Comparación de perfil renal de pacientes sometidos a trasplante de riñón de donante cadavérico vs donante vivo en el Hospital Teodoro Maldonado Carbo desde enero 2015-enero 2019.

Abstract

Kidney transplantation is considered a surgical procedure in which a diseased kidney is replaced by a healthy kidney, also considered the last step in the treatment of patients with chronic kidney failure. There are two types of transplant, living donor and cadaveric donor. The general objective of this study is to determine through the renal profile the type of donor that is linked to a better evolution of the patient after a kidney transplant. Therefore, an observational and analytical cohort study was carried out with a universe of 121 patients who underwent a kidney transplant, either from a cadaveric donor or a living donor, accompanied by comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and renal lithiasis that had controls with laboratory tests of urea, creatinine, glomerular filtration rate, hemoglobin and hematocrit at six months and one year after transplantation at the Teodoro Maldonado carbo hospital during the year 2015 to 2019. Regarding the results based on laboratory tests especially in urea six months after cadaveric donor with an average of 59.26 and living donor with 38.50. This concludes that the living donor kidney transplant has a better prognosis than the cadaveric donor according to the controls by post-transplant laboratory examination.
