Background Standard-criteria donation after circulatory death (DCD) kidney transplants
(KTx) have higher primary nonfunction, delayed graft function (DGF), and rejection rates …

Background Continued comparison of kidney transplant outcomes between older DCD and
donation after brain death (DBD) donors is needed to safely expand the deceased donor …

Despite good long-term outcomes of kidney transplants from controlled donation after
circulatory death (DCD) donors, there are few uncontrolled DCD (uDCD) programs. This …

Methods We retrospectively compared kidney function between 64 DCD and 248 DBD
kidney transplant recipients. Graft function was assessed using iothalamate glomerular …

Background-objectives Current evidence based on retrospective and prospective studies
demonstrates that donation after circulatory death (DCD) grafts are more susceptible to …

Background Donation after circulatory death (DCD) represents up to 40% of used kidney
grafts. While studies have shown similar outcomes compared with donation after brain death …

Background Despite growing waiting lists for renal transplants, hesitations persist with
regard to the use of deceased after cardiac death (DCD) renal grafts. We evaluated the …

Background Donors after circulatory death (DCD) are an increasingly crucial source of
organs to maintain deceased donor kidney transplant activity when faced with a standstill in …

Uncontrolled donation after circulatory death (uDCD) increases organ availability for kidney
transplant (KT) with short-term outcomes similar to those obtained from donation after brain …

Background The use of kidneys from" expanded criteria" donors after brain death (ECD) and
uncontrolled donors after circulatory death (uDCD) has been warranted to increase the pool …
