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

Introduction: 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, cadaveric transplant patients who had received transplantation were included. The data were collected from documents of donor patients, evaluation of blood and urine tests, and the follow-up patient in documents. Required studies include height, weight, BMI, age and recipient, donor and recipient, blood group and RH donor and recipient, familial donor and recipient ratio, 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.]. Result: 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. Also, no statically significant relationship was observed between gender and age of kidney donor and recipient with renal transplant survival. Conclusion: kidney transplantation is the most appropriate treatment option for ESRD patients that leads to better survival and improved quality of life.
