of hemodialysis (HD) include hypotension and increased risk of cardiovascular events due to electrolyte imbalances. Little is known of its effects on kidney transplantation in this acute setting. We wanted to see if HD immediately before transplantation has an effect on the short-term graft outcomes. Material: This is a single centre retrospective analysis of deceased donor kidney transplants between 2019 to 2023. Only patients with incentre HD were included. Data was collected on the last pre-operative HD sessions, donor and recipient factors. The outcomes measures (delayed graft function, serum creatinine up to 3 months and complications) were stratified according to the time lapse between HD session to the initiation of surgery.
