by About Kidney Transplant
When kidneys fail, there are three choices:
1. Hemodialysis
2. Peritoneal dialysis
3. Kidney transplant
A kidney transplant is a…
• treatment choice which can offer freedom from dialysis
• surgery to place a healthy kidney from a donor to a person with kidney failure
Types of kidney transplants:
1. Living donor transplant – any healthy person can donate to you
2. Deceased donor transplant – a kidney from a person who has died and who wanted to
donate his or her organs upon his or her death.
To find out if you are a kidney transplant candidate:
• Contact a transplant center to request a transplant evaluation – you must be healthy enough
for surgery and have support people to care for you
Patient responsibilities after transplant:
• Take immunosuppressant medications according to the doctor’s instructions to protect
your kidney from rejection
• Have MONTHLY lab draws so your nephrologist can keep track of the health of your kidney
• Attend all DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENTS and follow through with all directions
• Have BIOPSIES and other tests as directed by your nephrologist
